Baka Mitai's Composer Reacts to Fan Covers (Yakuza Composers Interview)
I flew to SEGA's Headquarters in Tokyo to sit down with Yakuza series Composers, Mitsuharu Fukuyama (Baka Mitai) and Hidenori Shoji (Judgement) to ask them questions about their process in writing music for the Yakuza games, as well as interesting stories from their careers.
Here's what they told me!
