Yuki Kajiura to compose for Zaregoto OVA

Ep 3 musics

- new sfx bgm (rearrangement of an earlier one)
- new sfx bgm (different than above) has some percussion here and there
[this one must have durated around 4 mins]
- new bgm with acoustic piano, similar to the rhythm of the theme music [this one is also long but much more pleasant]
- rearrangement of the vocals of the trailer bgm in a "haunted" style of music (becomes quite long too)
- old bgm with e-guitar and acc piano
- new cello / strings bgm (this kinda reminds me in melody the "running out of crisis", disc 4 of sao collection)
- new bgm with acc piano / violin using the OP melody from ep 1
Marchen
 
Watched the first episode a couple of days ago. I don't know how this will evolve, for now just seems another story of a boy surrounded by all kinds of pretty girls. Not sure if I'll keep watching.
The more I listen to Marchen, the more gorgeous it sounds. The kajiurago version is epic as well. For the rest of the soundtrack don't have a opinion yet, there were some beautiful tracks, not so outstanding as Madoka's, but way better (or at least, less forgettable) than SAO and BokuDake for now.
 
The ost has been pretty good so far. I like that there don't seem to be any sfx tracks; and the melodies are very nice. That string track towards the end of the episode left a really bad taste though.
 
^ yes there arent in the first 2 eps but there are 2 quite lengthy ones in my list above for ep 3

@Zinnia: Yes its boy surrounded by girls but its quite different as of plot from lets say sao, and there doesnt seem to be romance in this one.

^ ep 3 with subs

I suspect:
head maid Ilia / Shinya assistant of artist /Akane / but it might as well be the telepathy woman because she's the only who can read other people's minds so she must be the only one who already knows the answer to the mystery

^both of those are parts of other tracks from what I can tell. The first sfx track is the intro for the bgm that plays at the beginning of the first episode, and the second one is background noise for that strings tracks that plays near the end of episode 3.

Click to expand...

because it practically is.

personally, the music is nothing new and incredibly boring. I think the only good music is first thirty seconds of Marchen.
 
I agree for this 3rd episode, but the first one had some quite good ones.

actually I wonder why in this long talking part instead of this a**-long sfx she didnt make something jazzy with some touch of cello, it would fit great.
 
As the story has gotten more serious, the music has started to more closely resemble the erase/knk style soundtracks. It's a shame since as you said, the first episode had some good tracks.
 
For some reason with the rearrangement of the vocal bgm where they were at the table, I was thinking Sis Puella, maybe since it's Yuki... I don't know.

I like the new cello and strings one, actually reminded me of mission from F/Z.
 
That's a pretty informative interview. It looks like Kajiura only wrote 28 tracks for the show, and she was originally going to be much more heavy on the strings but decided to go with a more digital sound.
 
^ Also if Google translate doesnt fool me, she worked with this guy on Madoka Magica as well.

She should do something for that strings obsession of hers :XD: its limiting the instruments she's using, and makes the osts very samey.

digital sound = alot of sfx :(

28 tracks is good, that means that maybe they are going to be long (?) judging from ep 3, we havent had soundtrack with many long tracks since forever.

Yeah, she said the tracks were pretty long this time, and the music is purposefully more ambient. I'm actually looking forward to the official release if this is true.

ON another note, apparently she struggled with writing this soundtrack. Even though she enjoyed the novel, she had a hard time getting a good read on the tempo or the dialogue.
