sapphire....: Get a shorter screen name

j/k seriously, tho, that incubus CD has pretty dumb lyrics, and fairly simple music. Not at all my thing. Too bad it's so catchy

Hmm I've been hooked on Japanese/Anime soundtracks lately for some reason... Picked up some Evangelion CDs and Ruroni Kenshin CDs and haven't been listening to anything else for like a week... Well, better buy more

Hey, dude, have you heard the Ghost in the Shell soundtrack? There are three tracks on there, in particular, that I find absolutely outstanding (the first, fifth, and tenth tracks). There's even a point, where this low whooshy synthesizer...well, on most speaker systems, it's absolute noise, it wasn't until I heard it on a good full-range system that I realized they were sort of a four-note motif leading into the main melody...great test music...

Do you know, or do you know anyone who knows, Japanese? I can't really tell you the names of the tracks, because they didn't really translate them...I think it says Ghost in the Shell, but I'm not sure, I would like a deeper explanatory translation...I'm kind of toying with the idea of getting those words as a tattoo in Japanese, but I would like a better idea of what they mean before I do, you know?

Also, do you know anything else that Kenji Kawai did?

Or does anyone else reading this, for that matter (both questions)?

DustyChalk,

I'll have to pick up the Ghost in the Shell sound track then. I've been meaning to watch it but haven't gotten around to...

Unfortunately I do not know anyone who speaks japanese... I did a quick search for Kenji Kawai and got http://www.sazan.net/anime/kenji_kawai.html might help you...

Did another search and found the track names... http://www.multimania.com/fierrots/g...l/ghostbo.html

Be forewarned -- it's like US$33 retail, and I haven't seen it on sale... Quote:

You haven't seen it?!?!? Only my favorite anime of all time!!!!! Transfer sucks rotten smelly eggs, but it's still a gorgeous film underneath, and, unlike Akira, I actually understand the ending.

Sweet! Thank you...there goes next month's paycheck... Quote:

Unfortunately, those are the subtitles for tracks 1, 5, and 10. On the back of the CD (you'll see when you find it in the store), there's a Japanese character, and then a "I", "II", or "III" after it, then the subtitle...but I do appreciate you looking...I'll keep going to those con's, I guess...oh wait a minute, I just remembered, I know someone who lived there for a while, and I'm going to be seeing him in two weeks, I'll have to remember to ask him...

 

[chych]

DustyChalk, I just bought it today for $14 off ebay so... heh

You bought what off eBay...the DVD? If so, that's about right, but you really gotta get the soundtrack, the DVD doesn't do the soundtrack justice...if you bought the soundtrack...YEESH...I gotta remember that...looks like there's someone selling a couple of these...maybe I oughta look for those other Kenji Kawai soundtracks on eBay!

Thanks for the tip, yet again!

PS -- Dam! They sure merched the grobschnitt out of that thing, didn't they?

 

[chych]

Yes, the soundtrack right here

Hmm so its $15.49...

Anyways, you can find a ton of anime things on ebay, soundtracks and all, for much cheaper than say, amazon...
