New Ace Attorney soundtrack: Gyakuten Saiban Tokubetsu Hōtei 2008 #1


While this most likely does not deserve its own topic, I am making one any way. About 2 weeks ago, the new album for the Ace Attorney series came out, which is a recording of the performance done at the live concert back in April. Its really fantastic stuff, and I think a good number of you should give it a listen, so I tracked down all the songs on youtube and put it in a play list (Though the youtube videos do lose some of the sound quality)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4e26y...x=0&playnext=1

Also, while its not much more, Wikipedia has some info on it too if you want to give it a read:

As you could guess, this one is going to cost a good amount. Cost $48 on amazon. Or if you can get it at market price some how, 3570 yen, its still the most expensive AA album yet (I think)

Nope, but most of them are around the same price anyway.

This is the best Gyakuten Saiban album to date.

God, I wish more people would get into this amazing series. Where is the news on GS5??

Sorry. If it makes you feel better, there is going to be an anoucement for some new GS stuff at the next concert, which is on September 23.

Hope the next concert music is good too, but I think its just going to be Gyakuten Saiban meets Orchestra, only live.

The last album was quasi-orchestral: some orchestral parts were recorded, but some were synthesized. The arrangements in this album are generally extended, fully orchestral, and--most impressively--live. :D

YES. That was my only complaint, honestly--that, and Gant's Theme should have been a little more intense, or perhaps a tad more bombastic. I also would have preferred Atmey's Theme in place of Mask DeMasque.

Dahlia may be a B-word, but her music is absolutely wonderful.

And I love how Ron DeLite's theme got redone too. I do find it odd that they put it Villain Suit though, seeing as Ron DeLite is the opposite of a villain.

The Kurain track would have fit perfectly with the overall arrangement as well, considering how many tracks are already spanning multiple games. I know the Sisters theme is a major one, but they could've always just extended that section of the Kurain track if they wanted to emphasize it.

I think the idea behind it was Mask DeMasque's theme would be included as an homage to Luke Atmey moonlighting as Mask DeMasque as a cover-up for the murder.

Precisely! I love the Turnabout Sisters Theme, but we don't need an entire arrangement for it. Hopefully we'll get some new arrangements in September!

While it would of, I think they did a fine job with song selection. They only had so long to play. The only thing I don't like is how for like the first 2 minutes of the courtroom suite they play the Frankenstein like theme. (The guy on youtube split song 2 into 2 parts though)

I mean they couldn't play both >_>

Also, I wonder if they will ever do a Rock N' Roll score. I would love to hear guilty love preformed live in a rock setting, but I don't know how the other songs would sound.

I thought it was a cute homage to the opening of JFA. :D

(And, for reference, it's actually Bach's Toccata and Fugue in D minor from the Well-Tempered Klavier.)

You do know that Dracula actually stole the theme from an earlier piece by Bach. But I don't get why they played that instead of some other Phoenix Wright music.

The GBA games weren't super huge but there were big enough for some sequels. The series gained even more popularity with the Ds remakes. I'm sure being able to completely reuse assets makes it an even bigger success in Capcom's eyes. There is an old thread here that tracks the sales, breaking down rereleases and such.

My only complaint of this is that they're doing the same songs over and over again. I don't really care for Steel Samurai and the 1-3 court suites yet again. This Dark Fragrance version is so sex though.

I would kill for a beefed up version of Prosecutors Path (JFA end music).

Its a good series, I think the series has sold 2 Million games in Japan, so its has a good following. I know Apollo Justice Sold 500K in Japan alone.
