Already mentioned Harmony of Dissonance. Iād also add Drakengard, Zombies Ate My Neighbors (basically unlistenable to me), Chakan: The Forever Man, and a lot of Streets of Rage 3.
It was revealed that Mamoru Samuragouchi isnāt deaf.
That RE track honestly sounds compositionally fine to me (not to say that it isnāt ~gurotesuku~) so yeah I can imagine it being more convincing with not hilariously bad synth brass.

unless Iām mistaken, the entire dual shock edition is new versions of the original RE soundtrack. listening to the entire thing, it suffers from poor instrument quality/arrangement throughout, but the basement theme is a particularly egregious example
Do the Evergrace soundtracks count as Grotesque?
Argument could be made either way.

Evergraceās music just sounds weird/eclectic to me, not really alluringly gross/garish

It also turned out he didnāt actually write a lot of his famous pieces so ???
what a hell of a career
countdown til someone shares that fuckin taz game again
Yeah not only was he not deaf, he was outright paying other people to compose other tracks by him. Didnāt this all come about after the Olympics or something had him do a song?
According to Time Magazine, yep.
the resident evil songs
are allā¦goodā¦
man, reading that article after having regularly interacted with people with hearing impairment,
Niigaki revealed that he had regular conversations with the composer, who seemed to hear just fine.
Thatās not really how hearing impairment works. IIRC the usual actual question to ask is ācan you have a conversation over the phoneā. I see no reason to believe that he can hear music just because he can actually hold a conversation in person.

Bad decision. Evergrace is a bad game with an amazing soundtrack
