はじめまして。ご訪問ありがとうございます。私はゲームサウンドプロデューサ＆コンポーザーの山下絹代です。
私は４歳からピアノを習い始めました。そしてショパンやベートーベンが好きで大学までクラシックピアノを弾いていました。でもそれはただピアノを弾くだけ。コードとかの勉強はしていないのでわかりません。
大学では電子工学を勉強していました。就職先は電子楽器のハード設計や回路設計を希望していていたのに、それがなぜか就職課の薦めで受けた会社がゲーム会社。そこで初めて作曲をしました。そのゲームタイトルは『悪魔城ドラキュラ』。それからずっとゲーム音楽を作り続けています。
そして今、私は新しい音楽の世界にチェレンジしています。このスペースは私の新たに始まる音楽の世界。
どうぞよかったら聴いて下さい。そして、気に入っていただけるとうれしいです。

My mixi ..

I made this video of my music.
"Tears of Mermaid".
This music is from the video game Medarot3 for GB. This is an arrangement version. The separation of the player(Medarot) and the mermaid in the sea is imaged. To defend the world, the mermaid sacrifices her life. I composed this music with that image in mind. It's an old story.
P.S
I was never an employee of NATSUME. I'm a freelance composer.
My music is composed from the feeling.

My job
Game to which I composed music. And, more.
