Biography

Junya Nakano (仲野順也), a composer who creates video game music, has worked for Square Enix for over five years.

His works include Treasure Conflix (1996), Another Mind (1998), and Dewprism a.k.a. Threads of Fate (1999). He has also collaborated on the soundtracks to Final Fantasy X (2001) (with Nobuo Uematsu and Masashi Hamauzu) and Musashi: Samurai Legend (2005) (with Masashi Hamauzu, and Takayuki Iwai & Yuki Iwai of Wavelink Zeal). Furthermore, he created a small handful of tracks (amidst other composers) for Front Mission: Gun Hazard (1996) and Tobal No. 1 (1996).

Nakano was reported to have left Square Enix after his work on Final Fantasy X to go compose for Asmik Ace Entertainment, Inc. However, he is now once again working for Square Enix, having contributed several tracks to Seiken Densetsu 4 (2007). Most recently he has arranged the music in Final Fantasy IV DS (originally composed by Nobuo Uematsu).

Nakano has a very distinctive style, an aggressive ambience often used to weave ethereal and noble melodies. His most significant solo work was Threads of Fate (or “Dewprism”, in Japan), where he displays this style most strongly. The most acclaimed track on this album was “Passing Through the Forest”.

    Who created these fuckin' translations? "To the ultimate relic" is called in my OST "Rasdan", and I just found that it should be "Last Dungeon" -.-

    hi. sorry to disturb you... but don't you mind to spend some couple of minutes out of your spare time estimating music of a pretty good composer (imho) whom most probable you've never heard about? if you don't, here it is: Alexander Piterskiy thank you anyway.

    I never realised Nakano was involved with FFXIII until I casually listened to Desperate Struggle. At first I was confused because I thought it was "Enemy Attack" from FFX! Awesome guy.

    Threads of Fate is one of the most overlooked gems in the PSX era. It provided good atmosphere, good story...good soundtrack. If only I was able to explore that universe further.

    His two contributions to the FFXIII soundtrack were fantastic

    He recently left Square to freelance. Hope to hear a lot more original compositions from him. It's been too long!

    Yes, he does write some amazing pieces. I've found that my favourites from FFX have been widespread over all three composers, but I especially like some of Nakano's, such as Illusion, This Is Your Story and even The Summoning.

    Square give this guy some goddamn work. Much better than Hitoshi Sakamoto. I wish Masashi Hamauzu asked him to help with the FFXIII soundtrack.

    I'm with you on that Bumblebee, I really didn't think any of the most memorable or powerful pieces in the giant FFX soundtrack came from Uematsu. After all, the abominable cloister of trials theme was his work.

    have even noticed that nearly all my favourite tracks of FF X were composed by him, and not Nobuo Uematsu o_O wow this guy is real underrated, great music!!
