Musical Portrait of Taku Iwasaki
From 1999 to 2009 and from 2010 to 2018

Taku Iwasaki is, at heart, not only a musical genius who composes and performs all kinds of styles, Jazz and electronics, but also an appreciator of opera and classic film music from the likes of Bernhard Herrmann.

That he also consistently writes opera pieces that are so good they leave me with my jaw on the floor the first time through gives the entire anime industry an air of true artistic expression for composersMany of his orchestal pieces, taken on its own, are among the best things Anime, or any media really, can offer musically:
Animoe (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bTmU27e36Uw)
Throughout his career he throws bone after bone what he could do if he would care approaching an orchestral score in a conventional way. Recently he seems to have mellowed out a bit on the idea of giving it a shot again.
But that's just one facette of his persona which has many more faces. That he can switch from street performer to sound designer to concert master in the blink of an eye sets him apart from pretty much all of his colleagues.
On that note another album from my side, taken from all the orchestral pieces from the Bungou Stray Dogs soundtracks, together making a masterpiece of an anime album with some gorgeus musical moments:
BUNGOU STRAY DOGS
