Now THIS is music., November 29, 2002
This review is from: Macross Plus: Original Soundtrack II (1994 Japanese Anime Mini-Series) (Audio CD)
Wow. This soundtrack is absolutely fantastic. I bought this CD about a year ago at the local Suncoast, and I was immediately hooked. I mean, I have several anime soundtracks, from Blue Seed to Ah! Megami-sama, and even Fushigi Yugi. But, I have to say, this is one of the few CDs that I can listen to all the way through, and still be satisfied. The songs are magnificent. From French to Japanese, and even English, the vocal songs are mellow and harmonic. They are quite beautiful. Even the songs without words, which I usually skip when it comes to anime soundtracks, are amazing. They combine music from practically every race and culture. African, American, Chinese, Japanese, it's all here! Even classical and modern are combined. So, basically, I would definately recommend this CD to anyone who does not want to just waste their money on a CD with one or two good songs. If I had to sum up this CD in one word, it would definately be "masterpiece". So buy this CD! ^-^

Wonderful CD! <3, January 31, 2003
This review is from: Macross Plus: Original Soundtrack II (1994 Japanese Anime Mini-Series) (Audio CD)
I'm a major fan of Yoko Kanno, and although this is one of her earlier works, Macross Plus OST 2 is one of her very best ever. For the complete Kanno newbie, there's the joy in discovering all the various styles of music on this CD, and let me say that there are as many styles as there are tracks. For more experienced Kanno fans, it's worth buying this to see some very early examples of themes and styles that she used later (for example, some of the songs wouldn't sound out of place in Cowboy Bebop). There are no tracks that aren't wonderful on this CD. If you want a CD unlike anything else on the market at a highly reasonable price, get Macross Plus OST 2. You don't even have to have seen Macross Plus to like this; I haven't seen it and this is still one of my favorite CDs ever.

This review is from: Macross Plus: Original Soundtrack II (1994 Japanese Anime Mini-Series) (Audio CD)
While the Macross Plus movies themselves are amazing, the soundtrack is what really got me hooked! I found myself singing the songs days after I had watched the movies. It's blend of seductive techno, ethnic chanting and all around beat amazed me from the beginning. This is definately one of the best Anime soundtracks out there!
