HoudiniJr100 Posted November 15, 2013 Posted November 15, 2013 Seeing as they've made a different Sol vs. Ky theme for just about every game, I wouldn't be surprised is Xrd had a new one. loketests had the recoming as placeholder funny thing. :P
BladeOfJustice7 Posted November 15, 2013 Posted November 15, 2013 Noontide has a nice build up to it from 0:00 to 0:12 it sounds good, then it goes to meh-mode, then it gets hype again at 2:05-2:15. The ends in meh, that guitar build up for those specific points are hype as fuck but there's nothing else going for the song outside of that. The rest of the song sounds unmemorable. No Mercy has a hype guitar and drumming part from 0:00-0:18, 0:19-0:42 is just straight aggressive hard rock. I always found this song captured the furiosity of their rivalry. Just watch their AC fight intro with No Mercy playing in the back ground and you'll see what I mean. There's nothing eloquent about this song just straight hard rock music from the get go until the end. Hence the name, it's merciless, No Mercy. Keep the Flag Flying 0:00-0:30 has a nice unique build up to the guitar. I don't know what instrument is used at the beginning of the song but it matches perfectly Order Sol vs Ky rivalry as at this point they are both Holy order members, and this song feels like an epic fight between top ranked Holy Order members. So I loved this track the moment I heard it. The rest of the song is amazing especially when the instrument comes back at 1:42-2:00. The Re-Coming I've always enjoyed the song but never absolutely loved it, maybe it's because I never played Overture seriously. But DAT guitar opening from 0:00-0:16 is amazing, it has a strong nostalgia feel to it that matches the name, since it's a rivalry that hasn't been sparked in years and it's as if it's resurfacing for the first time in a long time. After that it immediately kicks up into hype until the opening guitar riff comes back in 2:40-3:00, which brings back the nostalgia effect of the song after some time since the opening. And finally a terrific ending to the song. Conclusion (I'll be referring to the GG SoundBox Remix for this one). 0:10-0:28 has an awesome guitar build up making you feel the grand epic feel of a fight between two rivals after not facing each other for far too long. 1:09-1:30 is probably one of my favourite parts of the song followed by 1:30-1:40, which brings back the awesome build up at the beginning of the song, that displays through auditory a rivalry reignited. Everyone talks about how amazing these songs are, but no one ever really mentions which parts make the songs so amazing or so unmemorable. Hopefully what I wrote wasn't stupid to everyone else, but I'd like to hear which parts of these songs people like specifically. I just love the aggressive hard Rock feel of No Mercy compared to the rest, But doesn't not mean I don't appreciate the eloquence of Keep the Flag Flying, nor the nostalgia of The Re-Coming, or the display of a reignited rivalry after so many years between two former military partners. Noontide just doesn't seem to have anything specific to it, other then the definition of the word, which means a culminating climax. It culminates alright, and after that it just falls apart into aridity. I hope they have a new Xrd theme that can match the nostalgia of Re-Coming, the reignition of a rivalry like Conclusion, and the downright aggression of No Mercy. Since their Rivalry has evolved over the series, and each song matched that rivalry one way or another.
Manta Posted November 15, 2013 Posted November 15, 2013 Everyone talks about how amazing these songs are, but no one ever really mentions which parts make the songs so amazing or so unmemorable. It's the funny thing about fighting game music, you're going to hear the intro and first few verses a lot, and for all but the first few bars you're too busy fighting to notice the music. Therefore songs that have awesome and unique intros but meh cores are still memorable, like Still in the Dark for example. Compare this to the generic pop music you find on the radio, where the emphasis is on repeating a catchy chorus because a song needs to be memorable to a person flicking between radio stations, these songs have barely any intro at all. The other odd thing is that the awesome guitar solos rarely get heard in game because the battle is frequently over by then. This has the odd effect of emphasising the more long and epic battles as you get treated to sections of the music you don't normally hear.
kosmos badgirl Posted November 18, 2013 Posted November 18, 2013 Cover and tracklist for reincarnation blue and CP soundtrack. http://blazblue-am.jp/goods/cd.html I hope that cover for CP is a placeholder.
