Sorry to resurrect this thread but I stumbled across this pretty sweet vid of Princess Mononoke -
With the exception of anime that I didn't realize was anime as a kid (e.g., Speed Racer), the first series that grabbed me and got me into the whole thing was Last Exile. A big part of it was the soundtrack. Part house/techno/pop, part celtic, part military orchestral, I was fascinated by it all and went on a hunt to find the CDs. It's become one of my favorite soundtracks in general.
Did you catch the Alan Silvestri reference in OST 2?
Sorry to resurrect this thread
I was on another thread quite a while ago and I saw this pop up there as weak, I'm going to have to binge it ASAP.Oh Made In Abyss was absolute perfection. One of very rare 10/10 animes in the past... oh I don't know, maybe even 10 years.
i really like the soundtrack of made in abyss because its kind of unique and unusual, especially in eps 1. adding some hip hop stuff really suprised me, and its really good music. if you like penkin music, you should watch tower of god, kind of unique soundtrack because he's adding drum'n bass element in his scoreYeah you just go ahead and do that. If you don't feel like it's a 10/10, I call bullshit!
From the musical (the 3-part vocal counterpoint is god-tier of awesomeness):
Duel!! from One piece by Kohei Tanaka-
happy to see anime get some love on vi-control!!
i have tracks and composers to fill threads but this young composer deserves a mention
hopefully he will be noticed. name is Yukata Yamada
he just finished vinland saga (on netflix) and babylon (on amazon) but okay
the piece i am leaving has many names... that's the problem with anime soundtracks. nobody knows what is what... all you get is a CD that comes all the way from japan.
pretty sure the track name is "intertwined" though. based on numerous youtube videos and the tracklist on amazon
the part i like is very powerful and often comes up when a character is in a predicament and thinking of a way out
the tuba or whatever that distorted brass sound is got me the very first time!! and the strings add extra tension. as a beginner, this is such a powerful lesson on simplicity
oh i cut to the interesting part on youtube. feel free to skip
