AKIRA YAMAOKA (山岡晃, Yamaoka Akira, born on February 6, 1968 in Niigata, Jap… Read Full Bio ↴AKIRA YAMAOKA (山岡晃, Yamaoka Akira, born on February 6, 1968 in Niigata, Japan) has composed music for dozens of Konami video games. Yamaoka attended Tokyo Art College, where he studied product design and interior. He joined Konami on September 21, 1993, after previously being a freelance music composer.

He is best known for his work on the Silent Hill series for which he composed all the music and sound effects in all seven current games (excluding Silent Hill Play Novel for Game Boy Advance). Some of the music from the first four games was also remixed and used in the Silent Hill movie. He also played a doubly important role as producer of the third and fourth Silent Hill games (which were available for PlayStation 2/PC and PlayStation 2/Xbox/PC). His music from Silent Hill 2 was performed live in 2005 at the third Symphonic Game Music Concert in Leipzig, Germany and at the world-premiere of PLAY! A Video Game Symphony Live! on May 27, 2006 in Chicago, Illinois, where Yamaoka himself accompanied the orchestra with an electric guitar. As well, Yamaoka actively composes music for Konami's Bemani line of games, particularly, the Beatmania IIDX series.

His first original, non-soundtrack album, iFUTURELIST, was released in January 2006.

Career

He joined Konami on September 21, 1993 after previously being a freelance music composer. He is most well known for his work for the Silent Hill series of video games, for which he composed all the music and sound effects in the whole series (excluding Silent Hill Play Novel for the Game Boy Advance and Esperándote in Silent Hill, composed by 村中りか (Rika Muranaka)). Since Silent Hill 3, he is playing a more important role as the series' producer, also continuing with his music composition working.

Yamaoka's sound commonly contains strong melancholy undertones and generally identifies with the dark ambient, industrial, trip-hop and rock genres. Since Silent Hill 3, he also started working in collaboration with Mary Elizabeth McGlynn and Joe Romersa for vocal compositions.

Much of his work from previous titles has been compiled for the 2006 Silent Hill movie adaptation, directed by Christophe Gans.

His music from Silent Hill 2 was performed live in 2005 at the third Symphonic Game Music Concert in Leipzig, Germany. Yamaoka also performed music from Silent Hill at the world-premiere of PLAY! A Video Game Symphony Live! on May 27, 2006 in Chicago, Illinois, and accompanied the orchestra with an electric seven-string guitar. He also composed songs for Konami's Bemani series, which has also featured tracks from Silent Hill.

His first original album, iFUTURELIST, was released in January 2006. He also wrote the theme of 101%, the main show of the French TV channel Nolife.

On December 2, 2009, it was announced that Yamaoka was leaving his long term employer Konami.

Personal Life

Before working as a video game composer, Yamaoka initially sought a career as a designer, but instead became a musician after studying product design at Tokyo Art College.

In 1993 he joined Konami to work on the game Rocket Knight Adventures 2. When Konami began searching for a musician to compose Silent Hill's score, Yamaoka volunteered because he thought he was the only one capable of making the soundtrack.

Yamaoka stated in a 2009 interview that his favorite game creator is Suda 51 and his favorite video game is No More Heroes.

My faves, in no order (including some unreleased):-

1.Day of Night (too beautiful... teary eyes music)
2.White Noiz
3.Laura Plays the Piano (chords are the meaning of life)
4.A World of Madness
5.Eternal Rest (unreleased? From rating screen of SH1)
6.Heavens Night
7.Alone in the Town
8.Ordinary Vanity
9.Prisonic Fairytale
10.Terror in the Depths of Fog (what part is this from? Sweet pads)
11.No-one Loves You
12.Pianissimo Epilogue (SH2 Rating screen, dont cry)
13.Sun (from SH3, so beautiful)
14.Savegame Theme (from SH3)
15.Black Fairy (hidden behind the weirdness are some nice chords)
16.Fairytale Monster (Unreleased, SH3, like atmospheric 90's Jungle but with no drums)

Theres some beautiful tracks in all the Team Silent/Yamaoka SH games, but IMO, SH2 is the one with the most beautiful & deep tracks all in one game, Yamaoka at his best. As you can imagine... I'm a fan of deep chords LOL!

