Since people have been talking about his songs in the V4 thread lately, I decided to make this thread. he makes a lot of great music, but some under his name have nearly the same BPM and that gets old.

So, discuss. His latest song is called "Slang", an Extra Rush Lv1 song in V4. At least it's 180 BPM now.

Oh, and before everybody thinks that his first song was Dragon Blade, you are wrong.

Dragon Blade was quite good......but too bad it's overplayed.

Ring wasn't bad either.....while for some reason, I hate Atlante (maybe due to its bastardous extreme note chart). I say that the best song from him (IMHO) is still Purple Storm. Now that I believe is a wonderfully composed work of art

He is indeed a good composer (and it only took him a few mixes to reach this status)

EDIT: Wahoo, 400th post

Am I the only one who finds Kozo's musical relationship with Anna Vieste analogous to Ono/Suzuki, Izumi/Kunitake or vivi (from iyiyim), and Yuei Uematsu/Ishizaka parterships?

Non-sequitur: Also, Dragon Blade doesn't make you an otaku because it's NOT from an anime series; it's an in-house song. :P

Purple storm is by Yoshihiko Koezuka and Mutsuhiko Izumi. Kozo wasn't involved.

Kozo should make long versions of his songs.

I guess, that's until V2.

Btw, is the 'chick heroine in the bg vid' thread replaced by songs ending in '-ng'?

Since V3, there's Ring, while in V4, Slang was announced.