GVGguy Posted November 19, 2013 Posted November 19, 2013 I hope that cover for CP is a placeholder. It looks more like it could be a character song single with vocals done by Rachel's VA or something along those lines. Not exactly what I'd call the best idea for a game's soundtrack. Unless Arc has decided that Rachel's Blazblue new face, with CPs story ending like it did...
Manta Posted November 19, 2013 Posted November 19, 2013 Has anyone mentioned or talking about in JUSTICE yet? Because I seriously want to have sex with that track.
Volt Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 Has anyone mentioned or talking about in JUSTICE yet? Because I seriously want to have sex with that track. One of the best tracks in the game. So good that I can't even describe it.
BlackYakuzu94 Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 One of the best tracks in the game. So good that I can't even describe it. You could say your avatar is a great Injustice, wouldn't you say.
Master Of Chaos Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 The. Greatest. Shit. I say In JUSTICE is the second best VS theme next to SIX-HEROES
Dawn of Musou Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 in JUSTICE is definitely amazing. Still though I can't help but feel that the song is missing something after the first chorus + violin part. Maybe more violin or something. Then again CP's OST is full of violin everywhere lol.
Agni Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 Cover and tracklist for reincarnation blue and CP soundtrack. http://blazblue-am.jp/goods/cd.html I hope that cover for CP is a placeholder. I remember that Sword Art Online's OP disc just had a photo of the singer for the Cover...though it had a slip case with artwork from the show. Maybe this will be similar. Or it could just be a placeholder *shrugs* EDIT: Actually, if that's the cover for the whole damn OST...that has to be a placeholder. It just makes no sense.

But it's where you've got that amazing riff and combined with the fact that you know that this track was created for one of the most tragic battles that even happens in BB. It's that combination that makes it so good.
GVGguy Posted November 26, 2013 Posted November 26, 2013 Sheesh, it's been a long wait, but it looks like I'll finally get BBCP's soundtrack in the mail this weekend. I'm STOKED!!! I might even review the whole thing when I get the time...
beanwich Posted November 26, 2013 Posted November 26, 2013 I must say, I find every single song in BBCP's soundtrack to be exceedingly godlike. The songs are amazing. Also, does anyone here know who's VS. theme "Black and White" is? I can't seem to figure it out.

Shinhwa Posted November 26, 2013 Posted November 26, 2013 Can't wait for BBCP OST. I have been listening to the pseudo recorded ones that were posted on youtube, so quality wasn't that great.
Volt Posted November 26, 2013 Posted November 26, 2013 Does someone know if Heavy Day was released somewhere?
beanwich Posted November 26, 2013 Posted November 26, 2013 Is there any place to buy the full BBCP soundtrack without having to buy a special edition item or living in Japan? I would love to be able to listen to it any time.
Volt Posted November 26, 2013 Posted November 26, 2013 Is there any place to buy the full BBCP soundtrack without having to buy a special edition item or living in Japan? I would love to be able to listen to it any time. Internet. Try the stores that sell CP. Otherwise, it's going to be hard.
beanwich Posted November 27, 2013 Posted November 27, 2013 Well, of course I meant the internet! I got BBCP from playasia.com, maybe they'll have it, if not, maybe another site.
GVGguy Posted November 27, 2013 Posted November 27, 2013 They have it on PlayAsia, that's where I bought it.
Calamitus Posted November 28, 2013 Posted November 28, 2013 (edited) Anyone knows why they did not included Black Onslaught II into Phase III soundtrack? Edited November 28, 2013 by Chaoschao222 movie magic
Kyosuke Kagami Posted November 28, 2013 Posted November 28, 2013 Because it's a remix. Phase III only has the "new" songs.
