このタイプの曲は空間を大事に作っています。音の左右の動かし方、音の入るタイミング、どんな音を使うか……など。サントラで聴くと飛ばしたくなるタイプの曲だとは思いますが、ゲームの中では度々登場していたのではないでしょうか。実際ゲーム内で流れても、本人も作ったことを忘れているタイプの曲です。メロディもないので印象にも残らないですよね(笑)。いいんです、実は作るのが楽しいタイプの曲なんです。

For pieces like this, the soundscape is important to keep in mind while composing -- things like the panning, the timing, and the choice of sounds. It’s the kind of track that you might want to skip on the soundtrack, but that will get used over and over again in the game. Honestly, this is the type of song where I’ll forget that I composed it when I encounter it in the game. There’s no melody, so it’s not very memorable (lol). It’s fine though. I enjoy the process of making these types of songs anyway.
