Ed Harrison - Neotokyo OST



i went ahead and filled in the blanks. feel free to reedit.



Edit: Thanks Duncan, this is all I've got to contribute to record-breaking August.



Download this album if you want to know it would sound like to walk through Tokyo in 2048. I cannot praise this album too highly, it's 27 tracks and each one does something completely different and unique while still maintaining a coherent overall theme.



I can't even give realistic highlights, as I'm looking through the tracklist I want to list pretty much every song as a highlight.



Will try anyway:

Annul and Beacon are probably the most complete songs

Hiroden 651 and Scrap I/O have fantastic electronic parts

Haka and Imbrium have a beautiful intros

Footprint has a great ending


Man did I fail at holding back.

i cant remember where i found annul and tin soldiers (did you send those to me?) prior to getting the full album, but those and scrap I/O and departure have stayed my favorites.

although the version i had was fucking FLAC or something and i couldnt keep the whole thing if i had wanted to. so i may redownload these links, which seem to be 320 or so.

I never sent anything to you, but I think you somehow found part of the album before finding the whole thing. I wish I had been able to purchase the physical CD before it sold out, the digital copy I bought was only 220.

Dr. Mantis Toboggan, M.D. said...

i know i had those two songs and then we discussed it and then i found all of it, i think. but that hard drive was not up to the task of FLAC. i still dont FLAC. fuck FLAC.

do you play broderlands at all? i got GOTY when it was $7.50 on steam last week but i dont really want to play online because i hate everyone in the world forever.

Dr. Mantis Toboggan, M.D. said...

have you watched this one yet?

There's not even any point in FLAC until you own absurdly expensive sound equipment though. At least that's the impression I've already got.

I love Borderlands, I'll text you my steam name.

Also you'd be surprised at how much of the that review applies to the new Deus Ex.

Dr. Mantis Toboggan, M.D. said...

whenever i think about FLAC i just think about david cross in mr show talking about how he will only listen to music on wax cylinders.

whats the point of having a high quality copy of ulver - nattens madrigal if its still going to intentionally destroy your hearing?

although i think this mirrors my opinion on high def TV, which ive taken a lot of shit for, so who knows. maybe im just 10 years late.

Ehren Osterman said...

even bassnec says the differences between flac and 320 are pretty unnoticeable, and he thinks 320's are just fine for listening.

and i still don't understand why you don't like hi def tvs....there is no going back after viewing an hd display and then a standard def display...the pixels...oh the pixels

Dr. Mantis Toboggan, M.D. said...

not that i dont like, i just dont care.

to use a completely inappropriate analogy, why is george lucas deleting puppet yoda and making it digital?

i dont watch tv, and i dont watch a whole lot of dvds anymore. so maybe im just outside of the umbrella where hi def is important. but...hi def isnt really going to improve...say, apocalypse now. it doesnt need to. so for my purposes, theres no point.

Ehren Osterman said...

fair enough.

also, read your blogger bioi with the tj plant quote..do you still have the original transcript??? that deserves a repost. i neeeeeeed to re read that

Dr. Mantis Toboggan, M.D. said...

hahaha i tried to fit larger parts of it in there this afternoon. no bueno. i nuked the names and timestamps and the quality parts still wouldnt fit.

go to sleep, schoolboy.
