The Shining of Music!

Reviewed in the United States on September 17, 2016

The sheer layers of tones and sounds in each of the 18 tracks in this album is awesome. “To Know, Water” is life-giving and life-changing! The vocal harmonies are out of this world…loved this :-).”Heaven Was Not Named” is eerily hypnotic, like the ocean currents. “And the Earth Did Not yet Bear a Name” has such a beautiful imagery to it, I just sat there spell-bound listening to this track of intense beauty :-). “ Delphinus Delphis” has a brilliant string section with a frolicking rhythm, the joyous feel of a vast open space was all around me! “Caranx Ignobilis” with its solitary flute opening is quite potent. I loved the fairy-tale quality to it :-). “ Balaenoptera Musculus” has a soaring quality, like the unfolding of a great drama in front of the eyes….this song took me over a wide range of soundscapes with its winding and flowing melody. Beautiful! “Chaos,The Mother” has the tones of post-apocalyptic scenario, the desolate landscape and the hush after a great storm. The lone female vocal is superbly woven into the track. “Then Were Created the Gods in the Midst of Heaven” is a shimmering track of vocal harmonies so beautifully produced, they become one with the inner soul of music. Austin Wintory is a master of all he surveys, his compositions have an exploratory quality to them that leads to rather adventurous and exotic lands unknown that at once captivate and intrigue. This is an album of exceptional production quality, something that has to listened to many times, to truly appreciate the glorious amalgam of sounds :-) :-) :-)

A Marvelous and Soothing Journey into the Watery Depths

Reviewed in the United States on April 18, 2017

Verified Purchase

From Austin Wintory, who gave us the enchanting, Grammy-nominated score for thatgamecompany's Journey, comes a more surreal but no less wondrous musical score for the game Abzu. The game is very similar to Journey in that it's an indie game that tells its story without dialogue, but instead with a journey of sorts. Here, you swim with sharks, whales and schools of fish as you navigate the sunken depths of a world long forgotten, still holding ancient secrets waiting to be found.

It's hard to put Abzu alongside Journey, because Journey was and is a true masterpiece of musical composition, but Abzu is still an astounding and glorious wonder that deserves to be heard by all, and appreciated on all fronts. CD buffs, add it to your collection. Anyone who loves video game soundtracks or movie scores needs this in their collection.

Great soundtrack overall

Reviewed in the United States on January 27, 2017

Great soundtrack overall. Love any music with water as a theme. And the orchestras give me goosebumps- so good. Only thing I got against it is that a third of the songs are waaaay too short. Like 1 min- 1:30 range short. While the song Their Waters Were Mingled Together is 10 minutes (which I thoroughly enjoyed but the only one like that). Wish they could've extended them or something (editing wise), I wouldn't have minded.

This was a present attended for a friend. She was delighted for having this music. Me personaly, i 've bought the game and we played it together. The music really helps her to concentrate while drawling pictures. She also likes listening while travelling to work by train in the morning. The perfect gift without question.

Great Music (Soundtrack or otherwise)

Reviewed in the United States on August 10, 2016

I do not own a PS4 or the game, so in terms of a companion soundtrack to the game, I can't really comment. However, I can say that the music itself is gorgeous. It didn't quite leave the impression that Journey's soundtrack did, but it's still incredible. Austin Wintory continues his excellent track record as a game composer.

The soundtrack to Abzu is absolutely stunning! It has beautiful composition and orchestration and goes very well with this very beautiful game. Even for non-gamers, I highly recommend it.

A Sense of Awe and Wonder

Reviewed in Germany on July 9, 2019

Zu sagen der Score zu Abzu sei schön ist eine Untertreibung. Austin Wintory hat, ähnlich wie beim spirituellen Vorgänger Journey, eine traumhafte und anmutige, symphonische Begleitmusik komponiert die im Gegensatz zu Journey weniger melancholisch und sehnsüchtig, als vielmehr verspielt und abenteuerlich daherkommt.

