Here is my yearly upload I guess :) Been planning for months, decided to get this out today for sure.
Kimetsu no Yaiba was a goldmine of soundtracks, at least in its Season 1, but almost all were blocked worldwide. No matter, this is one that I really liked in Season 2.
This is not in the general format of soundtracks I upload and I had to trim out the good part. It is more of a Prologue theme for the TV Anime version of the Movie and plays at the start of first episode.
The track has a very nice orchestral composition to it and is primarily a sort of composition for introducing Rengoku. It can also be said to be a sort of theme for Rengoku which is what the section I uploaded here is, though overall the track has a very Kimetsu no Yaiba~ish theme with those vocals as you hear near the end of this track as well.
The Xylophone (or synthesized Xylophone) sets off a decent base tune that fills in the gaps between different sections of the track. However it is not the only purpose of it, as it does continues in those theme sections as well. Its nice with those violins sort of backing it up in the start of the track. You can also hear some sustained xylophone notes at 0:15 in the background, very faint, which sets up the upcoming section of the track from 0:17.
From 0:17, the trumpets (or clarinet, I am not 100% sure but sounds like processed trumpet) come to the front with those very nice rapid triangle tings. At 0:30. the theme plays again with slower triangles but with a flute accompanying the trumpet (or clarinet). This tune really sets a very nice atmosphere for the upcoming best section of the track at 0:40.
There are very faint vocals in the background from 0:40 onwards, and together with the rest of the instruments going into a higher scale from 0:41 to 0:45 go into the climax at 0:46. I absolutely love the 0:46 to 1:00 section. That theme just sounds amazing in my opinion. The violins in the background, and those slow and repeating horns just add so much depth to the track. Not to mention that xylophone theme also comes back in this section. Rest of the instruments die down at 1:00 leaving only the xylophone (and some other instrument). The xylophone again acts as a sort of filler between the next section of the track at 1:19.
This time the xylophone is joined by a set of cellos adding a sort of rush and intensity to the track along with some synthesized sounds at 1:26. A set of vocal also come in at 1:33. These are the signature Kimetsu no Yaiba sort of vocals. The xylophone and those rapid cellos continue in this section adding a sort of ominous feel overall. However it is a pretty short section quickly ending at 1:45 and that is where I decided to close off the track as well.
The full version of the track is decent as well but I kind of wanted to highlight this particular section the most as this is what I mostly listen to as well.
Hope you all like it as much as I do.
Oh yeah by the way, this track does not have any name, and simply naming it "Prologue" felt like doing injustice. So I sort of named it something more meaningful! The track is called "M1" and is part of this album - vgmdb.net/albu...
Our rating of this track : 8/10
Overall rating of this anime in terms of its background music : 8/10 (season 1 was a 10/10 for me)
