my favorite of mai's work so far, i have to say after playing the game that goes along with it, the soundtrack is memorable more than anything. Weirdly enough got a bit of chills on my back hearing A9 which is something I haven't really felt with a work since hearing Oxygene for the first time when not playing the game. Overall quite good, I still can't believe she can make this shit on garageband and have it still sound this solid, i pray to god mai gets FL Studio or something ... read more

I don't understand a lick of Japanese and yet this is probably the most personal and calming album ive ever heard

I listened to this quite awhile back and forgot to rate it, Ocarina of Time is one of the best games of all time and is just a vibe in general, go play it
enjoyable but i don't see a reason to listen to this over somethin like Neil Young or Nico when im lookin for that folk itch

"@masivnipero full album listening isn't how I typically listen to stuff, just specifically when I am rating stuff on AOTY that is the "arbitrary rule" I set for myself."
On Cindy Lee - Diamond Jubilee
"@masivnipero I understand your point but when we're talking about albums as a medium generally the "experience" being rated here is based on how the album feels to listen to in full, one sitting. With this one it got more repetitive near the end and that was mainly due to the length"
