Hirasawa is a fantastic artist, and certainly one of my favourite soundtrack composers. "The girl in Byakkoya - White Tiger Field" is a great song on it's own, and for free it's an absolute gem.

Check out this live performance of a song from Berserk, he's a literal one man band.

He did the OST for Beserk? Awesome. This song is just too good for words alone...

EDIT: I prefer the original "Forces" to the live version.
 
It's a superb film but that song was the perfect way to finish it off. I'll certainly be listening out for what he comes up with in future. Great stuff.
