The Street Fighter Lady Invisibility and Gender in Game Composition Andy Lemon and Hillegonda C Rietveld Transactions of the Digital Games Research Association December 2019, Vol. 5 No. 1, pp. 107-133.

The respective owners reserve all rights ABSTRACT The international success of Japanese game design provides an example of the invisibility of female game composers, as well as of gendered identification in game music production and sound design. Yoko Shimomura, the female composer who produced the iconic soundtrack for the 1991 arcade game, Street Fighter II (Capcom 1991), seems to have been invisible to game developers and music producers, which is partly due to the way in which the game is credited as a team effort. Regardless of their personal gender identity, game composers respond to themed briefs by 107 108 The Street Fighter Lady drawing on transnational musical ideas and gendered stereotypes that resonate with the Global Popular. Game music, as imagined as suitable for hyper-masculine game arcades, seems to draw on a masculinist aesthetic developed in Hollywood compositions. In turn, Street Fighter II’s music and the competitive game culture of arcade fighting games has been interwoven with masculinist music scenes of hip-hop and grime. The discussion of the music of Street Fighter II and the musical versions it inspired, nevertheless highlights that although seemingly simplified gendered stereotypes are reproduced within the game, gender identification itself can be complex within the context of game music composition.

  • Incorporating Video Game Music Into Music Education: Potential Benefits and Challenges
    INCORPORATING VIDEO GAME MUSIC INTO MUSIC EDUCATION: POTENTIAL BENEFITS AND CHALLENGES By Zechariah Dolan Emery Liberty University A master’s degree presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Music Education Liberty University April 2021 INCORPORATING VIDEO GAME MUSIC INTO MUSIC EDUCATION: POTENTIAL BENEFITS AND CHALLENGES by Zechariah Dolan Emery A Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment Of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in Music Education Liberty University, Lynchburg, VA April 2021 APPROVED BY: _ ______________ Dr. Jerry L. Newman, D.W.S, Ed.S, Committee Advisor __ Dr. Thomas A.Seel, D.M.A., M.B.A., Committee Reader Dr. Sean Beavers, D.M.A., Dean of Liberty Online School of Music i ABSTRACT This study examines the potential benefits of incorporating video game music into various forms of music education. Since no previous scholarly work could be found on this specific subject, this study relies on examining various aspects of video game music and adjacent studies on student motivation and achievement. The study is broken up into several sections. An analytical study determines that video game music has developed to the point where it is just as complex as other forms of music and has unique aspects that could make it a valuable tool in education. The study also examines the uses of music in games in terms of narrative and producing desired feelings and emotions. This section provides ample evidence that video game music provides unique and compelling examples of practical uses of music in media. The third and final section explores scholarly work incorporating student’s interests into education.

  • A Concept OST
    Scholar Works HON 499 Honors Thesis or Creative Project Honors Spring 2021 A Concept OST Samantha Taylor Follow this and additional works at: https://scholarworks.umf.maine.edu/honors_theses Part of the Composition Commons A Concept OST Samantha Taylor Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the University Honors Scholar Designation 4/26/21 A Concept OST was developed during my final year at the University of Maine at Farmington. This collection of original music represents the skills I have learned while studying composition and music theory. Some of the inspirations that helped me shape the sonic world I created include Nobuo Uematsu (Final Fantasy), Yoko Shimomura (Kingdom Hearts), Junichi Masuda (Pokemon) Jake Kaufman (Shovel Knight), and Toby Fox (Undertale). These composers are known for their narrative-driven compositional work for video games that fit into the Role-Playing-Game playstyle. My primary mode of research was listening to these game tracks and playing the video games each song lives in to see how they function in-game. My goal was to compose a selection of music that would emphasize characters, plot points, and game mechanics for a conceptual video game. This means rather than illustrating existing characters and stories through music, I composed the soundscape first and will use the soundscape to inspire a potential plot for a future game project. I’ve come to learn that the most unique thing about video game music is that each track needs to be able to smoothly repeat infinitely. This means that I had to plan how my music would establish a theme, but keep it interesting and engaging enough to be played over and over again.

WMGSO show- cases this music because it largely escapes recognition in professional circles. The result: classical music with a 21st-century twist, drawing non-gamers to the artistic merits of video game soundtracks, and attracting new audiences to orchestral concert halls.

Play On!] WMGSO.org | @WMGSO | fb/MetroGSO About the WMgSo The WMGSO is a community orchestra and choir whose mission is to share and celebrate video game music with as wide an audience as possible, primarily by putting on affordable, accessible concerts in the area. Game music weaves a complex, melodic thread through the traditions, values, and mythos of an entire culture, and yet it largely escapes recognition in profession- al circles. Game music has powerful meaning to millions of people. In it, we find deep emotion and basic truths about life. We find ourselves — and we find new ways of thinking about and expressing ourselves. We find meaning that transcends the medium itself and stays with us for life. WMGSO showcases this emerging genre and highlights its artistry. Incorporated in December 2012, WMGSO grew from the spirit of the GSO at the University of Maryland. The WMGSO’s debut at Rockville High School in June 2014 attracted an audience of more than 500. That same month, the IRS accepted WMGSO’s application to become a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization, opening even more opportunities for the orchestra to grow. To provide partial funding for its spring 2015 season, WMGSO received a grant from the Arts and Humanities Council of Montgomery County. About the MuSiC direCtor WMGSO’s Musical Director is Nigel Horne. Nigel is an experienced conductor, clinician and composer, with a degree in band studies from the University of Shef- field, England, and a Master of Philosophy in Free Composition from the University of Leeds.

Yet, is video game music a legitimate musical genre and market or a fad amongst game consumers? What can video game music offer to the music industry? Can the genre change the music industry as it stands today? What kinds of influences has video games and video game music had not only on popular music of today but also music business as a whole? When compared to its other entertainment counterparts, video games are the newest form of media, and gaming has grown at a significant rate in both advancement in technology and popularity over the past several years.
