Yoko Kanno 'Music' Collection

[Feltica]

YAY YOKO KANNO!!! *downloading spree*

[antihero]

On Gods name why rapidshare? They only allow downloading of 1 cd/day..

Sendspace etc is a lot better :<

[Phil S]

Will you have CM Yoko up?

[antihero]

I have CM Yoko, but it kinda sucks :< Only a few good songs.

[ninjaguydan]

Thank you for all of this, Yoko is totally one of my favorite composers now.

Are all 5 links part of the escaflowne 1 ost or just the first?

"Update":

I did some reorganizing (a couple hours worth). Now links are Forum Members viewable only.

I will upload Beulah_Page's Origa singles and other misc stuff one of these days.

...Now I will take a break and play some COD4 on Xbox Live .

[WicketW.Warrick]

Is it possible to get Elegant World (The Show Must Go On) OST up there? I believe it's the only Yoko Kanno album I don't have (where she writes most of the songs)

[jedinewtype]

Update - Added to YK section:

-all 4 Darker Than Black Singles
(I put the 1st OP&ED in one RAR and the 2nd OP&ED in another for ease of download.)

I'll answer a few questions:

LA RAJA UNOS DE LOS MEJORES POST QUE E VISTO!!!! EXELENTE MEN MUY AGRADECIDO!!!! DOMO ARIGATO

Grazias

Found a 320 kbps version of track 3 from the Ai no Field single (and scans if you don't have them): [Hidden link. Register to see links.]

Curious that you didn't put up Maaya's Tanabota 2 concert...

Maaya's Tanabota 2 concert sounded horrible/inaudible.

Awesome 320 kbps collection. It's just a sham you choose to use Rapidshit and, as a result, it'll take forever to download the Cowboy Bebop stuff.

All I can say to your RS complaints is... [Hidden link. Register to see links.], It opens doors you wouldn't believe. Stuff (13GB) that would take a week to get off of [Hidden link. Register to see links.] takes a couple hours using a 'DL Manager'.

Thanks for making this list. Was having huge trouble finding the singles!

Yoko Kanno also composed the opening and ending for Oban Star Racers (which I haven't watched...). Anyway, there are multiple versions of the opening in different languages. I managed to find the full-length Japanese version, which you can get here if you're interested:

[Hidden link. Register to see links.]

Sung by AKINO. Rest of the soundtrack is by Taku Iwasaki.

If you have the "WHOLE" OP/ED Singles or [Hidden link. Register to see links.], PLEASE post them, they are extremely rare...I think.

I wonder if it'd be possible to get a torrent of the 320kpbs collection up. I gave up on the LOSSLESS torrent because 20Gb is too much at 5kbps haha. Sweet stuff though, I may get a rapidshare account now.

Also, which albums would you recommend I get first?

I recommend:

YK
Jazz
-Cowboy Bebop
-Darker than Black

Orchestra
-Escaflowne
-Turn A Gundam

Orchestra/Electronic
-Ghost In The Shell - Stand Alone Complex
-Sousei No Aquarion
-Wolf's Rain

Orchestra/Pop
-Macross Plus

"Kiddie"
-Napple Tale

Maaya
-Easy Listening
-Hemisphere (Single)
-Tune The Rainbow (Single)

Origa: Unlike Maaya music whick YK composes (most of the time), Origa has her own Pop sound.

I have CM Yoko, but it kinda sucks :< Only a few good songs.

Can you upload it?

[Feltica]

[gloomyangel92]

=( the link didnt appear [Hidden link. Register to see links.] copy paste... i guess =P

[Kaizo]

First: thanks for an awesome collection. I've always loved Kanno's work on Cowboy Bebop.

Second: That being said, I'm looking for some reccomendations as to other works in the same sort of vein as the instrumental jazz from Cowboy Bebop, and especially this tune from Darker Than Black, "Go Dark." It kind of reminds me of Herbie Hancock, sort of a jazz-funk. Can anyone reccomend similar sorts of tunes?

I just downloaded pretty much all the maaya sakamoto albums, origa albums, and yoko kanno albums in one day after giving into a rapidshare account (1 month is pretty cheap). All i have to say is holy crap hard drive rape and you sir are awesome!! It's amazing how many of the origa albums are hard to buy online. I think 4 out of the 9 are actually available to buy NEW somewhere.

[Sirusjr]

I just downloaded all the honey and clover music from nipponsei (all most likely in 320). Would that be something you would be interested in me putting up in rapidshare (its all yoko kanno) or should i just tell people to go to their IRC?

Well YES, because [Hidden link. Register to see links.]. I just realized i'm missing that OST (I can't believe i missed that). If you have the movie OP & ED, I'll add that too. + Nipponsei says they're 192kbps to just let you [Hidden link. Register to see links.]..

[Sirusjr]

Yeah ok ill put up rapidshare links for the movie ost, OP and ED. I'll put the OP and ED together with a remaining part from the movie if needed to save people time. You might want to re-upload whatever i put up because my account is only good for a month.
EDIT: I put them all in one rar because its under 100 mb combined.

[Sirusjr]

[Hidden link. Register to see links.]
Honey and Clover movie ost, OP, and ED in one rar. All taken straight from nipponsei and they are still zipped the way they came from nipponsei irc.
