Joe Hisaishi, like lpfManiak said, is one of the best anime composers. Listening to his soundtracks (specifically the ones he's composed for Studio Ghibli) without the visuals is truly fascinating, because whenever I hear the music, the specific scene that was in the movie plays automatically and subconsciously in my head. I can actually FEEL his music; in my opinion, it's made to intertwine with people's emotions along with the anime's visuals.

Incredible Music! I love his music! :D
I must watch all the anime that he made music for.
