Raizing Battle Garegga Soundtrack

[@malworld.5535]

I love this 90s house and techno soundtrack! Manabu Namiki did say in an article on Google saying he was influenced by techno artists such as Underground Resistance, Derrick May and Carl Craig, as well as techno producers for R & S Records Dave Angel, CJ Bolland, The Source Experience, Jaydee and Sven Van Hees! It's pretty cool!

This soundtrack is one of the reasons why it's always absolutely necessary to install an extra external subwoofer to every arcade cabinet.

This upload sounds better than the official soundtrack release. Great work on giving this soundtrack the treatment it deserves!

[@adg648]

That's what I was thinking, sounds better than the soundtrack release, but also sounds better than the arcade and Saturn rips. Like the snare in Megalomaniac in this video is way more prominent than in any other version.

[@shakesquire84]

The bass is so prominent in these tracks - I love it!

[@petirgarda1005]

[@bigoof9654]

Yousuke Yasui seems to be heavily inspired by Namiki-San's work when it comes to certain game OSTs he has done. The arranged version of the Name Entry track in the Mushihimesama OST is just one big tribute to Battle Garegga.

I found it hard to listen to each song individually (as I have some major preferences). So, I looked up great gameplay of the game that had the music as a backdrop to each individual stage. Now that I have context, each track sounds amazing and none of them disappoint. The instrumentation is just so perfect to me. Everything has the right amount of "pop" and balance. I switched to my wired Sennheisers just to see if I could hear more nuance on a YT video.

I like this video's recording of "Blood Brothers in the Dawn" better than other versions on KZbin. Somehow this recording properly captures the combination of percussive beats and beeps in the background, which seem inaudible on other KZbin videos of the same version of the same song.

[@serraramayfield9230]

Daniel McCormick It's all about emulation and audio mastering...or in the case of official CD's, the master which the CD's are from and how it is made.

[@one_step_sideways]

It's only just a ton of reverb added to the music. The japanese absolutely love adding copious amounts of reverb to all FM synth VGM music. This has comparably little reverb, and that's how it actually makes the music sound way better, instead of ruining it, if you add too much.

[@Bloodreign1]

This soundtrack was blessed to use by a musical genius, Manabu Naimiki, who is memory serves me right, works for Cave these days. But Cave seems to have stopped making arcade games. You must not stop Cave, you must continue to make last bosses that are harder than your last game. As for this game, it is bliss, but sadly expensive on the Saturn. I was however fortunate to get Kingdom Grandprix on the Saturn for a nice price ($20), not my favorite Raizing game (Garegga is, well ahead of Armed Police Batrider, and Battle Bakraid), but has a nice diverse cast that were guests in this game (hidden), and were in 3 games of their own (Mahou Daisakusen, Shippu Mahou Daisakusen, known as Kingdom Grand Prix, and Dimahoo).
