# ActRaiser Original Soundtrack & Symphonic Suite
|
||
|
||
{: .img-center }
|
||
|
||
Yuzo Koshiro's acclaimed, if not *historic*, soundtrack for the SNES classic ActRaiser has been
|
||
remastered with some extra goodies. PC88 versions of songs, many of which unused for the game, have
|
||
been included alongside the OST on the first disc, and the second disc is a new Symphonic Suite
|
||
performance by the New Japan BGM Philharmonic Orchestra, performed in 2018 at Ancient Festival.
|
||
|
||
ActRaiser's OST is timeless, and including an orchestral performance as well is just icing on the
|
||
cake. The mix of action scene and quasi-ceremonial songs throughout the OST are classic
|
||
Yuzo Koshiro and classic Quintet, making this not just a great OST, but also an interesting example
|
||
of the thematic style found in Quintet's early SNES games.
|
||
|
||
ActRaiser can be kind of hard to put one's
|
||
finger on, at times, a perennial favorite but surely *weird* and maybe not all that *great* of a
|
||
game, with the 2021 ActRaiser Renaissance making an attempt to flesh out both the action and city
|
||
maintenance gameplay a bit, but not in any way that wholly changes anyone's memory of what
|
||
ActRaiser-the-game actually is. It's lovable despite its faults, maybe in spite of them, but
|
||
nevertheless, the soundtrack --- *man, the soundtrack* --- is a classic work, and does an amazing
|
||
job showcasing the breadth and depth of Yuzo Koshiro's style.
