Join Video Game Composer Yuzo Koshiro's lecture at Berns, Stockholm
The Japanese composer, arranger, and programmer, who currently serves as president of the game development company Ancient, has produced now-iconic soundtracks across a wide range of genres throughout his career, including The Revenge of Shinobi and Katekyo Hitman Reborn! Among the most notable are his scores for Streets of Rage, which were inspired by the house and techno heard at famed Tokyo clubs like Yellow in the early ‘90s and have gone on to influence artists such as Flying Lotus, Ikonika, Just Blaze, Joker, Fatima Al Qadiri and many more.
In a rare public appearance at Berns November 2, he’ll join Diggin’ in the Carts creator Nick Dwyer for a deep dive into his life’s work and a reflection on what it’s like to bring VGM compositions to life on stages around the world.
