EBCD-0017: SENKO no RONDE DESIRES ROULETTE SOUNDTRACK x NOVEL

[Vert1]

What the...!? This looks like it will be very limited.

[jdkluv]

Isn't it "Ronde", with a 'e'?

[Vert1]

yea..? The title is spelt the same as all the other entries of the series.

Where can I pre-order this?

[Don]

As far as I know, most Enterbrain releases don't usually populate to other ordering sites, like CDJapan or Amazon Japan. CDJapan offers a special order service, but it can be a bit pricey.

I added Akari Kaida as a performer, based on the Ebten page.

作曲：渡部恭久　ボーカル：海田明里

[Vert1]

Ugh. This needs to hurry up and get to my doorstep.

[Vert1]

Wow. Any explanation on why this was delayed so much?

[Vert1]

Got it today. Looks really nice -- I don't want to unseal it. CD case is videogame case big.



edit: I opened it. The booklet contains several pages on Watanabe talking about "how to make Senko No Ronde sounds". I wish I could read Japanese. Hopefully someone can translate the interview scans (pgs. 24-41) for us...

[Vert1]

Got done listening to all of it. If you like the Senko series music you must own this.

I started off listening to it for a night drive up to track 6 or 7. 'ユーフォリア' (Track 4) is extremely good and should be played loud. I recommend switching over to headphones though when it goes to track 10 as it's got that intelligent pattering of notes that twirl around from ear to ear.

[Vert1]

Not sure if on 'Phantom Candle (From Raven Candle)' at 4:18 the "blip" sound is an error or intentional.

[Vert1]

I uploaded all the interview material. Please somebody translate.

On a quick glance, p24/25 is a design doc by Grev's producer (Maruyama) with the general ideas for the album (~'like DUO's console story mode but if that was a TV anime this is more like a movie', 'main themes are "casino" and "ViVi"', etc)
Then a description with the book chapters and their main scenes ('this character fights in the casino', 'reminiscence'...) plus the locales' mood, expected song list, and so on.

26-31: online chat about between Yack and the producer about said doc ('you could do it like this and that track from DUO').

Then a general talk by the novelist, producer and Yack where they talk about the novel and characters, its creation, and the series music.


It's not much but you get the idea.
