VN Music and Remixes

Didn’t see a topic on “english bishoujo” music or about remixes…

So, here’s an excuse to reminisce about old games, or check out new ones; beginning with their music.
Discuss anything related, or share favorite tracks.

Brave Soul remixes :
VERTE AILE, T02: Brave Soul “Fly for the dream” (loud)

  • Track 01 A CD remix of the opening… I’m tempted to try replacing it with the original video, or apply the … lyrics ontop of it xD

Brave Soul OST - Dungeons (Mixed version) - Track 11 (quiet)

  • Track 11 Shameless plug, I posted this one for a request. It’s not really a remix, more of a mod.

Acid Vision - Brave Soul Tune 1 (Goblin Mix) (loud)

  • Track 07 A “goblin” remix! I like this one.

I think Tenshi no Tamago has a really good soundtrack, although it doesn’t have many tunes.

Mahoutsukai no Yoru also seems to have a good soundtrack, but having not played it I won’t comment because a soundtrack is only as good as it is used.

#4

Saya no Uta and Sekien no Inganock had some of the ones I found most memorable. I remember Gin’iro having a very fitting track also, but it’s been a while.
As for vocal pieces, MLA’s Asu e no Houkou beats everything. Other pieces I liked are Chaos;Head’s Find the Blue, and many Da Capo songs.

#5

Mmmm, those are solid titles. Not sure where to start!

YU-NO - Track 21 <3

  • Love this peaceful track. (original song)

YU-NO OST - ?? (Temple) [DnB Remix]

  • YU-NO REMIX!

YU-NO OST - Imperial Capital(??) [DnB Remix]

  • Not too bad…
#6

Was forgetting Kusarihime! So, well, Kusarihime. It has very memorable tracks (I especially like ???)

#7

The only one that really sticks out for me is Nocturnal Illusion / Mugen no Yasoyoku. Can’t believe no one mentioned it yet.

#8

Vocalist:

Hitomi Harada (Sounds great live and a strong voice)
Monet (A lot of relaxing stuff)
Rita (Her stuff has incredible variety)
yozuca*
hana
Miyuki Hashimoto
Aki Misato

Other mentions:

Yuria
Ceui
Haruna Ikeda

Did I miss anyone?

#9

I like Duca quite a bit.

I also like KOTOKO but not so much for her eroge songs (except for Boundary Line)

#10

Any recommended Duca songs?

#11

Yumemishi OP (especially this)
Garden OP
Purely OP
Natsu no Ame OP

#12

Oh, nice stuff. I like the OP for Garden the most.

Another great singer is the gal who does most of the Nitro+ stuff.

#13

So I’ve asked a few people on IRC and it seems like no one else likes Hitomi Harada. :frowning:

I think she has a pretty nice vocal range,imho

#14

I don’t dislike her as much as a lot of people seem to, but I can’t call myself a fan; I prefer the instrumental version of every themesong she does (except Feel Coming Spring) =P

#15

Why is that? Btw, EGS has her listed on the new Minori game.

#16

The higher notes in her vocal range grate on me and I find them somewhat unpleasant. The lower stuff is nice and I wish she stuck to it more.

#17

That’s actually the opposite of me. I totally dig the stronger voice.

Edit: Looks like ??? doesn’t have an animated OP. It’s still quite pretty though.

#18

Yeah. minori animated OPs are an extravagance and while they’re struggling financially you can expect them to cut back. Natsuzora no Perseus is a potboiler as minori basically admitted, so this makes sense.

#19

The saddest thing is the way they marketed the game. Poor Minori.

A lot of people are complaining about the chest sizes but they look normal to me(by eroge standards). The chest sizes certainly can’t be compared to the new WAB game~

Edit: EGS comments(lol google translate) suggest that the game is 8-13 hours long. I guess that’s also to be expected.
It also looks like there’s some digital ero manga included with the LE.
