Dragon Ball Z + Bruce Faulconer = GOAT

[Jazzy B.]

This is even a discussion

Look at how the music enhances this scene right here




That Vegeta theme

The only people who disagree are anime weaboos

 

[Money Be Green]

Best theme

 

[Doomsday]

I think they were just following suit from the shytty precedent the ocean dub set before they got the rights. ocean dub changed the score first, "americanized" the script and censored a lot of goofy shyt so I think they just figured that's what they had to do to sell it in america. all of funi's dubs they put out around the same time and after (like yu yu hakusho) were great

Ocean dub was fire.

It's a strawman take; if you wanna criticize people for taking credit for work that's not theirs when it comes to DB's music... why not talk about the "faithful" Japanese composers that straight up plagiarized for the entirety of Kai and the videogame soundtracks

That was Kenji Yamamoto, dumbass

SHunsuke Kikcuhi composed all of DB and DBZ, Kenji did the video games and Kai

I think Faulconer's score played a big part in Dragon Ball Z blowing up in America. I just don't see it happening with the original score, which sounded like it was from an old Godzilla movie. This isn't a diss to those Japanese composers because I actually like a lot of the songs, but the sound itself was dated and would've been out of place on TV in the what, early 2000s when it aired on CN. They had to change it to something if they wanted the show to have a chance, something more suitable for the time.

Dude's name only comes up TEN times

I gotta stop calling it Faulconer's soundtrack. That nikka didn't do shyt, damn. I'll just call it the Funi soundtrack, I guess.

First three movies aired on Toonami with the Japanese music and nobody ever complained

Is that a CD you can buy with all that music on it?

 

[Jazzy B.]

Weaboos pretending the Faulconer soundtrack didn't enhance that scene and have you hyped and ready to see them fight

 

[The Fade]

And the fact that all them drums are programmed by hand is crazy
