Lefance proudly yet humbly presents:

Sugie Hajime - htoL#NiQ -Hotaru no Nikki- _INCOMPLETE_ OST
Composer: Sugie Hajime
Vocals: Uzuki Yukino

Tracks: 16/17, it breaks my heart but it lacks the last track, the main vocal theme, by Uzuki Yukino, Hotaru no Nikki. :( I will make an addendum the moment I find it...

Thanks for this. I missed out on the physical release and had to get it from PSN, so I missed out on the soundtrack. Such a lovely game.

Haha I found this exact same thing and was bummed it lacked the last track. I DO have another archive with all of the songs but it's password protected and I can't get the password.

I'm assuming the track you are missing is "17 - ホタルの日記", right?
I'm pretty sure I found a copy with that track included earlier this week, I'll see if I can't retrace my steps and pull it up/up it for you.

chmint, yes. Track 17 is missing. I would be delighted to get it so please.

chmint, yes. Track 17 is missing. I would be delighted to get it so please.

This just in:
I hate to disappoint, but even though the source claimed the track was included, my copy is indeed only 16tracks. Still lossless format, but track 17 is no where to be found.

I'll be honest, I don't know anything specific about this release. Was there some other version of the soundtrack that didn't have that last track on it? Because I've checked a few different sources and they are all missing that same track. Sorry to mislead you. I'll keep my ear to the ground and see if I can't find it.

Hmm, didn't Red Alert OST have an hidden track (I can't remember how you access it tho'). Maybe there's a secret around our noses. What part of the game is track 17 playing? Credits?

Complete here, mp3 V0 only tho:

So I've got the full soundtrack in lossless now. All 17 tracks. I'm uploading as I write this, but my upload speed is a bit on the slow side. Anyhow, would it be cool with you Lefance if I just made the post here? I was considering throwing it in the Lossless thread so it might be preserved a bit better. Didn't wanna undermine your thread here or anything so I thought I'd ask.

P.S. I've got the .log, .cue and a 350x350 cover scan, just so you know.

NOT MY RIP

So let me just chime in to say, this isn't really an album for everyone. It's plays with a lot of ambiance with some light melodies floating around and a handful of sound effects filling the gaps. I guess ethereal is a good way to describe the type of sound present in a few tracks. I'll be honest though, there's a few tracks on here that I don't like very much, but with that being said there's several I found that I did indeed like and I'll be keeping the soundtrack as I think the pros outweigh the cons. I should also point out:
This is NOT the incomplete 16 track rip that was getting passed around on (from what I could tell) a number of chinese sharing forums, all 17 tracks are present in this package.
(The irony of that would be that track 17 is probably one of the better tracks on the album.)
Cheers.

Took the rip above and converted it to MP3.

Here it is (Mediafire).

Immensely grateful for the physical copies that were made; I was running out of space on my memory card. The Limited Edition was a instant preorder. It's honestly impressive that they even took the risk.
