Yoko Shimomura (下村 陽子 Shimomura Yōko, born October 19, 1967) is a Japanese … Read Full Bio ↴Yoko Shimomura (下村 陽子 Shimomura Yōko, born October 19, 1967) is a Japanese video game composer. She has been described as “the most famous female video game music composer in the world”. She has worked in the video game industry ever since graduating from the Osaka College of Music in 1988. From then until 1993, she worked for Capcom, where she composed wholly or in part the scores for 16 games, including Final Fight and Street Fighter II.
While working for Capcom, Shimomura contributed to the soundtracks of over 16 games, including the successful Street Fighter II, which she composed all but three pieces for. The first soundtrack she worked on at the company was for Samurai Sword in 1988. Final Fight, in 1989, was her first work to receive a separate soundtrack album release, on an album of music from several Capcom games. The first soundtrack album to exclusively feature her work came a year later for the soundtrack to Street Fighter II. While she began her tenure at Capcom working on games for video game consoles, by 1990 she had moved to the arcade game division. She was a member of the company's in-house band Alph Lyla, which played various Capcom game music, including pieces written by Shimomura. She performed live with the group on a few occasions, including playing piano during Alph Lyla's appearance at the 1992 Game Music Festival.
In 1993, Shimomura left Capcom to join another game company, Square (now Square Enix). She stated that the move was done because she was interested in writing "classical-style" music for fantasy role-playing games. While working for Capcom, she was in the arcade department and was unable to transfer to the console department to work on their role-playing video game series Breath of Fire, although she did contribute one track to the first game in the series. Her first project at the company was the score for the role-playing video game Live A Live in 1994. While she was working on the score to Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars the following year, she was asked to join Noriko Matsueda on the music to the futuristic strategy RPG Front Mission. Although she was overworked doing both scores and it was not the genre that she was interested in, she found herself unable to refuse after her first attempt to do so unexpectedly happened in the presence of the president of Square, Tetsuo Mizuno. These games were followed by Tobal No. 1, the last score she worked on with another composer for a decade.
Over the next few years, she composed the soundtrack to several games, including Parasite Eve and Legend of Mana. Of all her compositions, Shimomura considers the soundtrack to Legend of Mana the one that best expresses herself and the soundtrack remains Shimomura’s personal favourite. Parasite Eve on the PlayStation had the first soundtrack by Shimomura that included a vocal song, as it was the first game she had written for running on a console system that had the sound capability for one. In 2002 she wrote the score for Kingdom Hearts, which she has said is the most “special” soundtrack to her, as well as a turning point in her career; she named the soundtracks to Street Fighter II and Super Mario RPG as the other two significant points in her life as a composer.
Kingdom Hearts was wildly successful, shipping more than four million copies worldwide; Shimomura’s music was frequently cited as one of the highlights of the game, and the title track has been ranked as the fourth-best role-playing game title track of all time. The soundtrack has led to two albums of piano arrangements. Kingdom Hearts was the last soundtrack that she worked on at Square. After the release of Kingdom Hearts in 2002, Shimomura left Square for maternity leave, and began work as a freelancer in 2003. She has built on the work she did while at Square; since leaving she has composed or is composing music for eleven Kingdom Hearts games and Nintendo’s Mario & Luigi series. She has also worked on many other projects, such as Heroes of Mana and various Premium Arrange albums. On February 10 and 11, 2014, Shimomura played piano at a retrospective 25th anniversary concert at Tokyo FM Hall. She performed songs from games such as Kingdom Hearts, Live a Live, and Street Fighter II. During the Beware the Forest’s Mushrooms performance from Super Mario RPG, Shimomura was joined onstage by fellow game composer Yasunori Mitsuda, who played the Irish bouzouki. She is currently working on the score for Final Fantasy XV and Kingdom Hearts III.
Her works have gained a great deal of popularity, and have been performed in multiple video game music concerts, including one, Sinfonia Drammatica, that was focused half on her “greatest hits” album, Drammatica: The Very Best of Yoko Shimomura, and half on the music of a previous concert. Music from several of her games have been published as arranged albums and as piano scores.

I'm making notes on how progression of this song reflects the new XC3 You Will Know Our Names (both songs comparison):
0:00 Start with dramatic openings
0:10 Openings finishes with a mini-drop, and the bangers start
0:22 Progresses into more hype!
0:33 More instruments come in both songs
0:43 Preparing for it... (With Synths in both songs)
0:54 Feeling it coming! (Trumpets in the OG, E-Guitar I think here)
1:04 THE FAMOUS BANGER DROP
1:30 it gets cut off but the OG goes off so hard so we can expect more insanity for the Finale :D
Recommend having both songs open in sperate tabs to check the definite similarities!
T-GREEN ROCK
Adrenaline is flowing through my brain,
Time is over for all the fun and games,
Got a real bad feeling about this,
Don’t blink for a second or you’ll miss!
In the midst of the heat, anxiety,
Barely breathing, crying out intensively,
Gotta keep my cool or I’ll wind up dead,
Got a powerful foe, DON’T LOSE YOUR HEAD!
Wait a minute, gotta calm myself, one chance,
Wait a minute, only invincible at first glance,
Hit em harder, it’s a challenge, but we’ll win,
Strike faster, cause I’m feeling like the wind,
Common, fight to your last breath,
And we’ll stand and we’ll face death, and seeeeeeeeee,
THAT WE CAN CLAIM A VICTORY!
Keep fighting oooooon, and oooooon!
And we’ll show them just how strong!
It’s the power within,
A strength that’s greater than him,
Who would seek to consume us in flames,
Keep pressing foooorwaaard, and we will fight evermore!
And you, will, know, OUR NAAAAAAAMES!!!
Firionnel
For years, I thought this song was the final boss theme or something similar. Then, I finally bought and played this game a few days ago. I heard this song when I tried to fight a frog who was 5 levels above mine.
DirtyDirtsGT
It's a song for charged enemies and some boss fights
T-GREEN ROCK
It’s a battle theme for unique enemies. Named creatures, essentially.
klop422
@T-GREEN ROCK The question is, do you know their names?
T-GREEN ROCK
Their are a LOT of them. The only one I know off the top of my head is Territorial Rotbart, and that’s just because of how ludicrously large and overleveled it is. The other ones tend to be forgettable when they’re only a tad more difficult than their unnamed counterparts. It’s usually an adjective followed by some random generated name. Something like “Paranoid Jimmy” or “Watery Frank”. At least that’s the algorithm I’ve picked up on.
Alling Brodniak
@T-GREEN ROCK AGGRESSIVE CORNELIUS
Dream Mondschein
What's great about this song is that the start is very threatening, panic inducing, but it becomes much more triumphant as it goes on. Because going up against a unique enemy running around in the overworld, chances are you're gonna get your butt kicked. But if you stick around long enough, then that means you have a chance. You got a chance to turn the tide. You have a chance to WIN. And suddenly this song is not about you getting your ass handed to you by some giant monster, it's about you showing this creature who's the real boss.
ElZamo92
OR, you’re 20 levels above that monster and you kill it with only auto attacks before the music swells up.
DismasThePenitent
Visions of the Future usually comes in around the 1 minute mark though so you don't get to hear that part that often, which is a shame because my favorite part is at 1:30
Hiperfelix64
Just like the name suggest, the boss will know our names.
