Dual Destinies OST: 2-11 Investigation ~ Core 2013

Music from the official soundtrack to Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Dual Destinies. Support the game when it releases on the Nintendo eShop on October 24th, 2013!

[@imaz1607]

This sounds so much like the core investigation soundtrack from miles edgeworth investigations

[@linkenski]

Yeah, which sounded like a remix of the original Core 2001, but it lacks the original's sense of uncovering something earth-shattering. This sounds nice, but I don't think it works that well in the game aside from the fade-in.

[@FriedFrenchFries]

@@linkenski All the Investigation ~ Core themes have similar formula and motif to make all other Core themes after 2001 to sound like a Core theme. They all pretty much start the same and have similar instrumentation, rhythm and pattern for the rest of the song. 2011 being more of an exception but it still starts the same. This also goes for pretty much every main theme in the game. Pursuit, Cross-Examination, Objection!, Confess the Truth.

[@underscorebeabo]

I think it sounds more like the core investigation theme from Apollo Justice.

[@gavinloewe3647]

So true I never noticed that before

[@shlokwaghela9560]

Same composer

[@Jingleboy14]

The song of "Getting shit done"

[@yes-iAMizu]

I think that most people hate it because it is not the usual core theme we are used to-intense and makes us pressured. However, this theme is good honestly. It gives you the curiosity like logic themes have. For me, this would be perfect as a middlegame investigation theme.

[@yes-iAMizu]

It also sounds like a mix of JFA's and T&T's middlegame.

[@CorpCoCEO]

It’s not a bad *song*, but they used it as though it was a standard core theme and it just isn’t

[@Danielinhoni]

Good lord, that synth bass at 1:01. So good.

[@Breach-Clear]

1:01

[@jay-el9pg]

I think of this song as a beam of hope Whenever this plays it feels like you have a chance to get back at the arguments presented in court I know it sounds like a logic theme but if you think about it the logic of this theme could be realizing what actually happened and putting the pieces of the puzzle in your head

[@JanneSala]

This song always gets me pumped for the next trial!

A few hours ago I commented, "Good song. Sucks as an Investigation Core theme." I listened to this song a few more times and honestly I take it back. This is a pretty good Investigation Core theme for what it sets out to accomplish. Most other themes of this name are meant for big plot twist-like moments, but in a more shocking way. This feels like a song that comes at a big plot twist, but also you're figuring out how to fit it into the case and make things make sense, which is an interesting take on it. Also worth noting, the percussion in this song is very reminiscent of Investigation Core 2001 which is cool. And, despite repeating the same few-note melody throughout the entire song, it somehow manages to be overall very catchy. So, yeah, good song. Even good as an Investigation Core theme.

[@nonamebro0032]

The synth at 1:01 sounds so good

[@eli2112]

This is the best track of the game

[@apollojustice5338]

This sounds straight out of the Investigations games.

[@SamnoldTelfort]

Theme that plays when i get slightly more serious when fighting a foe.

[@theresatesalul]

Is it just me or does it sound like an old Mario kart track

[@zhanethehedgehog7091]

We got a lead!

[@OGMagaro]

this feels like it’d be on the original ds

[@Failentin]

I think this would work better as a Revisualization theme.

[@keandrewebb5659]

definitely the most creative core theme. but 2016 core California Is the best

[@IschmarVI]

also, core 2002 but that is mainly because of THAT moment

[@NealCamerlengo]

I love the remix of Core 2001.

[@captainteaaddict]

I think this doesnt fit for a core theme. Music wise its good, but it seems to me like a middle stage theme more then a core theme. a core theme should be more drmatic i think.

[@nekopirate44]

the music is pretty cool but the game was too easy overall so when the music gets too dramatic (or anything) it kind of makes me feel silly.

[@AlexGrom]

Well, I tried to do the first 3 games on PC, and I failed to do the last one without guide after 1st part. So I think lowering difficulty is kinda good decision if you want to get a bit more players. Although I admit I completed this game without any guides, so it might be too easy if you like detective genre at all

[@Trep3]

@@AlexGrom dont play detective game if you're going to complain about difficulty, plus guides exist as you said so I dont see the problem, they fixed the difficulty in SoJ though fortunately

[@AltairYoshi]

I kinda feel like this and Opening 2013 should have swapped around. This one doesn't feel very serious enough for the times it plays. It's still pretty good though.

This is possibly the only track in the series I don't like. I love almost all of the songs from the Ace Attorney series, but this just doesn't make me feel like it's the critical part of an investigation. It makes me imagine Phoenix, Apollo and Athena doing some silly dance.

@@TyrrellBelmont If you've listened to other core themes in previous games you shouldn't really have to ask.

[@PoyoPowerPlant]

It's a different taste that refuses to echo past iterations, and for that, it's really good.

[@kotgaming5739]

I hate this theme, to be honest. It's not like those early games where when it plays core you know that you are close to the dark, scary truth and not this childish bullshit

[@OldSavXL]

@BitterOrange I live for comments like these. I found this core theme odd at first, but that's only because it was different. Now I appreciate it for what it is, and very much like that it's different.

[@captainteaaddict]

@BitterOrange Look, I agree that it cant be the same every game, but in my opinion this one truly doesnt fit to be a core theme. Its not like it sounds bad, its just that it sounds like a middle theme, not a core theme. Those should have a little bit more mystery to them. Plus, capcom Can make energetic core themes that dont sound out of place, just listen to core 2007. Its energetic but it has a little bit of a dark accent to it. I could of course be talking nonsense because in the moments that in most AA games a core theme would be played AJ plays suspense 2007

[@PoyoPowerPlant]

So unbashful about having a terrible opinion, you are! Surely you aren't scared of change? You'll never survive a day in the Ace Attorney fandom if you can't have something new!
