Who Composed Music For Rakuen Forbidden Feast: Island Of The Dead 2?

I love tracking down who made a piece of game music because those credits often point to the heart of what made a scene stick with me. The composer for the track in question is Laura Shigihara — she wrote the music for 'Rakuen' and is credited for pieces like 'Forbidden Feast: Island of the Dead 2' on the game's soundtrack. Her style really carries that bittersweet, storybook vibe that 'Rakuen' leans into, so it makes total sense that a haunting title like 'Forbidden Feast: Island of the Dead 2' would come from her pen.

Laura has this wonderful way of using simple motifs and warm instrumentation to make moments feel intimate, even when the subject matter gets eerie or melancholy. On the 'Rakuen' OST she blends piano, subtle strings, and vocal lines that feel human and close, which is why tracks tied to darker themes still feel tender rather than purely terrifying. If you listen closely to 'Forbidden Feast: Island of the Dead 2,' you'll hear that mix of minor-key melancholy and melodic hooks that stick with you — the sort of composition that supports narrative beats without stealing the spotlight.

Beyond just naming the composer, I love thinking about how a single track title like 'Forbidden Feast: Island of the Dead 2' frames a scene before you even play it. Laura’s compositions often act like storytelling glue: they set the emotional tone, cue your expectations, and make later moments resonate. Her work on 'Rakuen' shows how a composer who’s also invested in the story (emotionally and creatively) can elevate the entire experience. For me, revisiting that soundtrack feels like returning to the book you loved as a kid, where the music is the memory trigger that brings every image back to life.

If you’re diving into that particular track, enjoy the layers — the way simple piano lines, gentle percussion, and occasional vocal textures build an atmosphere is classic Laura Shigihara. It’s music that rewards attentive listening, and it always pulls me back into the game’s world with a soft, lingering ache.
