Ashura no Gotoku ("Like Asura") ~ Michiru Oshima (lossless/flac)

"Asura" refers to a beautiful and tempestuous Hindu goddess, but also applies to the 4 sisters in this story whose own secrets are revealed when they gather to deal with the secret affair their father is having. Oshima’s score is understated and lovely, and includes one of her prettiest tunes for solo piano (track 7). The music was nominated for Best Score at the Japanese Academy Awards. Tracks 1,4 & 6 are by Brigitte Fontaine and with their tribal drumming sound quite different from Oshima’s music. Fontaine also supplies the whispery French "vocal" over the last track. It’s called "Comme a la Radio" and might have simply been lifted from her hit album of the same name.

IMDb credits Ko Otani with the score, but the booklet clearly lists Oshima as composer (in English) and even has an interview with her.
The artwork, including the booklet, was designed sideways, but I rotated the cover so you wouldn’t think it was an error.
8 tracks total on Omagatoki CD #OMCA-1022. Released in 2003.

Thanks a lot. Oshima’s always worth a listen.

The booklet may clearly list Oshima as composer, but it also misspells her name. Make of that what you will. 🙂

Thank you share!

Thank you, Yepsa!

wow…you have brought a lot of new Oshima lately. Thanks for your shares!

Thank you.

Thank you for intoduce me to the Oshima music 🙂

The cover says "Michiru Osima" but inside it says (in English) "Music composed and arranged by Michiru Oshima." I have seen her last name spelled "Osima" before but I would think that is incorrect, since on her own website (http://www.michiru-oshima.net/) it is spelled with the "h". Maybe "Osima" is the Korean or Taiwanese spelling?

Thank you!
