"GHOSTBUSTERS" Original Score [Japan Bonus Track] [Blu-spec CD2]Elmer BernsteinThe Ghostbusters score
This hi-fidelity Blu-spec CD2 contains the motion picture score for the original Ghostbusters movie by Elmer Bernstein. I've always liked this score, it sounds like an old fashioned scary movie from the 1950s with a small hint of comedy attached to it. It's a perfect fit for the movie. I also find this music is perfect to play during Halloween season and in Fall in general, it really sets a nice vibe. Plus, this Japanese edition contains the end credits as a bonus track!

Confidenza [UHQCD]Original Soundtrack (Music by Thom Yorke)Everything Thom produces is gold
I like the cardboard packaging in general, but print quality could be better on this release. Regarding music - it is delicate and anxious and beautiful, more avant-garde comparing to Suspiria, with a significant jazz influence. Thom is very prolific right now and in a good shape.

Bob Marley: One Love - Original Soundtrack - [SHM-CD] [Deluxe Edition] [Cardboard Sleeve (mini LP)]Bob Marley & The WailersIt's not a standard mini lp
The edition presents itself, in terms of components, like a mini lp (obi, external cedllophane, etc.), but the size of this "mini lp" is that of a 45 rpm single. So, if you have a box with other standard Marley mini LPs (13 x 13 cm), this one won't fit.

"Godzilla Minus One (Godzilla-1.0)" (Movie) Original SoundtrackOriginal Soundtrack (Music by Naoki Sato)Magnificent
It is very rare that a soundtrack album can stand alone as it's very own masterpiece, "Godzilla Minus One" is just one of those rarities. A thumping score that can tell the story of "Godzilla" without the need for visuals, a sonic treat writ large by the very talented Naoki Sato. Magnificent.

The ThingOriginal Soundtrack (Music by Ennio Morricone)Okay
Classical soundtrack from epic thriller! Worth buying. I understood that this is an imported disk, but wrapped with Japanese OBI. Still okay.

Plane Original SoundtrackOriginal Soundtrack (Music by Marco Beltrami, Marcus Trumpp)Very thrilling and melodic
The movie is not that good as the soundtrack to it. The score is very thrilling and melodic. If you like Marco Beltrami’s works, this is definitely for you. Btw: he took some pieces from Steve Jablonsky’s Skyscraper and Zimmer’s Inception.

Bob Marley: One Love - Original Soundtrack - [SHM-CD] [Regular Edition]Bob Marley & The WailersGood Sound Quality
All tracks sound like they have updated remastering and are full and clear. 'No Woman No Cry' is a live 1977 version.

"Segodon (TV Drama)" Original Soundtrack II (Music by Harumi Fuuki)Tatsuya Shimono (con), NHK Symphony Orchestra, Anna Sato, Sarah Alainn, Dai Hirai, Minami Kizuki,Yosuke Yamashita, et al.Magpie music (mix of styles)
Excellent TV drama soundtrack series from Harumi Fuuki continues. Vol 2 is even better, with a stronger mix of styles. More compositions inspired by traditional Japanese music too, which to my ignorant ears sounds fresh and exciting. With albums like this, where I haven't seen the show the music was written for, the score is left to conjure images and ideas on its own. I have no idea what Segodon is about, but I like to imagine it's a Butterfly Effect-type story about a foolish time traveler who finds himself back in various eras of Japan's history, meeting historical figures and mucking up the timeline, then coming back to present day Japan to see how history has been altered.

"Godzilla Minus One (Godzilla-1.0)" (Movie) Original SoundtrackOriginal Soundtrack (Music by Naoki Sato)Godzilla Minus One CD Soundtrack!
Absolutely great film! It deserves an "Academy Award" (or equivalent) for Best Picture of the Year! My purchase of this CD soundtrack to this stunning film, re-making of Godzilla's origin after 70 Years of film history, is fantastic. "Godzilla-1.0" is an exceptionally filmed and complete story. Beautiful cinematography, an inspiring story of people, and wonderful music and SFX. I've loved Godzilla since I first saw the 1954 film when I was four year old, almost 59 years ago! I am in awe... I feel priveledged to still be around to enjoy this emotional and creative story, in such a thrilling artistic rendition! Domo Arigatogozaimasu CDJapan!

"Godzilla Minus One (Godzilla-1.0)" (Movie) Original SoundtrackOriginal Soundtrack (Music by Naoki Sato)Beautiful, Surreal and Reflective
Naoki Sato does a powerful and moving take on the King of the Monsters. Including a few traditional themes from Godzilla movie's past, Sato offers mostly surreal, atmospheric pieces that cause you to reflect on the horror or emotion taking place. - and this is reflected even in the track names. The Godzilla suites are excellent and pieces such as Hope, Last and Pray will have you thinking about the situations long after seeing this movie. In some ways, it is not easiest Godzilla soundtrack to listen to, but you will be emotionally moved. Recommended for the Godzilla fan or those who reflective or horrific, fantastical ambience.

"Godzilla Minus One (Godzilla-1.0)" (Movie) Original SoundtrackOriginal Soundtrack (Music by Naoki Sato)Sato does it again
Naoki Sato's score for Godzilla Minus One starkly shows the different approaches between Japan and Hollywood when it comes to film scoring. Compare this boldly minimalist, richly-textured, quietly brooding, drone-infused score with the hyper bombast of Tom Holkenborg's Godzilla Vs Kong. It's night and day. While I like some of Holkenborg's score, in a battle of Sato vs Holkenborg, Sato easily wins. Stomps on him, in fact. I say that because Holkenborg said in an interview that he thought Akira Ifukube's original Godzilla theme was laughable, and was surprised it was so highly regarded. Blasphemy! Tom, the original Godzilla theme, lovingly included here in a respectful homage, is iconic, memorable and enduring, which are three words no one will ever use to describe your very boring score for Godzilla Vs Kong. Show some respect for the giant whose shoulders you're standing on. Sato demonstrates that respect in his fascinating, multi-layered score for Godzilla Minus One.

"Mary and the Witch's Flower (Animated Feature)" Original SoundtrackOriginal Soundtrack (Music by Takatsugu Muramatsu)Total delight from start to finish
A superb soundtrack composed by Takatsugu Muramatsu (When Marnie Was There). Highly recommended if you like Joe Hisaishi's wonderful scores for Hayao Miyazaki's films, as this is very much in that tradition. Lovely melodies to transport you to another world.
