He is best known for his work for developer Squaresoft (now Square Enix), having composed the scores for their role-playing video games Chrono Trigger (1995), its sequel Chrono Cross (1999), and Xenogears (1998). A self-affirmed minimalist, Mitsuda's influences include jazz, classical, and Asian (Indian and Japanese) ethnic music.
Born in Tokuyama, Yamaguchi Prefecture, Japan, Mitsuda began studying the piano at the age of five. By chance, he noticed a job advertisement for sound production for Squaresoft in an issue of Famitsu; despite a self-described "disastrous" interview with Squaresoft head composer 植松伸夫, in which he admitted he considered the job only a stepping stone to further his career and that he had never played Square's most famous games, such as Final Fantasy, executives were sufficiently impressed with his demo that he was hired as sound staff in 1992.
The release of Chrono Cross marked the beginning of his career as a freelance artist, which he continues to be, releasing both video game soundtracks and other original works under his own label, Procyon Studio. Other famous works of Mitsuda's include Mario Party, the Shadow Hearts series, and Xenosaga, a spiritual successor to Xenogears.

光田康典 Lyrics
We have lyrics for these tracks by 光田康典:
Radical Dreamers 幼い手につつんだ ふるえてるその光を ここまでたどってきた 時間のふちをさまよい さがしつづけてきたよ 名前さえ…
RADICAL DREAMERS〜盗めない宝石〜 幼い手につつんだ ふるえてるその光を ここまでたどってきた 時間のふちをさまよい さがしつづけてきたよ 名前さえ知らな…
予感 どうせ 嫌われるなら 思いきり 嫌われたい 飾り立てた そのやさしさよりも 一つの真実(ほんとう)が 聞きたい いつ…
最先と最後 They are alone in the oppressing dark, but Luminous power is…
海と炎の絆 Your fingertips moving gently to my heart The force of life…

Masterpiece! Thrilled to see this get an international release.
@ChrisPorterMusic
KiRite is an absolute masterpiece. Some of the best music Mitsuda has ever composed! This rerelease really is a surprise, but I'm disappointed the CD wasn't reprinted as well with the translated story. Well, I've owned the Japanese copy of the CD since it was first released in 2005, but I would have loved it if I could recommend it to some of my friends who don't buy vinyl. Either way, congrats on getting the rights to this amazing album and I wish you luck on sales. More people getting to hear KiRite is always a good thing!

@RobbyHuang
