What They Say
Call it brilliantly complex and radically ambiguous, call it ultimately rewarding, but whatever the case, the science-fiction mecha series, 'RahXephon,' has impressed viewers with its engagingly mysterious plot and superb animation, while displaying a lush marquee soundtrack that fans will not want to miss out on. With the release of 'RahXephon Original Soundtrack 1' composer Ichiko Hashimoto's musical attention to detail and willingness to experiment with a minimalist approach result in aesthetically gorgeous instrumentals that will reign supreme with listeners. This 21-track CD features two tracks produced by Yoko Kanno (Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex, Macross Plus, Cowboy Bebop, Escaflowne), as well as three vocal songs, including the intro theme, 'Hemisphere' performed by voice actress Maaya Sakamoto (Wolf's Rain, Escaflowne, Cardcaptor Sakura) and the ending theme, 'Dream's Egg' sung by Mayumi Hashimoto.
