Dude how have you not heard of Yasunori Mitsuda before.
I've actually been listening to the Chrono Cross OST for ages, and if you would have asked me I'd have said that it was my favorite OST at the time. I had written off the Chrono Trigger OST as some lame lo-fi stuff until I listened to it a few days ago and my mind was blown. He was high in my books but this puts him top tier.
yasunori's really good...I'd say I prefer him over his mentor (Uematsu). even though I've only heard his music from the Chrono and Xenosaga series. In fact I bought the Xenosaga series because I knew Mitsuda's composed for the game, I was a little disappointed.
if you flat the sixth degree of a major scale(harmonic major) you can make the iii function as a dominant chord, that's more common.

Yasunori Mitsuda is up there among my favourites, along with Keiichi Okabe (the one who did the Nier soundtrack), Hisaishi Joe and Go Shiina. Recommended listening right there. : )
But yes -- on that subject, someone dreamed of just making her own versions of Chrono Trigger songs... and is now working alongside Yasunori Mitsuda. Don't forget Erutan, now -- she's the one.

Ooh I really like Joe Hisaishi, I need to listen to him more. I have never heard of Go Shiina though, anything I should listen to in particular?
I am totally jealous of Erutan now and if I can't be Yasunori Mitsuda I could settle for being her.
