EEEEE! I got my Xeno 3 "Sound Best Tracks" today! Luff!
Will go track by track later. (Because I have nothing to do tomorrow and I know I'll be antsy b/c of Avatar.) But! Random squee-age:
I could not be more enchanted with the composition of "the Miltia incidents" if I wanted to; the bits of the Song of Nephilim spread throughout are genius.
The castonet-type sound part of T-elos = <3
As testement (heh) to my growing sappiness, I actually teared up during "Febronia#2" (Is it possible for she and Virgil to have a happy ending? Is it too much to hope for?), "hepatic#3~I believe in you" (I keep picturing chaos/KOS-MOS stuff.) and the ending medley (OMG, it's the end! There won't be any more! Tear! Weep! Mourn! The saga is a tragedy unto itself!)
"I love you, sincerly" makes me feel a little warm and squishy. I'll admit it. I'm routing for Allen. I hope for good things. Go get her, boy. Go take away her tears. (Hey, Space Jesus doesn't lie!)
However, I do have a complaint. I knew that "Sound Best Tracks" titled was ominous and, indeed, not all the music is included. I was really looking forward to getting a nice long version of that Abel's Ark piece that was posted on GameFAQs. It really was reminiscent of "One Who Bears Fangs at God" and Mitsuda greatness... And I think I've heard mention of the first game disk having something like 120 tracks. (Exaggeration?) Still that's a lot of music. I guess, if it's mostly dungeon music (and maybe even text-box scene music), all there is to do is wait for someone to upload a rip.
However, that does me no good where trailer music is concerned. That was one thing I really appreciated about Episode II's soundtrack--that it included all of the unused music as well. Some of my favorite tracks come from there. And, I really wanted a copy of that song with the dark chanting in the most recent trailer sans the game voices. **pouts** Here's hoping, they release an additional soundtrack. **isn't holding her breath**
I am also disconcerted by the lack of an awesome "final boss theme." Ah, well. Poor Xeno.
And, I really wish there was a chaos and/or Wilhelm theme. If I was a video game composer, every character would have a theme song with a subtitle. A cool subtitle.
