Greatest Modern Day Composer ...

[Wislong]

Who do you think it is?

Can be a composer of Game / Movie -soundtrack, or General Composer.

Mine would probably be Peter Gabriel

What's you opinion ?

Peter Gabriel isn't modern day lol

I reckon Omar Rodríguez-López and Cedric Bixler-Zavala, they are the new classic music, todays Pink Floyd I reckon
Though score wise I'd go for Nobuo Uematsu, Masashi Hamauzu and Junya Nakano

Ummm... Queen, they composed music. Didn't they?

Fiddy'

(PFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFT)

 

[_Janny_]

I'd say Jesper Kyd and/or Akira Yamaoka.

Hm, I'm a bit torn on this one...I like Hans Zimmer, Howard Shore, and Clint Mansell. It may be a bit too obvious to say John Williams as well.

Personally, I give my favorite to Howard Shore.

 

[Anarchemitis]

John Williams, Daniel Elfman, Jerry Martin and Rachmaninov.

Daniel Elfman

Agreed, loved his compositions he did for the movie Kingdom
