Hum....
I have now three tracks that I wanted...Venari Strigas, Agmen clientum and Decretum.
I still need juicy Oktavia's Theme and Walpurgisnacht though. Long two months ahead of us.

As I expected, a light soundtrack -except battle themes-.
So OST3 with Okatavia's theme, Walpurgis theme, the last two BGM of episode 11 and 4 or 3 BGM of the last episode = ~8 tracks.

puella wiki seems to list 11 still unreleased BGMs in the main show. v( '')v

Ok, I forgot the Passion of Homura -and I'm really interested in this one-. Episode 7/8 featured an odd ambient BGM (is music?). So, ~10 tracks (we can ignore this: "Asshole playing violin").
 
ありがとうございます Kowz!!! My impressions follow...

Decretum - I hear a little of...Conturbatio, I think it was, in the background here.

Reminds me a lot of Scarborough Fair in the strings melody. Nice arrangement.

But why the flute AGAIN?? :bloodlust:

Agmen clientum - Like the percussion...strange how the strings are synth, though. Reminds me of something that Kajiura-sensei would've written for .hack if she'd had the resources she has now.

I think I've heard the screechy background FX before somewhere :ayashii:

Venari strigas - Koichi-san! :sohappy: And sounds like real strings this time round. Nice melody, a little like a Pokemon battle theme.

Wow, Koichi-san sounds amazing! :cheer:

The bg vocals seem similar to the ones from Gradus prohibitus :confu:

Signum malum - Oh, a creepy rework of Sis Puella Magica. Reminds me of Conturbatio again, but more with the arrangement this time.

Sounds like some new bells FX instead of the usual ones...

Amicae carae meae - Very The Velveteen Rabbit-esque. A little flat...

Is that a violin or a viola? It sounds a little deep, unless that's just because of the key it's playing in... :confu:

Incertus - This is familiar but unfamiliar at the same time. I love how the piano is playing single notes without much if any left hand work...it makes it sound very light and mysterious.

And that gorgeous music box... :shy:

Inevitabilis - Hey, Puella In Somnio on the piano! Now I can finally play it myself :ohoho:

Not bad. I like the original version better. The way this is written, the middle part (between the Puella In Somnio melody lines) sounds almost note for note like something from the KnK OST. Right down to the ending chord... :desksweat:

Serena ira - Cello :shy:

Cello :cry:

Reminds me of M25 from the KnK OST, but thankfully there's a completely different melody here. Still some long pauses, though, which are a little unsettling. Love that higher bit about 1:30 :cry:

Anima mala - :swt:

Very KnK again. I think there was something like this in Paradox, or one of the other earlier tracks...

Doesn't make it bad, though. It's basic Kajiura-sensei :plot:

Pugna infinita - Some KnK-esque sounds here too. I suppose it makes sense...both Madoka Magica and KnK have that hopeless feel to them, don't they?

What a tragic melody :touched:

Vocalise Op.34 no.14 - Sounds like Konno-san's style of playing to me definitely. And the piano sounds similar to the earlier piano. I'd say it's the same musicians, if not Kajiura-sensei's arrangement.

A bit of a rambling melody line, isn't it? I'm not used to classical pieces...haven't heard them in a long time since I quit learning them :ohoho:

The violin is gorgeous, though. If it's not Konno-san, I'll be relatively surprised :ayashii:

I can see why this got picked for Madoka Magica...it's sad but has a lot of tension to it at the same time.

Ave Maria - Oh, it's the Ave Maria that I THOUGHT it'd be, the one that the Celtic Women performed! Hah, after all that! :XD:

Okay, this has to be Konno-san. :touched:

I would've preferred that it was just played on the higher octave instead of playing it entirely on the low and then doing a refrain higher. It does go on slightly long. But then again, it's worth sitting through the lower octave just to get the higher one :plz:

Altogether, not bad. My favorites are Venari strigas and Incertus, I think.
 
「Incertus」が大好きです…

I've lost count of how many times I've listened to it :sohappy:
 
@moichispa..I've already made the contract with you....:XD:

Oh.. I love Decretum...so pity that it's so short!! (So..Sayaka theme..?)

Agmen clientum and Venari strigas sound far better than in the anime...even I think they aren't my cup of tea at first when I heard them in the anime..., I think I love them now esp. Venari strigas

Signum malum sounds quite weird...it's the bell's theme of Puella Magica and sth. different in the middle...

Incertus is one of my favourite...even it isn't outstanding.., but it's charming... a charming and mysterious piece...

Inevitabilis..another familiar theme..it's good...but not much impressing for me.. I prefer Puella in Somnio.

Serena ira.. It's dark...is it a viola/cello track, not a violin one..:confu:..I'm not sure about that.. I think I like it so much.
Edited: ok..it's Cello...\(^0^)/

Anima mala is another dark track...with viola/cello again..O_o...(I guess that the previous is cello and this one is viola..it sounds a bit higher..) It sounds so creepy..(give me Kyubey-like feeling..lol.)

Pugna infinita is good...but it isn't much impressing as Pugna Cum Maga in the 1st OST.

Surprisingly.. I like the inserted classical tracks.., even Ave Maria...it's weird..= =...dunno why now I like it...the combination of Piano and Violin is good. (even the fact that it's supposed to play by that dude instead of Konno-San..lol.)

My favourite came to Incertus..follows by Venari strigas, Decretum, and Serena ira

I prefer this one than the first ost...even there is nothing epic...(maybe just because it's darker..lol.) well...the other one with Octavia&Walpurgis theme might be the best..!!!
 
I like Decretum. Especially the strings. Yuki’s been using a ton of flute in her recent stuff, but I don’t mind it in this one.

Agmen Clientum: Epic percussion at the beginning. Sort of sounded the same for the rest of the song, though.

Venari Strigas: Played during witch scenes, right? Two simultaneous contrasting string melodies, the electric guitar, and a strong dance beat. An interesting composition.

Signum malum: It reminds me of Conturbatio. Except slower and with strings and percussion thrown in.

Amicae Carae Meae: I don’t remember where this is played in Madoka. :uh..: It has a tender feel, but I didn’t find it very memorable.

Incertus: Love it. The ominous, heartbreaking tone is just perfect for the scene it was used in. :touched:

Inevitabilis: Interesting cuz it was Puella in Somnio ~piano version~, but I found it a bit bland.

Serena ira: *SCREAMS* I admit that I was immediately biased towards this song as soon as I heard the cello. :XD: Except I don’t find this song that memorable either… the melody sounds like it’s all over the place. I do like the generous amount of lovely low notes, though. :nosebleed:

Anima mala: I don’t remember hearing this in the show. :confu: Meh.

Pugna infinita: I thought of “Pugna Cum Maga” and hoped for something as cool. :stars: But this one’s more sad than badass.

Vocalise Op. 34 no. 14: Has that classical feel. I’m okay with it.

Ave Maria: Kamijo-asshole played it, so I hated it the first time I heard it. To me, it’s bland and boring and emotionless. Still hate it. :uh..:

I feel the first OST had more songs that I was familiar with. This one’s a bit subdued and I don’t like it as much, but that’s just personal preference. They’re probably saving the epicness for OST 3. :V:
