Hey guys! I recently uploaded the soundtrack for another film by the same director as Pulse/Kairo, called 'Retribution'. Not many people viewed the video/downloaded the OST, and as a result the download link expired. I also do not have timestamps on the video. Maybe some of you could contribute timestamps, since I am really busy with work and life in general. Also, if any of you want me to reupload the OST on a filesharing site, let me know. Here is the video link: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aZvGhKuHgMabac0 Here is the CD on discogs: www.discogs.com/release/19026337-%E8%93%9C%E5%B3%B6%E9%82%A6%E6%98%8E-%E5%8F%AB-Retribution-Music-Collection?ev=item-vc

This is (might be one of the few) horror movie that's so rare, it has NO jumpscares. At all.

[@išsaugokkasetės]

the japanese just have magic to make stuff disturbing without jumpscares

[@ShadowYamoto]

The soundtrack is perfect for such a dark atmosphere movie.

[@atoma8921]

I certainly agree!

oh god, this + that scene give me the fucking creeps man.. and I've been watching horror films since I was a kid

[@jonathant4902]

I was just searching the ost for that one scene and I immediately regret my decision. Fking wailing scares the shit out of me.

[@luke9947]

More than one scene with ghosts, are you referring to the one where there’s the sofa?

@@luke9947 Yeah the one in the alley

Search on here Kairo | Anatomy Of The Scariest Scene Ever, the uploader of the video explains that scene perfect.

[@hillscasino]

my god, even the soundtrack is peak.

[@Zombianca42]

As someone who only likes to listen to soundtracks, this is one of my new favorites. Thank you for uploading the entire album.

[@JesseDanLee]

I listen to this while I’m studying to keep me alert 👍🏻

[@fredmorrison2635]

Now that I've liked all the "likes", I give you sincere thanks for this soundtrack. I guess it's fitting to say "Kairo" haunts me in a way few movies ever have. I always liked the music, but hearing it this way gives me a deeper appreciation for it.

[@florianm6011]

OH ! MY ! THOUSANDS THANKS for this whole soundtrack, i've been seeking for it for YEARS until now !!! I'm very grateful to you, definitely. Seen the movie when it was released in 2001 and i met the director too. Thank you very much again !

[@atoma8921]

Glad I could help :)

[@kangaroocoffin7049]

Thank you for uploading these soundtracks, I love this director.

[@ShintyShinto]

this film got sound so right

[@pal_clips]

u right bro

[@PalmettoGD]

The scenes with the music from 8:29 are the scariest ones until you see what the title of it translates too and then it all makes sense

[@PalmettoGD]

nobody should rank their scariest films of all time until they've seen this

[@user-is2mj2ig4v]

Aint even a horror movie -_-

[@išsaugokkasetės]

man, without any jumpscares and it’s still scarier than a movie with like 24,000 of them

[@c64walkabout40]

Made the mistake of watching this while family was away. Woke up at 1AM to the imagined sound of something running top speed down the stairs toward where I was in bed on the first floor.

[@GoldenLarka]

Wow thanks so much for this dude. Love the song at 25:14

I've watched Pulse for three times, How surprised it still moves me like first time, not only that but also getting into depth with showing the extra of information as hinting now this life. 🙂 Couldn't be more happy to think of watching all of his works for one after another scenes😄. Spirited Away meet Pulse just like Princess Mononoke meet Cure in same years, even critics won’t think of its' funny relating easily. Must say Kiyoshi Kurosawa is most underrated Japanese filmmaker also perfectly inherit Kurosawa this surname in film & TV series works. There's most lacking in this world:" Simple and sincerely fully as purely natural when become a people live in this world. And people like him who always been showed the best way as pretty humble." People always take focus on anime, but live-action works gimme the harvest and influence as much more than it since childhood. It's absolutely not about denying, just being my honest with you. 🙂

Thanks OP, a truly haunting score to such an amazing film, which the OST was more available

[@atoma8921]

Indeed, it was nearly impossible to obtain. I'm glad it's out there for the world to enjoy. Music should be preserved for everyone!

[@FoolyCoolyBlackLagoony]

How the hell did you find the full thing? Glad someone is preserving it, finding CDs of this is impossible.

[@atoma8921]

​@@FoolyCoolyBlackLagoony I met and befriended a guy who had access to a lot of private sites with rare soundtracks. He eventually blocked and deleted me after I jokingly referred to the Japanese as 'Japs'(despite the fact he was a white American, lmao). So luckily I got what I needed before being blocked without warning or a second chance.

[@FoolyCoolyBlackLagoony]

@@atoma8921 Thats...Unfortunate.

on of the best and most exestential dready jhorror movie, i fell in love especially with the soundtrack, balances perfectly terror, immense sadness and beauty, just like Kairo. thank ypu for the amazing upload💜

[@gregtorrance]

When I listen this original soundtrack, I think to the original soundtrack of "The thing" by Ennio Morricone and "the brood" by Howard Shore.

Thank you so much for sharing this OST! It's beautiful, just like the film it's made for. I'm still looking for this album on the internet for download, yet to no avail. I'm kind of umconfortable by asking this, but... If it's not too much trouble for you, could we have another shot with a reupload of this gem, por favor? 😅

[@MechanizedWerewolf]

Great soundtrack. I liked the movie, I just thought the ending did not fit with the rest of the movie at all. Thank you for uploading it.

best ost to relax and fall asleep to.

Don’t know about that, shit be sp00ky as fuck. Glad you’re enjoying it though.

[@gud3742]

Like you start to experience orgasmic levels of Kairo. Imagine the best orgasm you've ever had and then multiply it by a thousand. You realize that caring about anything at all is completely idiotic. From the highest perspective if you realize that everything is love then that's it. Anything that happens is absolute love and nothing could be better. Everything is absolutely perfect.
