Shiho Fujii (#8996)

Does "Shibo Fujii" actually appear in a game? The only hits I get on that are for Skyward Sword, in which she's definitely credited as Shiho.

No. Pretty sure that comes from a typo in a gamerip's artist tag. Although I think I'm the one who added the variation there because of that...

Nagamatsu did Mount Wario and the credits theme, not Asahi. The speaker changes in the middle of that paragraph.

It certainly seems that Nintendo is pleased with the results: players are given the opportunity to better appreciate the composers’ efforts by watching replays with the sound effects turned off, and indeed that’s something Asahi recommends for Dolphin Shoals in particular. “The piece used there is a longer version than the one you hear during the race. You’ll be able to hear one of Japan’s top sax players ad-libbing with great feeling in it!” Nagamatsu is equally keen to pay tribute to the solo composers. “I’d be really happy if players listen out for the phrasing of each individual instrument. In the pieces I was in charge of, such as the Mount Wario theme or the Staff Credits music, the tracks as a whole are very dynamic, and contain a lot of solos on different instruments, so I hope you enjoy listening to the unique voice and tempo of each of them.”

Can we have clarification of her Skyward Sword involvement? Her VGMonline profile does have a summary which seems to cover it, but I wanted another check. She specifically cites the Skyloft theme, but is vague about her involvement with field, dungeon, and boss music.

『ゼルダの伝説 スカイウォードソード』では、主人公のキャラクター（リンク）が探索するフィールドやダンジョンで流れてい る曲、ボス戦の曲などの一部を担当しました。特に印象に残っているのが、空に浮かんでいる町（スカイロフト ）のBGMです。ここはプレイヤーがゲーム中に何度も立ち寄るメインの場所なので、BGMを聴く機会も多い のですが、冒険の途中に訪れたとき、「あぁ、帰ってきた……」とホッとできるような曲にすることを意識して 作りました。ゼルダの場合、画面に奥行き感があるので、今いる場所の「環境」がプレイヤーに伝わるように、 音楽も奥行きや広がりの感じられるものに仕上げました。

Cool! Just from the Skyloft confirmation alone gives me some ideas about what else she may have written.

EDIT: She also seems to be talking about dynamic music on that page. Perhaps that would imply that she wrote the various songs in the Bazaar. Will have a look into the field+dungeon music as well...
