This is one of my favorite videos on the internet. Thanks for making this.

Bruh why did they zoom in on him like that 😭

and just like that, it was the 1990's all over again! You can see it in his eyes

At 9:30 Keiichi-san is like Giovanni Storti being overwhelmed by memories "Non ce la faccio... Troppi ricordi..."

This interview was touching. Seeing true artists realise the impact of their creations. Love it 🥹

I misread the title, and was waiting for his mother to show up to listen to his music.

天才な音楽 Earthbound was a masterpiece

"How great is our god"

anybody know what album is behind him? the red background with the woman with half a robot face edit: Kinoco Hotel - Marianne no kakumei

the sheer impact this man has had on my life, and he has no idea. but i see you, すじきさん

It's a shame that MOTHER never got an official NES release, despite having a full English localisation done.

Why am I in tears right now watching Keiichi listen to his demo?

woah, whats that girl with red background with a broken eye, it looks really cool does anyone know wheres from? her broken eye looks scary. hell does anyone know what most of the things in that shelf are? they all look like super interesting pieces of artwork. the only one i recognize is the phantom that inspired griffith behind his right shoulder.

Earthbound and its music have been such a meaningful and heartwarming part of my life. It's very special to watch this video and hear Keiichi Suzuki talk about his experience composing the music for this game.

Adore this man

35 Years of Earthbound. Thank You.

literally bawling watching the emotion in this mans eyes while he listens to his work

Could someone tell me what the album is on the right side of the frame at about 0:33 ? The one with the person in the red ski mask? I tried Google Lens but it didn't help, and I'm so curious.

Forever in my heart ❤️

my favorite soundtrack in the platform by far, what a legend

merci

i never saw a cassette tape on a cd jewel case

well I cried lol

This is awesome

For anyone wondering, this is from the "Mother to Earth: The Untold Story of EarthBound" documentary from 2022

Multi sub pls 😢.

9:18 lost

The almost imperceptible change in expression from 8:35 to 8:36 is immense. That one second transported this man's soul back decades. The ability to time travel was always with us if we just take the time to listen.

Loved his work with Yukihiro Takahashi (of Y.M.O) in the early 80's. The Beatniks album 'Exitentialism' has always been a favourite of mine.

wow

Earthbound Zero (Mother 1) is one of my absolute favorite games. TY so much for sharing this ❤

I first came across his work listening to Sasha & Digweeds Northern Exposure 1 back in 1996 (a legendary progressive house compilation btw). The opening track of CD1 is Keiichi Suzuki - Satellite Serenade (The Orb's Transasianexpress Mix) and it was even used as the opening track in 2017 for Sasha & Digweed's live gig at The Social (clip is available on RUclips). It wasn't until I looked up his Discog's page that I made the connection that he also did the soundtrack for one of my favorite RPGs from childhood. Thanks for all the years of wonderful music Keiichi!

videogames were better when it was made by people who had passion for their work

In case people are wondering about the album cover of the girl with the terminator eye: キノコホテル* - マリアンヌの革命 . .

The memories flooding back…

i first heard 8 melodies in smash, dropped the controller mid game and cried all over it... it's that choir.... the ultimate tear jerker

I liked the cardboard thingies.

Better tell him that the 8 Melodies would perfectly fit a Christmas Eve ball in Vienna

que bonitinho

I LOVED the music in this game. One of my fav games ever. I used to record the music on tape in my TV and listen to it in my car. That stuff was lit

What's the name of the albume with the smiling girl on the shelf behind him? Looks interesting 😊

We need a video compilation of the ads they did together

:’)

I hope they copyright strike you for stealing one of the best moments of this documentary and uploading it here

this is great

I think his emotions while hearing Eight Melodies had more to do with the rush of nostalgia and remembering such an enjoyable time from over 30 years ago. I bet he didn’t even expect it, honestly. This demo is different than just hearing the piece, this demo is literally a snapshot of the moment he recorded it, and I bet he was remembering that exact moment suddenly coming back to him, which brought on other moments with Tanaka-San from that time. It was probably overwhelming.

I only played Earthbound Zero aka Mother a few years ago for the first time. It was such a charming game. I know most people are huge fans of Earthbound aka Mother 2 but personally, I actually enjoyd my time in the first game even more, especially through a bunch of the leitmotifs and the lovely soundtrack. The Eight Melodies Theme is wonderfully implemented with the story and I adored the moment it was sung to beat the great evil. If I ever visit Japan and stumble over the soundtrack, it will be an instant buy.

There are other games that have more orchestral soundtracks.. the early Final Fantasy games, obviously.. Chrono Trigger, etc.. but I think Mother 2 is the peak of video game soundtracks as a combination of art and sound. Truly none of these games would be the same without the soundtracks, but something about Earthbound/Mother 2 is special. The game does not have the most impressive graphics and the music almost plays directly in to it.. all the visual traits that might have otherwise been seen as shortcomings are uplifted beyond charming status, because of the unique sound profile. It's such a beautiful game. Despite the fact that the game was ridiculously hard, I am honored to have been among the earliest of people in the US to have played Mother 1.

Beautiful and informative. Thank you.

Nice! Where the ghost run at tho?
