5.0 out of 5 stars Mostly classical mixed in with trademark Kanno sound, July 22, 2006

This review is from: Ashurajo No Hitomi OST (Audio CD)

As a fan of her music (especially the Cowboy Bebop, Wolf's Rain, Ghost in the Shell SAC, and 23 No Ji Ongaku music) I really enjoy just about everything she does. If I were to compare this Ashurajo No Hitomi CD to any of her previous work I would say that it is like a more classical yet dark spinoff of the Wolf's Rain material. I have not seen Ashurajo No Hitomi but the music is excellent. Kanno spices her music with some latin, jazz, lotsa classical, and many others for this CD. For the most part it is very solemn and a tad experimental but very good.

5.0 out of 5 stars Dark, exotic and beautiful, September 18, 2010

This is a great CD for Yoko fans. It is quite different than her anime soundtracks in that it sounds like a movie soundtrack. For example, it leans towards instrumental rather than vocal and many songs are definitely meant to be background. That said, it is extremely high quality (as fans would expect). Overall, the CD is epic and darkly beautiful, with a strong taste of exotic.
