I'm very surprised ! I was expecting a full Koei Tecmo sound team or a collaboration between Koei Tecmo and Nintendo (à la Persona 5 Scramble and its collaboration with Atlus), but instead we have a collaboration between Attic Inc. (Kumi Tanioka, Haruki Yamada + Kenji Nakajo as a music coordinator), freelancers (?) (Reo Uratani and Ryotaro Yagi) and an army of Koei Tecmo composers/sound designers !
I think this is great news ! Tanioka is a talented composer (I don't know much about the others) and the music we heard so far is really good !
