FVCG-1209: Sekaiju no MeiQ⁴ *denshou no kyojin* Super Arrange Version

[Teioh]

The only place I found this listed as "Original Sound Track Super Arrange Version" is Getchu. I think this is going to be just "Super Arrange Version" as soon as more info (such as a picture) appears.

[Zanasea]

5pb. lists it as "Super Arrange Version" only: http://5pb.jp/records/release/detail...code=FVCG-1209

[KAI]

Kamikura all alone? that's interesting.

[Don]

There are more people involved, I believe, based on this message to me. Of course, it could have just been that I sent the message before it started showing up on official label pages, etc. and it was still secret.

Hi Don san!
Konbanwa!
genki desu yo-!!
Don san ha Ogenki desuka?

It is early to acquire information.
Although an arranger is still secret, please wait for it to pleasure!

[Don]

Talk about an unexpected lineup! (I kind of expected Jindo due to Kamikura's Falcom connections)

[dissident93]

Noriyuki Kamikura and Masashi Hamauzu? awesome

[jdkluv]

What an amazing lineup. Nice to see Koshiro back on good terms with Yonemitsu.

I didn't know they were on bad terms, but that's intriguing. Also, for this album, I'm not sure if Koshiro has any input or not. I'm sure that Kamikura did all the coordinating for arrangers, etc. In the arrange album by Basiscape, he's only listed as the original music composer with no other sort of director or advisory role.

Funnily enough, I think it was through SEMO I originally found out about their disagreements.

This album turned out to be a Falcom CD.

[Chris]

Yuzo Koshiro clarified his current thoughts on the Falcom situation here. He referenced problems in interviews published at a considerably earlier date.

Wow, I'd not read that before. Thank you Chris!

Very cool that he gave a special nod to the late Kentaro Haneda. I agree, Haneda's work on Symphony Ys and Symphony Sorcerian are very good.

I'm also glad that whatever frustrations he had about all the Falcom arrangements not being in his hands is an issue he's moved on from. That said, Falcom should totally contract him if/when they make "Ys 8"

[Don]

Based on this photo, c.l.o.u.d. seems to consist of Noriyuki Kamikura and Toshiharu Okajima.

Also, this may be their website. Not entirely sure. At work so can't really check at the moment:

[CHz]

Yup, that is correct.

Also that is their site, yeah. The only content there at the moment is that flier.

[Don]

Does the introduction section of the flyer say anything interesting?

[XISMZERO]

Some booklet scans would really help with the musician breakdown though judging by Kamikura's crew as of late, I'm almost certain his band is Daisuke Miyazaki (guitar), Naomu Soeda (soprano sax), Toshiharu Okajima (drums).

KPLECRAFT's Kuske likely performed the alto saxophone solo on his track.

I'll work on getting scans - holiday in the US this weekend so I'll be away, but I remember that for KPLECRAFT's track, he does indeed play sax. There is someone who plays drums on that track as well...from what I remember, but I can't remember if that is also Kuske or not.

In the mean time though, I'll add the performer information later tonight in the Notes section and the Artist Fields.

[XISMZERO]

There's no saxophone on track 9 "Labyrinth IV - Library of Puppets". This is a typo. Probably meant to credit guitar and/or keyboard to Kamikura or "c.l.o.u.d.".

[razakin]

Seems that the scans use bit different variation for kyoshin romanization for this, it's kyojin. So shouldn't it be the album title, or at least alternative title?

[CHz]

JP Wikipedia says the reading is kyojin too so "kyoshin" just seems like an error.

EDIT: I see "kyoshin" is printed on the OST but yeah the correct reading is apparently kyojin, the narrator said kyojin in a promotional video too.

[dancey]

Synced track title changes with OST 4 changes (https://vgmdb.net/album/33201)
