Koh Otani (大谷幸, Ōtani Kō, born May 1, 1957) is a prolific Japanese composer, arranger and pianist from Tokyo. He has composed the soundtracks to several 1990’s-era Gamera films, as well as many anime series, including New Mobile Report Gundam Wing and Haibane Renmei. He has also composed music for a few video games, most notably Shadow of the Colossus (Roar of the Earth) (credited in Shadow as “Kow Otani”), the PlayStation 2 flight simulator Sky Odyssey, and the PlayStation shooter Philosoma.

Roar of the Earth won the “Soundtrack of the Year” award in the United States-based video game magazine Electronic Gaming Monthly.

Well, at least you chose a good one. For too many people, the only anime they've seen is some crappy shounen, and then they're done for life...

The Haibane Renmei OST is beautiful too... Not as epic, but more emotional... Makes me want to see the anime...

The soundtrack for Shadow of the Colossus is one of the best ever made for a videogame. I own it and listen to it frequently. If you want the soundtrack but can't afford it or something, hit me up and I will happily find a way to send the files to you.
