I wrote a lengthy post-mortem article for Square Enix Music Online, which is now online. It’s principally written about the scoring itself, with a slightly different point of view, I’d say.
One should think that as my box of mental tools, wide open. Also included is a healthy dose of criticism towards the catalogue music and its careless usage, but most of the time I happened to stay on the right tracks, it seems. After reading the article myself, I feel it reflects pretty well the train of thought and the amount of effort put into what I think I do best.
Read the whole article here.
Note: In the article, orchestrator David Christiansen is mentioned, but his name is erroneously spelled as Christensen. My bad, sorry David!
