Today is Taku Iwasaki's birthday, he turned 49. Let

Huh, and so it is. He's made many reading sessions of mine very pleasant.

He did some great work in MLA.

I like how eclectic his work is. Sometimes he's doing a war movie score, then he goes full WUB WUB

And then remember how he was cockblocked by whiny ackbars

He's my favourite composer.

That's surprising, never heard this from him before. It's synthy but sounds nice. Reminds me almost of Sahashi (Gundam SEED composer).

He really is full of different styles.

WHR is best iwasaki ost. gatchaman close second.

Standing in the Sunset glow is probably my favourite track of his

Iwasaki's experiments nowadays can be very hit and miss, but his orchestral work is some of my favorite. He writes music like it's for the most romantic 40s movies, and I love it. Contrary to his modern electronica, his orchestral music is much more classical and old-fashioned than modern composers like Hisaishi or Ooshima or even Williams.

His jazzy work on Ben-To's OST was great too.

Iwasaki is a weird guy. If you look at all his pictures he looks like some laid-back hipster DJ. But if you read his interviews and Tweets he comes across as being extremely intelligent yet cynical and mean spirited, like someone who is out of touch with modern times. His rant on Jojo was one of the most vicious things I've ever read from anyone working in the anime industry, like ever.
