People don't get his quick little half step bends and vibratos. He's got a style that most people ignore when trying to phrase his notes. He slides a lot and uses very flat vibratos that usually rarely break a full step bend. Also when it's your own work, you have a better sense of what will fit and what won't. This song is his baby.
It doesn't make any sense, but for some weird reason, this just brought tears to my eyes. Silent Hill is beyond amazing, and Akira's music was the heart of the series.
Thats what this sad kinda nostalgic and so depressing music can do, akira is such an awesome composer that he can transmite that feeling of drowning in ur misery thru guitars and others string intruments
He is my idol. His work is so extraordinary and emotional. Silent Hill's soundtrack is so haunting,and he composed all of it. I wish I could see him play one day. He is what musicians strive to be. Right up there with Satoshi Takebe+Joe Hisaishi and John williams. (Although I like Akira's music more XP) He is the epidemy of music. A perfect composer,even when he does it from memorya nd with no sheets,A true professional. A work of art. Thank you, Akira Yamaoka, for existing :)
Actually Mexico is one of the countries where more videogames are sold... So yes, people do know who Akira Yamaoka is, and actually as stated by puchenyaka in the top comments, Campus Party is only what it is because Akira Yamaoka plays there, so everybody knew who he was.
Haha kinda sounds a little like a "smooth jazz" version at first. Must be the clean, warm tone, unlike the studio one where he goes for a more dirty, trebly one : ) Cool stuff, Akira's the man!
Well that's a strong point actually. Though i don't want an ESP =P I have much much more expensive goals in mind.....dare i say PRS Custom 24? hehe. I've never really been big on LTD or ESP, so i always thought that LTD was essentially just like a cheaper ESP (as Squier is to Fender in most instances). My main guitar is an Ibanez and my acoustic is a Washburn, and they're absolutely lovely =P
I love him too but its good he left, silent hill was over since konami handed over it to an America team, cause the team is just ruining SH. WHy stay with a company thats destroying what he had passion for.
He's such a soulful player. He's the one who finally inspired me to learn the guitar.
after all the covers I've seen no one can do it like him

Definitely agree! Major props to the people who tried to arrange it as a fingerstyle piece though, that shit would be hard.
This song is like the Smell like Teen spirit for Akira XD
xD
Why? Xd
@@Floppa_karamazovit does have a similar progression in the beginning
@@ahmadaljassem5068 Plus its by far his most popular song
what drugs are you smoking? to me if anything nirvana was the drunk druggie cousins, cheap lousy rip off of the great, Akira.

you're not alone. my throat constricts with emotion every time I hear that beautiful chord progression at 2:33

Bustin out Silent Hill blues on an Explorer. That's my boy. XD
何かこのtheme of laura は優しく奏でられてて、この感じも気分が落ち着いて好き
I'll make sure he plays the music at my funeral so i can die without regrets. Feeling so much listening to this...
Akira Yamaoka the Legend
Akira Yamaoka is a legend.
Thanks Akira Yamaoka for the music of silent hill 2
Long live Akira Yamaoka!!!!!
This is my favorite video of all time
He's such a cool guy.
I'm from Mexico and i am a big fan of him. I would love be there!
Lol "I'm god, like I don't give a fuck"
why is this making me so emotional?
#SilentHill2 was the best game in this series,also soundtracks of this game was awesomely.
Most say Silent Hills music is terrifying but some fans of the series find it awesome instead. Akira Yamoka is amazing.
I'm proud to say, i play an LTD too Mr Yamaoka, and i have written many songs inspired by your soundtracks ^_^
Ugh I love this so much
My FAVORITE song of all time next to Cliffs of Dover!
I LOVE YOU AKIRA WAHHH
By far the most watched video on my account
Un genio 😮
Without his music, it wouldnt be silent hill.
Best music maker of the world !

Melodic Guitar Rock/Metal GuiltyGearRockYou (ex) Silent Hill sound director Akira Yamaoka
Basically the fucking legend and mastermind behind Silent Hill's music.
Sound director of the Silent Hill series. He also did most of the music for the series.
Is the most amazing composer I've ever heard!
A god
i
I love him too but its good he left, silent hill was over since konami handed over it to an America team, cause the team is just ruining SH. WHy stay with a company thats destroying what he had passion for.
hey that is hetfields guitar
well the soing is worthy
Yamaoka*
o.o.....so it is. No surprises though; he has the money to get the real thing, unlike me with my LTD which is just a rip-off of the ESP lol
Why did he perform with such a sloppy backing track?
What's up with the freakin goofy ID?
*****, LTDs are made by ESP
Nope. ESP EX =\= Gibson Explorer.
For some reason he reminds me of Sungha Jung here
"""Coreanos """
рисоед
maybe he didn't give a sht about his audience,
What the fuck man?
рисоред
eh... what? seriously?!
fake...
That ending 😭
天才啊，太爱这首曲子
