AFRIKA (Sample Only)

While waiting for the full soundtrack of Afrika on PS3, which should be out in a little more than two weeks,
here is a sample – two tracks – of this wonderful score composed by Wataru Hokoyama:

The tracks are available in two different formats and in the best quality I could come up with:

Apple Lossless (http://www.filefactory.com/file/d263d7/n/AfrSampLoss_zip) (.m4a) (38 MB)

Or

MP3, 320, CBR (http://www.filefactory.com/file/4fb890/n/AfrSampMp3_zip) (15 MB)

Both zip files contain:

Main Theme (3’48)
Introduction (2’08)
Website Snippet (0’41)

You can pre-order the full soundtrack HERE (http://www.play-asia.com/paOS-13-71-na-49-en-70-2z98.html).
(1 CD: 14 tracks, 1 DVD: Trailer, Making Of Score, Soundtrack in 5.1 Surround Sound, Photo Gallery, Credits)

Thank you! I can’t wait for the soundtrack. I’ll be buying it for the DVD. I had no idea that was included! Thanks again.

Yes, I did not know either before I found the info here (http://vgmdb.net/album/10321). If all the tracks are of the same quality, the 5.1 soundtrack should end up being a nice experience!

Although…Does that mean the DVD’s region coded? I bet so…crap…

Damn! Why are these soundtracks always so damn expensive? 30 bucks is alot of money.

There are ways around that. Generally a program like dvd decryptor is able to rip it to your computer in region free version you can then burn again to a dvd and watch on your players. I do that all the time when I buy Jpop albums that come with bonus dvds.

The soundtrack is out now. Anyone got it?

Anyone? Please?

BUMP AGAIN!

Wow! This is fantastic!:) Can’t wait to hear full OST:).

Wow, I can’t wait to hear the whole thing! Those tracks were awesome.

DAMN! I may just need to drop the money and buy this deal myself.

Thanks

I actually ordered this soundtrack. When I get it I will try to upload it for everyone.

Sounds intriguing! I’ll grab it and keep my eyes open for the full thing. Thanks!

Any progress on getting this? I’m quite eager to listen to the whole score. 🙂

Damn. I could kill a little bunny for whole thing!;) Really can’t wait!

and here it is 🙂

256kbps, not my rip

Thanks!!!

But…whenever I click Download Now, it says "Your download has failed. You have an invalid session set. Click here to try your download again."

Any trick?

It appears to work just fine here, but I’ll try and upload it somewhere else too:)

Ack! Nevermind. I had FileFront’s cookie blocked. That was all. It works. Thanks again!!!

and just to futureproof it a little, here’s a rapidspread link: http://www.rapidspread.com/file.jsp?id=b3bob7z1h6

Hang a big ol’ roger on that; your generosity is much appreciated.

Wooo! Thanks! 😀

Thanks a lot!
