The group blends traditional folk and world music influences with cutting-edge electronic production. The result is one of the most distinctive and influential film scores to come out of Japan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe music pairs chanting voices, Balinese gamelan, and Japanese festival-style percussion with synthesizers and early digital sampling. It sounds both ancient and futuristic, which suits the film's story of Neo-Tokyo. Tracks such as \"Battle Against the Clown,\" \"Winds Over Neo-Tokyo,\" and \"Tetsuo\" show the range of Yamashiro's vision, from raw ritual intensity to eerie, atmospheric tension.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(209, 72, 65);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHandling Time Note:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e ** Please allow an additional 4-5 business days for this item's shipment. **\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLabel: Victory (4)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Electronic, Folk, World, \u0026amp; Country, Stage \u0026amp; Screen\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRelease Date: 11\/22\/2024\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemember, for our lowest prices, always order directly from \u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(184, 49, 47);\"\u003e Joco Records\u003c\/span\u003e!\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTRACKS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA1.
