MY WORLD


REVO AND SOUND HORIZON
Revo's real name is Yasuo Kamanaka, and he was born on June 19, in 1973. He is a Japanese composer that has been for many years working in videogames and anime soundtracks. He isn't very famous, but he's songs are awesome. The song I like the most is called ''That Person's Name Is'' and is from a game called Bravely Default. It is just one of many games he composed for, being the most important the games of the Final Fantasy series. He is the founder of Sound Horizon, the musical project who did the opening theme of the famous anime Shingeki no Kyojin. Revo has started composing music at the 90's, at 17 years age, and he post his works into a webpage nowadays deleted.When he was 28 he convinced some of his friends to create a musical group ( Sound Horizon ), and his first performance was in an event called Comiked, in Tokio. There the people sell and buy dĂ´jinshi ( A kind of Japanese comic books ), and sometimes musical groups, or important people go there to play musical pieces or talk about something. Sound Horizon first performance was a success and they start becoming famous ( Not around the world ). Was on 2006 when they start to compose and play music for videogames and anime series, and that like them a lot, so they decided to  continue doing that. Nowadays they cooperate with big companies like Nintendo to create the best soundtracks for his games.
