  • Masashi Hamauzu (浜渦正志, Hamauzu Masashi, born September 20, 1971) is a Japanese video game composer who is currently employed at Square Enix. He is best known for his work on the Final Fantasy and SaGa series. Born in Germany to a Japanese mother and a German father, Hamauzu was raised in Japan. He became interested in music while in kindergarten, and got piano lessons from his parents. Hamauzu was hired by Square (now Square Enix) in 1996 as a trainee, and his debut as a solo composer came the following year when he scored Chocobo no Fushigina Dungeon. He has collaborated with his friend and fellow composer Junya Nakano on several games, and has worked closely with synthesizer programmer Ryo Yamazaki on most titles since SaGa Frontier 2. After Nobuo Uematsu left Square Enix in 2004, Hamauzu took over as the leading composer of the company's music team. He has also become a renowned piano arranger, and has arranged a number of albums, including Yasunori Mitsuda's Sailing to the World Piano Score in 2006. His music incorporates various styles, although he mostly uses classical and ambient music in his pieces.
  • Masashi Hamauzu ist ein Komponist für Videospielsoundtracks, der fast ein Jahrzehnt für Square Enix gearbeitet hat. Anfangs komponierte er Lieder für Front Mission: Gun Hazard (1996) und Tobal No.1 (1996), spätere Arbeiten waren die Soundtracks von Final Fantasy X 2001 und Musashi: Samurai Legend (2005). Sein Solowerk beinhaltet Chocobo's Mysterious Dungeon (1997), SaGa Frontier 2 (1999), Unlimited SaGa (2002), and Dirge of Cerberus -Final Fantasy VII- (2006). In einer überraschenden Ankündigung auf der Spielemesse E3 wurde bekanntgegeben, dass Hamauzu zur Final-Fantasy-Reihe zurückkehren würde, um an den Arbeiten zu Final Fantasy XIII teilzunehmen. Hamauzus Werke erinnern oft an Stücke von Chopin, Ravel und Debussy, da sie Elemente der Klassik, sowie Ambient enthalten. Er komponiert Stücke in vielen unterschiedlichen Musikrichtungen, was man vor allem in seinem Soundtrack zu UNLIMITED SaGa erkennen kann, in dem verschiedene Musikgenres wie klassischer Marsch, Tango, Ambient, instrumentelle Solos, sowie Jazz enthalten sind.
  • Masashi Hamauzu (浜渦 正志, Hamauzu Masashi) est un compositeur japonais né le 20 septembre 1971 à Munich.
  • Hamauzu ha iniziato a comporre per la compagnia creando qualche traccia (assieme ad altri compositori) per Front Mission: Gun Hazard e Tobal No. 1. Più tardi, le collaborazioni includono Final Fantasy X e '. I suoi lavori da solista includono Chocobo no Fushigina Dungeon, SaGa Frontier 2, Unlimited SaGa, e Dirge of Cerberus: Final Fantasy VII. E in un annuncio a sorpresa dell'E3 del 2006 è stato rivelato che Hamauzu sarebbe tornato alla serie di Final Fantasy, componendo per Final Fantasy XIII (Nobuo Uematsu realizzerà il tema d'apertura). Hamauzu ha inoltre prodotto degli album arrangiati per alcuni dei suoi lavori, tra i quali Chocobo's Mysterious Dungeon ~Coi Vanni Gialli~ e Piano Pieces "SF2" Rhapsody on a Theme of SaGa Frontier 2. Ha anche preparato degli arrangiamenti con pianoforte per Final Fantasy X Piano Collections e Sailing to the World Piano Score di Yasunori Mitsuda. I lavori di Hamauzu ricordano spesso le composizioni di Chopin, Ravel, e Debussy, assomigliando alla musica classica ed alla musica ambient. La sua musica incorpora frequentemente dissonanze deliberate che forniscono un effetto artistico e un'impostazione umoristica. Dopo essersi modellata ed aver fissato un'armonia, l'eleganza unica della dissonanza diventa apparente; all'ascoltatore la percezione della dissonanza ora si evolve in una percezione di consonanza integrante della musica. Eppure, Hamauzu compone musica in molti stili diversi, spesso utilizzando più stili all'interno dei vari pezzi di una colonna sonora. Ciò può essere facilmente riconosciuto nella colonna sonora di UNLIMITED SaGa. Qui, Hamauzu rompe le barriere tra generi musicali mescolando marce classiche, tango, ambient elettronica, assoli strumentali e jazz. Da SaGa Frontier 2 in poi, Hamauzu ha lavorato prevalentemente assieme a Ryo Yamazaki.
