Okay, I added a bunch of information for the soundtrack:
* Tracklist with times. * Some album notes (you got the album for preordering at lots of sites. It's still a Steam key so it didn't matter where you got it from.) * All liner notes (these are available as text in a PDF file.) * Cover art (the cover art on the MP3s is really crappy, but they included mid and high resolution images in the folder.) * Price (the game's $14.99. So the price is $14.99.) * Alternate album title (that's the name in the ID3 tags.) Um. That's it. I wish I could play the game, but it's x64 only and nobody warned me about that. Bleh. |

Oh, since I realized we have the original composer for Strider in the database, I went ahead and added him as a featured composer since some of the songs use arranged portions of the original game's music (most notably the first track.) And since Mollo's primarily a music arranger, I put him there as well.
I'm not sure if this uses any music from Strider 2 since I don't own that game. |

Gotta ask (even though I plan to get this later - I use Win7 64 bit XD), are there some Russian sounding vocals in any of the tracks? Because it mentions translations by Victor Chaga. If that's the case you can put Chaga in the lyricist field too (we also use it for translators).

Someone's already uploaded the whole thing to Youtube if you want to check it out. Also! I had no idea that this was also released on CD in Japan! Hopefully we'll get one released in America eventually. |

Thanks man, I've listened to it on YT and added Chaga.
Seems like a very nice OST. Last edited by Efendija; Feb 20, 2014 at 09:36 AM. |

Yep this soundtrack is on the 3rd CD of Sound Chronicle set included with Limited Edition of the game in Japan. Available through e-Capcom.
The whole deal is reminiscent of Bionic Commando Rearmed CD - developed by non-JP studio, scored by non-JP composer, with CD coming out only in JP. http://www.capcom.co.jp/strider/product.html http://www.e-capcom.com/strider/ http://vgmdb.net/album/42807 Vocals in 2nd track "Kazakh City" are hard to make out, as a native Russian speaker I can't tell you if they are in Russian or not, the way the choir sings them could be in any other language. |

Yeah, it's impossible to be sure, this being Mollo, choir could be US singers. However I decided to add Chaga anyway because both him and Mollo were regular arrangers for some of John Powell's soundtracks and Chaga besides the expected arranger role also has Russian translation credits (or could be just transliteration) for one such (animation) album that I know of (Happy Feet Two).
So I think the non-Russian choir tries to sing in Russian even for just a single track. Last edited by Efendija; Feb 20, 2014 at 12:00 PM. |

I thought I might as well check the game files for the credits in case it's all plaintext, but everything's compressed in a format I don't recognize so nope. :P
Once I build my new computer - and if someone doesn't beat me to the punch - I'll go through the credits and add any missing information. |

Foxhack, as for the credits they can be viewed from the menu without beating the game, so I looked at them and no new information there, the only music related stuff is - Music by Mollo. Screen: Spoiler:

Well, I was able to pick up a line from Grandmaster Meio track. I'm pretty sure it reads "O, Velikiy Meio" (means "Oh, Meio the Great" in English) then a tiny bit that is gibberish and I'm not sure about the next line but it sounds not too far away from "Vsemoguschiy Meio" (Meio the All powerful/Almighty) and the rest is gibberish again. The accent is horrendous, lol.
Anyway I asked the composer if he can point me to the actual lyrics for Kazakh Theme or its english version (before the translation) at least. Not keeping my expectations high for an answer but who knows, right? Last edited by VegaMan; Mar 3, 2014 at 04:22 PM. |
