Princess Mononoke – Joe Hisaishi (Deluxe Edition) (1997) [FLAC]

Hi fellow soundtrack lovers, today I present you my "deluxe" edition of Princess Mononoke soundtrack by Joe Hisaishi which features :
– Improved sound quality (manually removed a HUGE amount of clipped audio from the official release)
– Complete soundtrack with the Image Album and the Symphonic Suite included

Because the official album release was already almost complete, I tried to include nearly everything about the music of Princess Mononoke : including both of the ending songs (Japanese and USA) and the bootleg track of unreleased music (which contains SFX).

Feel free to give me feedbacks ! 🙂

P.S : I did not know if I should post this thread in "Film, Television and Classical Music" or in "Anime Music"… according to me it fits more in the first one sub-forum…

P.S (2) : I have looked everywhere to find a better version of the bootleg track "San Trapped by the Tatari-Gami". Usually, I don’t like to include bad quality tracks with SFX in my edits, but this music was important to me and I could’t find a better source. Feel free to tell me if you got a better one. :p

They’re actually different arrangements & orchestrations like re-recordings :

– The Image Album was the first to be released (a year before the movie release in Japan).
– The Symphonic Suite is a special arrangement for concerts and live performances,
following the tradition of Joe Hisaishi to release both the soundtrack album and a symphonic arrangement for the same music (like "Castle in the Sky", etc).
– The Soundtrack is just the original motion picture sountrack composed for the movie.

Here is the link to the Wikipedia article (in French) which explain all of this : https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Princesse_Mononok�_(bande_originale)

Hope it helps answering to your question. 🙂
