Nobuo Uematsu speaks for himself in On the Record

James Mielke’s VIZ book presents the Final Fantasy composer’s career and ideas in his own words.

Nobuo Uematsu: On the Record arrives September 15 from VIZ. James Mielke’s book is built around conversations with the Final Fantasy composer, covering the career and musical ideas behind one of games’ most recognisable bodies of work. The VIZ listing provides the edition details, while Time Extension’s independent

feature explains why Uematsu’s influence extends far beyond one series. This is a book announcement, not a substitute for listening to the composer’s catalogue. Headline image: James Mielke and Nobuo Uematsu / VIZ. Official promotional material from the linked source.
