My problem with orchestral osts is they all kind of sound samey I have the same problem with listening to baroque music, Mozart, Bach, Beethoven, all the same to my virgin ears. On the other hand I can easily spot Nobuo Uematsu's signature sounds since he plays on a yamaha keyboard.

Just a nitpick, but I’m like 100% certain you’d be able to hear the difference between Bach and Beethoven lol

Bach and Mozart is like comparing ragtime and bebop
