This is the soundtrack to Dramatic Baseball Movie. I assume it is an anime movie that came out recently and the music is all composed by Kotaro Nakagawa. The soundtrack here does not contain file names because it came that way and the only track listing I can find is in Japanese. Other than that it is fully tagged and includes the cover art. It is encoded in vbr that goes from a min of 192 to max of 256.

I am also going to be uploading Zettai Karen Children Soundtrack soon as well and will post that in this thread, also by Kotaro Nakagawa.

I'm curious if you notice any similarities between dramatic baseball movie ost and any hollywood scores. I know one is obvious to me in the theme he repeats.

Just finished listening to Dramatic Baseball Movie Soundtrack.

First, as usual with Nakagawa, it's a very beautiful score, powerful, emotional, and superbly orchestrated and conducted.

Now, about the similarities, I would rather talk about pure plagiarism for the main theme, because it's an almost note-for-note copy of one of the themes of Titanic by James Horner.

It's not that important though, because overall the score is really good, and because anyway Horner himself is a renowned plagiarist who has often borrowed from others.

Now I'll try Zettai Karen Children OST (comments later).

A pleasant listen. Nicely orchestrated; perhaps the biggest draw I have to Nakagawa's music. And, true, the influence of the Rocketeer and the Rocketeer's own influence, The Natural by Randy Newman is readily apparent.
