Susumu Hirasawa - A Drop Filled With Memories

[@Ilegator]

Man... This OST is just in another league. Susumu Hirasawa literally created this "Paprika feeling". I think there are really few films that can do that.

[@tja9212]

absolute another level, the movie as a whole and hirasawa in all of his work.

i swear this mans music goes beyond simple sountrack music. theres an absolute mastery to his craft. what he's able to accomplish with the combination of his composition ability and his production capabilities in sound design and use of electronic music is honestly genius. it's composition at its most classic sense and electronic production in perfect unison and i fucking love it. only fitting that a genius artist like him was paired with a fellow genius in satoshi kon.

"For Kon, 'fiction' and 'reality' are not opposing concepts, but both are homogeneous in the sense that they are both 'painted things,' and the only thing that separates the two is 'what is drawn there."

[@curesaul5749]

This world deserved to see what more Satoshi Kon could do with his talent and passion for animated films. It is very sad we could only experience it so much, but at least we have what he left behind to remember him for a long time. Hope you are doing great up there my guy.

[@inofmotion]

But did we deserve it? :) I understand though, we would have valued his work very intently. He will inevitably live on in his works and in those he inspires and those inspired by them.

[@manukahonei]

A Drop Filled With Memories, Meditation Field, Chaser, and The Girl in Byakkoya are all different variations of the same song and vocals.

I believe it's to reflect on the repetitive nature of dreams, as they may be different each time, but often repeat certain things from previous dreams.

[@TMS-Oddbot]

What makes it so great is that all 4 are different enough that I think each is quite worthy of a separate listen. It also really shows the versatility of music. One set of notes can be intense, calm, hype, or...uh, I guess also hype but now with more vocals.

If I'm being honest...I watched Paprika because I heard this soundtrack in the trailer....

[@LA-nm1jt]

I am here for the exact same reason, and I am yet to watch Paprika. I think I will now definitely be watching it ❤

[@ScarLighted]

Same... but cus i heard parade song. Watched it and Paprika is now one of my faves.

[@alonsofernandez1]

Millennium actress is good, but in this one the good thing is the soundtrack

[@OlOneEye]

I remember about a year ago, I had a college class with this movie for film study, and I fell in love with the music and I used to play the Paprika soundtrack all the time. About a month later, I bought a onewheel, and I used to love riding it around my campus late at night when there was nobody else around. Some great memories.

[@mcam27]

I'm so glad to hear that this film is being studied in a college setting

[@ironmongol75]

Good grief. Susumu Hirasawa is up there with Vangelis, Tomita, Tangerine Dream and Mort Garson as a composer of some of the most beautiful music I've heard. This is just gorgeous in every way!

I know what you mean. Something else worth experiencing that also feels heavenly is a video titled "Jacob Collier - The Audience Choir (Live at O2 Academy Brixton, London)" How a room full of random voices can sound so angelic is both beguiling and transcendental.

[@idonteven3712]

A floridian priest would like to have a word with you

[@tja9212]

I really adore how this whole soundtracks works with the same assets and creates so different emotional constructs around it, which the movies knows to use. hirasawa is such a great artist in using this redundance.

[@Hotel-20]

the music and visuals played off each other so well in this film. i had no idea what to expect going into Paprika, but the opening credit sequence and music assured me i was in for something fantastic!!

[@Slurrps]

I haven’t even seen the film yet this song touched my heart so

[@TheouAegis]

How have you not seen it yet?! Watch it! Buy it and watch it! I'm not sure if it's Satoshi Kon's greatest work, but it's definitely one of the best examples of his works. Perfect Blue is probably my favorite film of his; my fiancee bought me a DVD copy to replace my VHS and then watched it with me that night - and she doesn't like anime. A week or so later we watched Tokyo Godfathers, which I had on DVD; I fell asleep because I was tired, but she watched the entire film and liked it (said she even cried at times). I need to get a copy of Millennium Actress and make her watch that -- another beautiful Kon movie. I made her watch Paranoia Agent over 3 days; I never tire of that show. "Magnetic Rose" from the film Memories was the best segment of that film thanks in no small part to Kon's involvement. His short "O-ha-yo" from Ani*kuri 15 is so pointless (like most of the commercial shorts), but it has so much of Kon's charm and creativity crammed into it; I tear up every time I watch it because it was the last thing he completed before he died. I also have his manga "Tropic of the Sea", "Dream Fossil", and "Opus". Yeah, I'm a huge fan of Satoshi Kon's writing and directing. He's also one of the reasons I like Susumu Hirasawa so much, since Satoshi Kon commissioned Hirasawa for Paprika, Paranoia Agent, and Millennium Actress. He was slated to work on Dreaming Machine (which seemed to have died with Kon...). He also had music for the BERSERK anime and game. A few of my favorite songs of his were on the Detonator Orgun soundtrack. If you like this track, you should listen to Hirasawa's work for "The Lost Legend", a theme park spectacle.

Sorry. Chiba Atsuko: You're such a slob. Tokita Kohsaku: I know. Chiba Atsuko: You're fat, slow and sloppy. It's not the outside that counts, but there's a limit to that too. Tokita Kohsaku: Yeah. Chiba Atsuko: To think, a food disposal like you is the genius of the century. Tokita Kohsaku: I swallow everything. Chiba Atsuko: I know. You're so much fun. OP's note: Sometimes saying how you really feel about someone you care about could really solve so many problems! Atsuko brought back Tokita back from the brink by confessing her love for him in their shared dream/memory.

Can anyone help me identify the interval between the first two notes of this song? I'm starting to learn how to identify intervals, and since I love this song and listen to it a lot, I was thinking about using it to remember how a specific interval sounds like. I'm guessing it's higher than perfect fifth? But not an octave? I could be absurdly wrong though

[@salmonandsoup]

It's actually a... I guess it would be perfect 13th? It goes from an F4 to a C6, so if it was in the same octave (aka an F4 to a C5), it would be a fifth. The way the synth bounces around octaves makes it messy, but you could consider the first two notes the lady sings a fifth.
