lengendary can i hear some of your music ? soundcloud.com/quandulumsoundcloud.com/quandulum here are some of mine. Always looking for talented people who have cool insights
An absolute masterful composer!!! MGS2 wouldn't be as amazing as it is without his music. The technical finesse and insane attention to detail with brilliant storytelling from the East mixed with some of the greatest musical composing talent and voice over work from the West. Pure AWESOMENESS.
Influenced me to get back into electro/acoustic music production, 10 years after I stopped. Great game too, remember waiting for release date and the game shop was packed. ❤
Hideo Kojima created a big game, and Harry Gregson Williams puts music & emotions into this game... hence making it the greatest game ever made... My fav is MGS2 & MGS3...
It’s so cool that he was able to use motifs in the music he composed, like the MGS1 alert theme reference in the tanker alert theme. That attention to detail goes a long way.
A truly Inspirational Genius of a Man. I get goosebumps when ever I hear the main theme. I don't have the words in my vocabulary to describe just how his work resonates with me. Superb!
The Sons of Liberty soundtrack ... is beyond a shadow of a doubt, is a masterpiece. Had Williams not been the composer they went with? The games impact would’ve been orders of magnitude far less. Perfect work lol.
I really miss this guy's music in Kojima games. he and Kojima were perfect as a duo (kind of like Christopher Nolan and Hans Zimmer) his music fit perfectly with Kojima's artistic direction. I wish he had also composed Phantom Pain and Death stranding, Ludwig Forrsel's music sounds very generic mainstream electronica, nothing powerful and memorable like what Harry did in the Metal Gear games
As a huge fan of Harry Gregson Williams, I really don’t think you’re giving Ludwig forssels work enough credit. I actually think his work with Phantom Pain is under appreciated. (Also I’m pretty sure Harry was technically still involved in some capacity in MGSV, just not as much as Ludwig)
@@Hack_The_Planet_ he only did some additional music for Ground Zero if I'm not mistaken, he was only credited there, for Phantom Pain it was all Ludwig. also I do appreciate the way Ludwig edits his music, it's all very professional movie like. but overall his music is pretty forgettable, he's got no distinct style of his own or epicness to his music. he just uses the same ambient or mainstream electronica
@@v-trigger6137 I think he did a great job with his heavy synth score highlighting the 80’s, I guess I can’t attest to distinct style. I don’t know his work enough and I think deathstranding and MGSV very different , so I don’t know if that’s a good measure. Harry appears in the credits of Phantom Pain specifically as a “producer” and Ludwig is credited as a “composer”, Harry mentioned in an interview about curating the soundtrack or something to that effect
He is the only person from the franchise that has never been invited to fan convictions etc lol (or maybe he was invited but he himself distanced himself? hard to say). and ironically he is the only person, I would like to hear tell about his experience and these games
I was watching the Equalizer (Denzel Washington) earlier, somehow OST of The Equalizer gave me a lot of MGS2 vibes, turned out Legendary Harry Gregson-Williams puts a piece from his soul to every music he composed. (I did not know that he composed the music for the Equalizer while watching it). What an absolute legend.
This guy is probably one of the biggest inspirations to me as a musician/composer.

He is a genius , holy man

This man is a LIVING legend.

I can't believe I never noticed that Olga and Mr. X had that same theme after all these years!
This was on a TV probably. Cool.
Just went to a lecture with this man. Brilliant dude!
Hero!
Thank you for sharing this :) PURE GOLD for composers and Metal Gear fans like me
DAW composing dates back to 2001 ago! It aged well!

My Hero

MGS2 soundtrack is absolutely god-tier
Hey, thanks for the info man! I wasn't aware of this! Now I'm even more excited for MGS V!
Wait a minute, if this guy made both the theme music to The Rock and Metal Gear Solid saga, then he is my favourite movie/videogame composer!
William S The Rock was also Scored By Hans Zimmer and Nick Glennie-Smith
@@callofdutyguy9 Whenever Hans Zimmer is involved, you can be sure the score sees a lot of hands. That's how his studio operates.
"... Snake - or one of the characters" This man knew of sussy Jack
I saw that Light It Up poster on his wall. I wish there was a way to get that score but it's not available anywhere
strange that no one has ever invited HGW to an interview about his works on the metal gear franchise... theres so many thing i would like to know
He's coming to my film music class tomorrow to speak what do you want to know lol
@@enthymeme4856we were too late 😢
He has been invited now

0:19 hah the matrix screen saver :D
3:14 Burial
THANK GOD! HARRY GREGSON IS BACK FOR THE SOUNDTRACK TO THE AWESOME MGS V!
hahah. that went well.
@@druidofthefang didn't age well huh
Harry G. Williams on Burial please
Are Harry and Sam Lake (Max Payne) twins? they look so similar
I hope this man realizes that his score for the games was perfect.
No prob man, I'm really excited too! lol :D
I don't remember any composer of any game name but I remember his name.
I do like No. 💯 😁
Music at 2:40?
+callofdutyguy9 happens before the Olga cut scene on the ship
i have the same mouse XD
Metal gear the best game so far
he did a great job as a whole but lets be clear that this theme was a balatant rip off of a suviet composer sviridov - winter road .
That theme was composed by TAPPY and was featured in a trailer for the original MGS. Gregson-Williams incorporated it into his MGS2 main theme.
you re right im glad he did tbh . i dont like sviridovs version XD . wish they just credited sviridov , would ve been cool
HIDEO KOJIMA !
