Demon City and the first part of Michiru Yamane. Michiru Yamane, the soundtrack producer of Demon City. In the eyes of many ghost city fans, Michiru Yamane has become synonymous with ghost city, and in some ways, it is.

This time, we will talk about a very famous game, Michiru Yamane, the music producer of Devil's City.

In the eyes of many ghost city fans, Michiru Yamane has become synonymous with ghost city. Even if you are not playing a game, as long as there is a music with baroque and religious elements in the game, you will immediately pull the listener into the castle of the devil's city. Even if you haven't played games, you will be haunted by a mysterious sense of ceremony, as if you were in a dark castle.

This is Michiru Yamane's achievement in the series Demon City.

Life in Michiru Yamane is not very smooth, but it is also very colorful. Michiru Yamane was born in Xiangchuan County on 1963. 1 1 years old, almost in the fifth grade of primary school, began to compose music by himself. After high school, the contact with music has been better expanded, especially classical music and electronic music. Bach, Ravel, Power Plant Orchestra and YMO Band had a long-term influence on her, so that in her later works, various famous works flashed from time to time.

The Japanese Y.M.O band with international influence at that time. Although the band broke up five years later (because they hated being famous? ) But everyone is a great god, especially the following one, who is now the God of japanese pop: Ryuichi Sakamoto.

She dreamed of becoming a professional composer since she was a child, so after graduating from high school, Michiru Yamane did not hesitate to study composition at Aichi University of the Arts. It was this experience that laid a very solid foundation for her in large-scale symphonies, especially in baroque-related music systems.

Bach is Michiru Yamane's favorite and one of the most representative figures in the Baroque period. He vividly shows the characteristics of Baroque music, such as strong rhythm, strong jumping, diverse melodies, ups and downs, and strong religious color.

And all these elements, we can experience a lot in Michiru Yamane's subsequent series of "Demon City" compositions.

Here, the author sends the soundtrack of "Demon City X: Moonlit Night" to Amway. Even if you don't play demon city, or even a gamer, you will be reminded of all kinds of thoughts by the songs in the game.

Let's continue to look at Michiru Yamane's life. At school, she completed her master's degree and then found a job as a teacher in a high school. In Japan, the classroom is regarded as one of the sacred occupations by many people, but Michiru Yamane doesn't want to be a classroom for a long time. Her dream has been reminding herself to go out and look for everything and become a composer.

So after finishing her work, she frequently attended various job fairs and paid attention to all the work related to music composition.

At an enterprise job fair, Michiru Yamane found a very embarrassing fact that his major was too special. Along the way, only one game company called Kelemei was a famous composer, and the game company was not a good choice at that time.

The year is 1988. At that time, Nintendo's red and white machine (FC) was old. Although the game industry had risen, it had not yet reached the peak in practical sense. According to our modern view, this is a so-called high-risk emerging industry.

Although it is a job of composing music, what is composing music in a game company is completely unclear. What should I do?

Michiru Yamane thought it over. Although the game company is strange to him, no matter what the job is, it is also a job of composing music. The key is that the treatment is not bad. So Michiru Yamane made up his mind to attend the exhibition in Kolomei, and was successfully hired. Interestingly, Michiru Yamane has been working for 20 years.
