I.E.

Hans Zimmer (Pirates of the Caribbean)

Thomas Newman (Lemony Snicket's...)

Clint Mansell (Requiem for a Dream)

Yes, video game music orchestraters count.

What's your favorites?

Clint Mansell is amazing. Lux Aterna (I think that's how it's spelled) is my favorite

 

[Zeanith]

Good call!

Mine is as well, by Mr. Mansell.

He is a god. XP

I'm not entirely sure about the names of the composers, but I am a fan of some soundtracks. P.S. I'll look up the composers later.

Star Wars (In general)
Pirates of the Carribean (In general)

Howard Shore (LotR)

Here are mine... I put down some examples of their works that you guys would probably know.

Koji Kondo - Legend of Zelda
Toru Minegishi - Twilight Princess
Asuka Ohta - Twilight Princess
Hajime Wakai - Wind Waker
Steven Reineke - Some concert band songs
Hans Zimmer - PotC
Howard Shore - LotR
Jeremy Soule - Elder Scrolls
John Williams - All of it!

I'll leave it at those... I only listen to orchestrated music really, mostly Zelda music but anything will do. Any other people here that are computer musicians?

 

[Zeanith]

Of course, I adore the Zelda and Kingdom Hearts composers. They are gods!

Hans Zimmer and the guy that does the musik in Harry Potter are my favorites.

The musik is amazeing in both of those movies ^^ I always get one of those songs stuck around in my head ^^

Of course, I adore the Zelda and Kingdom Hearts composers. They are gods!

The guys that compose KH and FF are excellent.

For most of Square's games, I find myself listening to the title music over and over before I actually play the game

I love the music Howard Shore composed for The Lord of the Rings movies. The guy is awshum. And there's Kuddly, I mean, Koji Kondo. Who is like a genius video game music composer guy.

And I think someone said that Hans Zimmer composed the PotC music, so I now like him too. I thought the music in those movies were great.
