LINER NOTES


"There is no doubt in my mind that if there is anyone to thank for this, it is not only the
people who have been rooting for us since Gestalt/Replicant, but those who developed an
interest in NieR through Automata as well. Thank you so, so much.

Looking back at the recording now makes me realize just how grand in scale this concert
was. The atmosphere of a live performance can only be experienced in the moment, but
the recording that came from it-with multiple camera angles and detailed shots of
performers that would have been difficult to make out when gazing upon a full orchestra
in a large concert hall --- has an appeal all its own. I wish for nothing more than for every-
one to enjoy it for themselves.

The first time we presented a live performance of NieR music was at the release party
for Gestalt/Replicant. It was a bit of a mini-concert- just a few tracks with Emi Evans
singing and Keigo Hoashi on the piano, and I was sure there would never again come a
day where we perform NieR songs in front of an audience. I never would have guessed
that just a few short years later, we would be performing an orchestral concert in the
great hall at the Pacifico Yokohama! It's amazing to think that such amazing things could
come to pass assuming you live long enough to see them."

- Keiichi Okabe, Sound Director/Composer


"Hello everyone, YOKO TARO here.

I provide game direction for the NieR series. I was also in charge of overseeing the
footage for this orchestral concert and my grand vision this time around was "make
everything exactly how Okabe-san wants it." As such, I had no choice but to ask the staff
to deliver on the challenging task of painstakingly playing the game such that the footage
matches up perfectly with the music. On the day of the concert, just as I was observing
the sleep-deprived staff going about their work and feeling terribly sorry for them, the
mighty lord Okabe-san leisurely sauntered up partway through the rehearsal and went
about happily checking the costumes and such. As I watched him and thought about all
the video staff and performers, I was filled with a most tremendous sorrow ... and I knew
what had to be done.

The above is my statement regarding the time I blew up MONACA, Okabe-san's music
studio."

- YOKO TARO, Director


"Good day. I trust you're destroying everything for the sake of a single person, as always?
Yosuke Saito, producer of the NieR series here.

NieR Replicant was released on April 22nd, 2010. It has already been eight years and ten
months, though it feels like hardly any time has passed at all. It's also already been about
two years since NieR:Automata came out. ... Yeesh, I'm getting old.

Maybe it's my age, but I can't recall things as clearly as I used to. Thinking back on when
we were busting our butts to make NieR Replicant, I remember it was taking more time
than anticipated to get the game working on multiple platforms, and we were having a
tough time implementing everything from the Lost Shrine onward. I listened to Blu-Bird
for what must have been an eternity, and by the end of it I remember not even being
sure if NieR's soundtrack was any good or not.

I also have a recollection of when we got this sudden request from overseas to add the
Gestalt character design, and I went in to work to make my case that we had no choice
but to extend the development schedule. But the truth was we had been already been
running and I was just sneakily taking this request from overseas as an opportunity to
make the delay in development itself a more ambiguous matter.

And one memory I have quietly locked away is from the time I read the script for the
NieR drama CD "Replicant High School" and thought "nobody is going to listen to this
anyway, and the story is all over the place, but ... whatever, fine."

In holding this concert, all those memories were enveloped with spectacular orchestral
sounds, turning each one into a beautiful memory. Thank you, YOKO TARO. Thank you,
Okabe Keiichi. Thank you, Kanagawa Philharmonic Orchestra. Thank you, NieR fans.

I love you all. Here's to many more memories!"
