SVWC-7380~1: PERSONA3 Original Soundtrack

[CHz]

The booklet doesn't seem to credit the vocalists, so I don't know who did Jika Net Tanaka. It's male, could be Lotus Juice too.

Also, the entry previously credited Yosuke Uda with guitar on track 1.27, but that's not in the scans either. There also isn't actually any guitar in that track.

This Soundtrack FAQ lists two additional tracks on disc 2:
"Burn My Dread -Long Version-" and "P3_heaven's Remix"

Anyone know what this is all about?

[Dag]

The game had a preorder bonus CD. It included a bunch of wallpapers and these two tracks as mp3. Somebody released the ost and added the two tracks, and I guess some people didn't realize these weren't part of the ost.

[Phonograph]

I don't remember if I've ever said somewhere liner notes were saying it was "tamashii no uta" and not "... no shi"

edit: ah yeah, for p3p voice mix, apparently I spoke in the wind (I'm used to)

[Vert1]

'Memories of the City' is such a sad track. I need to get this ost.

[Vert1]

How many tracks from the game did not make it to the ost? I am disappointed one particular beach tune is no present.

Haven't really played through the game all that much, but could the beach tune you speak of be on this album?

(Not sure if the beach is only in the portable version or not...)


EDIT: A quick search on Youtube showing a beach scene seems to suggest the music is "Deep Breath Deep Breath." Is there another tune that plays there as well?

[dissident93]

The tune that plays on the beach is indeed "Deep Breath Deep Breath".

It's first played on the first shadow boss fight, during the train segment, btw.

[Dag]

IIRC there is missing beat variation of "Memories of the School" but it wasn't super exciting or anything. Nothing else should be missing.

(now, this is missing the main battle theme and other stuff from here, what the hell Atlus)

[Vert1]

I'm remembering an upbeat happier track (an instrumental) I left on loop playing on the PS2 game. I guess I'm misrecalling things -- Could there really have been a time where I was keen on looping 'Deep Breath Deep Breath'? ugh

What is your source for the reading of 高屋雅英 as Takaya Masahide? Thanks

[IJustDontKnowAnymore]

I'm having difficulty find a source for that as well, but it looks like some people from 2ch in 2006 were talking about him as the vocalist, he's also part of Atlus' debug crew, so I don't think it's a stretch to credit him. Especially because Hashino did the lyrics, whom usually isn't a part of the sound team.

Apologies for the late reply. I actually got it from the Megaten wiki. When I saw the entry for the Persona 3 OST, I thought that someone had forgotten to translate some text, that's why I added him on the notes. If the source is not reliable enough, my apologies.

I also remember reading he was a programmer on SMT Nocturne or something.

For some reason my pressing has differently colored discs and I wonder why.

More info here.

[IJustDontKnowAnymore]

Pretty sure the first press of the OST has full colour on the disc art, whereas all subsequent prints just have monochrome art.

That'd explain it. Is it relevant to add scans for these discs here?

I think it would be good to have them scanned. I'm not sure how VGMDB handles labeling the images, but maybe just use something like "Disc 1 (First-Press Label)"? A moderator will edit it later if necessary.

[IJustDontKnowAnymore]

I guess it would be worthwhile to add them, just be sure to edit the first press release as such in the name as opposed to just "disc 1".

[Robin]

Alright, renamed "Case Interior" as "Discs (First print)" and added the monochrome discs as "Disc 1" and "Disc 2". Tell me if anything's wrong
