Original (https://mega.nz/#!qUZk0Jqa!mNHOgXdfuZ8dwGeAmyR5UiJ_6ili0ExMc_ctovwbeas) / Remastered (https://mega.nz/#!WI4C2DSZ!6NbLh82N-twqvK_lF0_R0aydbjbvXJzt10nZRxj4UvI)

This is a remastering project I had stored for quite some time but I thought I might as well share it. It’s everything orchestral from all the soundtracks and the movie. I matched the accoustics more with the 70s recordings, which were more wet, as well as modern Hollywood accoustics. I hope you find it enjoyable as an alteranate listening through the score. Everything is properly tagged.
Space Battleship Yamato 2199 and 2202 are 60s and 70s Hollywood TV scoring par excellence and rock your socks off if you’re in the right mood for some anachronistic joyride, like its yesteryear again. Vibraphone with rotor on, Funk and Disco strings, (alto) flute upfront and baller brass. Akira Miyagawa arranged the music of his father, a 40 year legacy, as well as composed some original material, that all together are a giant homage to the original Star Trek from the 60s. The music was arranged and mixed to sound like an old Star Trek show, just with modern accoustic and even the new material was taken from episodes of Star Trek:
Star Trek – Doomsday Machine (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lf7y1Bn4LKU&feature=youtu.be&t=1m40s) / Gamilas Dimensional Submarine (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IuqfTes7oe0)
With the sequel, things get kicked up a notch with more mature orchestral writting, even more Trek moments and full rerecordings of Miyagawa’s most famous cues (http://picosong.com/wkyyQ/), including one of the most effective and memorable villain themes ever written, the Comet Empire/Gatlantis Theme. 40 years later, its effect is still shivering to hear in 2017/18:

And sure enough, moments straight out of Star Trek appear again. The show itself is shamelessly anachronistic as all hell too and 2202 as well as 2199 are a giant homage to everything SciFi, from literature to TV Show, from Asimov to Stark Trek: TOS to Battlestar Galactica. The movie gets even more obvious with its references. I really adore the whole Yamato Project, flaws aside. It’s also criminally overlooked (light spoilers ahead).

Speaking of delicious SciFi and Space Battles, 2202 has its big SciFi event next month:

When all soundtracks are released (I guess by the end of the year) this will be one hell of a throwback. 60s/70s Hollywood TV scoring in 2017/18?! Where on earth can you hear that anymore?!
Enjoy… and prosper
