Yet another requested collection. Personally, "BUBBLEGUM CRISIS COLLECTORS FILE 1999" is the only thing worth about it. The soundtrack works good in the anime, but in cd soundtracks, they are awful to listen.

Anyway enjoy! :)

I really like the music of the remake and the soundtracks are pretty cool. The songs are awful though.

If I want to listen the soundtrack, I prefer to see to the anime. Because it works better there then CD listening.
It's my opinion, not that I love the 80ts style of the original BGC, as you know I am open minded to these things, but the soundtrack is not enjoyable unless you hear it with the anime.
"BUBBLEGUM CRISIS COLLECTORS FILE 1999" is far better and much more enjoyable for me, not to mention those edited versions that sound much better, and vocal tracks... ok some I still dislike.. but they are somehow, better then the original versions. Also, my favorite tracks, are much more audible in here then in the versions in the ost. Yeah, they sound some, but at least they don't take too much time evolving. That's the problem with Korenaga. You get sick of his composing easily, because he takes too much time to evolve a composition. all of the BGC Tokyo 2040 soundtrack is like that. If I am going to my congratulations to someone, it will be to Yasunori Honda, the sound designer, as he edited a lot of the soundtrack to place it properly in the anime. He made an awful soundtrack sound cool to listen in the anime. Why couldn't he do the same with the releases soundtracks? :/

I think it's a matter of personal taste.
You don't like Hiroyuki Sawano or Tatsuya Katou. I do.
You seem to like orchestral scores. I can't stand them.
Maybe that's why Korenaga's work appeals to me more. Haven't seen the anime yet (including the original) so I can't judge if it works better with the pictures.
I like the music anyway. The songs are still awful though.

Btw, I would never go so far and call someone's work awful or say that someone's a bad composer just because his music doesn't appeal to me. I think it's a bit unfair.
I mean, there are several composers who are considered masters of their craft and their music does nothing for me. I would still never call them awful or bad. It's just not my cup of tea (and that's definitely not their fault).

Btw, you said that his music works great with the pictures. Isn't that what it's supposed to do? So he obviously did a fine job :)

Matter of taste, I do agree. Usually I like that experimental style. It was bad composed because it was bad done. The results in some points are good, but then I get sick of it. I don't know if in this part is just my opinion on me going to picky in how to compose something. It's awful because my ears can't stand much of it. The tracks I like, I start to like but, then "shit hit the fence" and it gets destroyed all of the mood. I was listening yesterday this while uploading, but I couldn't finish it. It was getting on my nerves. I pick the File 1999 over everything else.



I like the music anyway. The songs are still awful though.

I was not trying to make you feel bad because you like it. Tastes are not something we can really argue with. What fills your heart, maybe not fill mine. No one better then yourself can understand why you like certain things. So that was not my subject.
But I still find a big difference hearing File 1999 and the soundtracks.


The songs are still awful though.

Yep they are, though that NO OBLIGATION mini album was surprisingly good. Not the best the thing ever, but at least good to listen. Too bad it ends very quick :/


You don't like Hiroyuki Sawano or Tatsuya Katou. I do.
Again, matter of taste yes. I don't like them for what it does not fill me. I don't like Sawano, but the only thing I got to like was Basara. Everything else he did, I don't know. I keep on getting a sound he uses so much that get's annoying to listen. I don't know if it's the synths work or something but it annoys me a lot. Though I do give some chance to hear more Sawano, but so far results were not that good. Tatsuya Katou, I really don't like. I just know he lacks something but I can't tell what. And I can't hear his soundtracks to the fullest. I end up stopping and start listening something else to wash my my hearing. xD



Btw, I would never go so far and call someone's work awful or say that someone's a bad composer just because his music doesn't appeal to me. I think it's a bit unfair.

I get your point and I do understand that it might be unfair. But "awful" was the experience I get with it. He tried his best? Maybe, but it was not good enough for me. I know, they don't soundtracks they people want, and that is not even my point. I might be unfair, sorry for that, but the whole listening experience and enjoyment starts good and dies right away. That is what I feel with this.
I like the music in the anime very much. It's stupid, but I like it. I don't like the way it was released in the soundtracks.

No hard feelings boogie :)
