My Take
What fascinates me about Jeremy Soule is how invisible yet unforgettable his work is. You may never picture his face, but if you have wandered the snowfields of Skyrim or the world of Guild Wars, his music is already lodged in your memory. From small-town Keokuk, Iowa, he landed at Square as a teenager and went on to score over sixty games plus film and the Harry Potter series. I have a soft spot for craftsmen who shape entire worlds from behind the curtain, and Soule belongs to that quiet, indispensable tribe. His melodies do the emotional heavy lifting that players rarely consciously notice.