Wobei beiden Scores gemein ist das sie von recht mystischer Natur sind, wie aus einer fernen Zeit oder einer anderen Welt. Magisch eben. Wobei gerade Abzu’s Musik ein Gefühl von Wunder erzeugt, wohingegen Journey eher das Gefühl von Einsamkeit vermittelt. Hervorstechen tut zudem der elegische Chor, der sich gleichzeitig zärtlich als auch mächtig anhört und dir unweigerlich einen Schauer über den Rücken jagt. Insgesamt ist die Musik zu Abzu jedoch eher ruhig, nahezu hypnotisch. Sie zieht dich in ihren Bann und lässt dich nicht mehr los. Daher ist sie am besten geeignet, wenn man einfach mal die Augen zu machen, abschalten und sich von der Musik davontragen lassen möchte.

Abzu’s Main Theme „To Know, Water“ ist so schön, lieblich und eingängig wie „Nascence“ aus Journey. Es bildet naturgemäß den Roten Faden des Scores und ist in etlichen Tracks zu hören. Das Einzige was mir persönlich noch fehlt ist ein Schluss-Song aller „I Was Born for This“. Wobei zugegebenermaßen der End-Credit-Track „Then Were Created the Gods in the Midst of Heaven“ ebenso für reichlich Gänsehaut sorgt, und im Grunde auch als rein chorales Lied bezeichnet werden kann.

Im Gegensatz zu Journey sind die meisten der 18 Tracks eher knapp von der Laufzeit her. Das längste Stück stellt hierbei „Their Waters Were Mingeld Together“, was auch den beeindruckendsten Part des Scores darstellt.

Fazit:

Austin Wintory ist ein echter Meister seines Fachs. Ehrlich gesagt wundert es mich dass wir nicht weitaus mehr von ihm sehen, bzw. hören. Gerade im Bereich der Filmmusik könnte der Mann sicher einiges zu Wege bringen. Abzu ist für mich auf einer Stufe mit Journey was die Musik anbelangt. Beide Scores zusammen ergänzen sich auch hervorragend. Ich selbst habe Abzu bislang nicht gespielt. Doch auch ohne das Spiel zu kennen, erzählt diese wundervolle und ausdrucksstarke Musik ihre ganz eigene Geschichte womit sie absolut für sich alleine stehen kann.

Insgesamt ist dies wieder einmal ein Paradebeispiel an fantastischer und ambitionierter Videospielmusik. Man sollte sich dieses Album UNBEDINGT anhören. Wer schon die Musik zu Journey geliebt hat, wird definitiv auch Gefallen an Wintory’s Beitrag zu Abzu finden.

Vollste Empfehlung!

Muy cómodo para estar escuchando de fondo

Reviewed in Mexico on March 9, 2018

Verified Purchase

La verdad la música está excelente, no he tenido oportunidad de jugar el videojuego, siendo honesto, pero la música se me hizo muy agradable, es muy relajante y tiene tintes alegres, no es música lúgubre ni tampoco incita (a mi parecer) a la profunda reflexión. Tiene muchos sonidos de vientos y cuerdas, sonidos tradicionales de orquesta, no es música electrónica. Primero pensé que me recordaría a la música de Donkey Kong de SNES, particularmente a la canción del bosque y la del mar (Stickerbrush Symphony y/o Aquatic Ambiance) pero la verdad este soundtrack es bastante más tradicional en términos de los instrumentos que utiliza. A mí me gustó mucho, pero no me hagan caso, vayan a escucharlo a Youtube y ahí se hacen su opinión, a mí me pareció muy bueno por sí solo.

究極のチルアウト

Reviewed in Japan on July 5, 2019

作中の音楽が良かったので当サントラを購入しました。ゲームをプレイし終えた今も毎晩寝る前に聴いて心地良い眠りを得ています。
ロンドンの混声楽団(London Voices)と同じくロンドンのハープ・アンサンブル(The ABZU Harp Ensemble)、ABZUの作曲家Austin Wintoryが指揮を執ったナッシュビルのオーケストラ(Nashville Scoring Orchestra)による楽曲群は深海のようにどこまでも深い境地に誘い込んで、その音の波にただ身を任せるとひたすら心地良い体験が得られます。
ゲーム未プレイの方でも良いアンビエントやチルアウトの一枚をお探しの方にお勧めです。
