The Genius Behind Fire Emblem's Music

[@Pavise]

Hey Everyone! Hope you enjoyed the video! This video has been in the works for about a year, so I'm glad it's finally out there! I want to give a huge shoutout to Kantopia ( twitter.com/maikantopia ) for translating passages of Yuka Tsjuiyoko's interview in "The Making of Fire Emblem" book. This video wouldn't have been possible without their help!

I didnt knew Together We Ride was from the first Fire Emblem, thank you for your videos, they are amazing!

[@magicmayro]

Damn she actually goated, good shit Tsujiyoko

[@blacksheephero2539]

I’ve been a Fire Emblem fan for over a decade and I’d never known this! Thank you for sharing this information. That part about a dusty CRT and a GameCube controller got me in my feels!

[@noishfanboy1141]

to this day it still shocks me that only 1 person composed end of despair and honestly the rest of the fe4 soundtrack which is one of my favorites in all of gaming.Also nice quality on the video I really like how well the presentation is good job pavise!!

Hello red crit cavalier

[@DragstonDev]

There are a good number of Fire Emblem tracks that make excellent use of the magical music theory combination of repitition + "call and response", which really helps them stand out and sound more memorable. For example, it's easier to recall the melody of "Fodlan Winds (Rain)" compared to a more free flowing track like "A Funeral of Flowers (Rain)".

As a FE fan and musician, i appreciate this deep dive into the production of the Fire Emblem theme. Don't see this often with the FE communitty.

[@jacobcapistrano6731]

This was really enlightening. I now know the one behind the iconic together we ride that caught my attention.

[@Dewottpoke]

so much quality and effort, this is incredible great job c‎:

[@Pavise]

Thank you so much!

[@Hiya8partyz]

Thank you! FE music is rlly underrated imo, and Yuka Tsujiyoko did a fantastic job with the all of the FE games she composed.

[@majibento]

This was really well-made, it deserves more views

[@kevinv2927]

loved how you explained the layers of the famicom sound

[@majibento]

I’ve always loved her music and FE, thanks for this! We need more female composers, I was ecstatic when I found out a woman made FE music💕

[@majibento]

Omg and she’s a woman programmer just like me 🥺

[@yuki9612]

Great video, I really enjoyed it a lot. High quality and a lot of information while not being too long and not too jam packed with useless or overwhelming information.

[@Not_a_Virus_zip]

I really liked this video style. Keep up the good work!!

[@Pavise]

Glad you enjoyed!

[@august...4847]

This high knowledge of music that Yuka has is similar too the humble beginnings of the Megaten Series 🥹, Yuka was a mastermind 😎👌

[@padamoce7642]

Wow such quality, i am impressed. Gained a subscriber here

[@ILikePopCans]

really great video, Yuka Tsujiyoko deserves to be more widely known

[@Outshinedsg]

Incredible story, I did not know the composer behind the early Fire Emblem games until now. If there is such as thing as the "National Anthem of Gaming" then the Fire Emblem theme might be it - and this lady composed it! She is definitely underappreciated. Genealogy is probably my favorite soundtrack among these, it's just brilliant.

[@SagaVonDrusus]

Such a great video, in a weird way feels like I'm learning more about my "culture" after watching this

[@pablopinedarivera9961]

I’m super grateful this videos exits, I love FE and it’s music, learning a thing or two about the creation of this wonderful franchise is wonderful. Thanks a lot for it.

[@DifferentFight]

The mans does not miss Been catching your recent content, loving the new direction but you blew it out of the park with this one chief

[@AllenWalker15735]

Came from twitter. very good video.

[@danilikesbears]

Incredible! My favorite part of the video was when Pat Metheny broke into my house and threatened to shred all over me until I let him influence my game soundtrack.

[@Pavise]

Yeah that happened to my buddy eric as well.

[@ariano1561]

Ths one about the 3ds thats exactly what i was doing while haveing the video in the background ^^;

[@colewatson4830]

FE Developers: We need some music for Fire Emblem. Yuka Tsujiyoko: *Playing Piano On Fire*

[@princepagan]

I was looking for more of something like the music of Awakening or Echoes, but damn this was a good documentary, very good job, I learned a lot! Inspired me to make a 5-track template in ableton to play around w/.

[@princepagan]

ps what's the outro track?

[@Pavise]

Home by Patricia Paxxon (from her album Nostalgia), full song list in the description.

[@marcoasturias8520]

So, the ost of the first game was inspired on pop music of the time... Now, that explains why the victory theme is so similar to We are not ganna take it, from Twisted Sisters.

[@Realmfaker]

Love these kinds of videos! Very informational

[@idreadFell365]

The best ones are from Fates, Gaiden/Echoes, and Three Houses

[@falchion776]

Great video!

[@mall1878]

If you haven’t already maybe do one about persona’s music.

[@glenn4958]

Nice essay. Sub

[@Wistfulness89]

What is the name of the song at the very end?

[@m.thorton9305]

because they want to compose actual music than ambience bullshit?

[@YoutubeIsAwesome]

Fire Emblem songs are inspired by classical music, check Vivaldi - Four Seasons (Winter) and tell me there is no influence from it...