"Theme of Laura" is probably one of the most beautiful Silent Hill instrumentals... <3 (alongside with "Promise" of course). No wonder it is Akira Yamaoka's signature :) Silent Hill 2 might have lacked the vocal work of the other installations, but it definitely offered us some of the best instrumentals in gaming history :)

@caiosouza2655

Unlike other videogames OST's, all SH sountracks represent different emotions only using sounds, are just awesome themes, everyone with diferent symbolism, when you hear them you just feel the song into your mind, they are all an excellent themes for giving an ambient to the games, I don't even imagine a SH game without those awesome themes, they even are one of the important parts of the game

If people think Akira Yamaoka’s a weird choice for composer of the upcoming Cyberpunk anime, then they haven’t seen this wonderful playlist of his tracks to actually give you a taste of what his tracks will actually be able to bring to the table with the upcoming Cyberpunk anime in depicting emotion with the soundtrack.

Just listen to those guitar riffs while piecing how it syncs so well with the tone of rock Akira Yamaoka jams out, and I can perfectly see how it can portray emotion in the upcoming Cyberpunk anime. Don’t just assume a great composer and sound director from a horror series would not exactly fit in if you’ve not actually seen his portfolio of tunes.

David Bowie was always one of my favorites and anything darker he leaned into I really fell in love with that range he had.

I grew up thinking hometown had bowie’s vocals on it, would have been fantastic if that was the case, still though the projection and tone was to try and capture what bowie would end up falling more into artistically so, it’s like Bowie finally found that hometown I always throughly placed him in.

People responsible for arranging SH soundtracks are really in love with Theme of Laura. This fragment: 00:41:09 - 00:41:30 appears in 00:11:38 - 00:12:00 and 01:03:52 - 01:04:08 and who knows where else.

I love the music myself, it is very soothing sometimes but genuinely creepy at others. I have a lot of memories of Silent Hill games though, Downpour got me through a very tough January/February when it was the coldest it has been for years where I live and I couldn't afford heating or anything. The hours under a blanket with my dogs and the story of Murphy Pendleton was the only highlight of that winter!

@davidbarrera4686

Acceptance la mejor. Silent hill shattered memories me marcó muchisimo más que muchas películas que te dan un giro inesperado al final. Tal vez por el simple o complejo hecho de formar parte de esa película. El final triste..el del pasre justo que le pide a la chica que la olvide hace de la canción final y del juego en si una obra de culto independientemente de las criticas que los "gamers" hacen sobre jugabilidad y esa mierda. El juego en si para mi gusto fue una obra de arte que le rompe el orto al puto dios de la guerra.

Love this. Used to have a few Silent Hill songs, and now I don't, so finding this...perfect timing.

These games (especially SP2) were absolute masterpieces. So underrated videogame, so unknown quality art.

"Tear of..." me gustaba muchísimo y hasta ahorita sé cómo se llama. ='D
¡A escucharla de nuevo!

@imaboud

The first song made my cry.. remembering back when I was a kid and one of the first games I've ever played.. the songs are curved in my brain for my entire life. The good old days when all I have to worry about it Chyrel and how to find her to have a happy ending, knowing nothing of what'll happen to her poor soul. I thought everything will have a happy ending at the end. But silent hill changed me forever.

@allanfaridsantaellarivera3658

@CVginer5

I love yamaoka and generally the whole franchise....I can't describe it but I think that SH is far important and meaningful than just a game to me..it's more like something that you can benefit from..cant describe it lol

@brunanoronha1624

" You're not here" - love this song!!! Is the menu soundtrack for the hd edition silent hill compilation in xbox 360, which comes with sh2 and sh3... so nostalgic <3

Love,love,LOVE Silent Hill! I still have games I couldn't play since Hurricane Rita ruined my Gamebox. Now I have a laptop,I wonder if Silent Hill is compatible now? Any other dark,mysteries dealing with death and spirits would be a welcome suggestion. So many memories are flooding back with this soundtrack! Thanks for sharing!!

@donbot4234

You were in Rita... where are you.... was without power for two weeks after Rita lol... that sucked lol... we must be homies.... I am near Deridder, where are you.....

don

@bozmadde

you can play all the silent hill games on your pc with emulators. silent hill 1,2,3 dont even need emulators since they made pc versions for them.(1 is fanmade tough afaik but worked fine for me)

@angelaperry3592

don bot in Lake Charles at time of Rita, now in Sulphur. Lol, yes we're homies...(;

@angelaperry3592

bozmadde sorry I'm a computer nuby, lol. Emulators?

@bozmadde

Emulators are used to play console games on your computer. But as i said, you dont even need an emulator for the first 4 silent hill games since the remastered pc versions came out for them.

Esta genial solo falto " love psalm " es una de mis canciones favoritas pero aun así esta increíble

@demilung

This actually makes for a really good track to listen to, while reading classic literature.
I have little experience with Silent Hill (keep saying to myself that I'll go and beat them one by one in order, but played only a little bit of the first one).

@AnonymousAZ

The soundtrack is epic
