For over ten years or so game music has developed into a very large market.

I think that American people really know how to pursue fun, they really know how to have a good time. Japanese are somewhat more reserved than Americans, so I'm jealous.

However now we can create a sound that can truly startle someone and in terms of sound effects I think the environment that we are in now has improved dramatically.

So I don't really have a clear plan, in terms of music, as to where I want to head in the future.

I always begin to compose the melody first.

The second album of Black Mages is currently in the process of recording and the basic tracks have already been completed. Hopefully sometime in the future we will be able to have a concert.

I receive more fan mail from the females.
