A few months ago we spoke with Norihko Hibino specifically about GEM Impact’s work on the Blassreiter, and again just last week he mentioned it as being one of the team’s milestone projects. Well, The soundtrack has just been released by Lantis in Japan, and having listened to the whole thing through, I completely understand why Hibino feels that it’s such a big deal for the team.
Of course there’s the hybrid orchestral/electronic sound that the team is known for, but also featured are piano ballads, live jazz performances, and stirring orchestral pieces. Spread across two discs, there’s about two hours of music from GEM Impact alongside the vocal themes that the team had no part in.
Find out why this release is so important to the GEM Impact team after the jump. (more…)
