Tenkunoshiro Laputa Original Soundtrack

I love Studio Ghibli films, and Joe Hisaishi has become one of my favorite composers. It's beautiful music with lots of character. If you love listening to movie soundtracks, I'm pretty sure this one will become one of your favorites (along with Spirited Away and Howl's Moving Castle).It might be helpful for you to see the song titles in English, so I'm listing them here:1. "The Girl Who Fell from the Sky" – 2:272. "Morning in Slag Ravine" – 3:043. "A Fun Brawl (Pursuit)" – 4:274. "Memories of Gondoa" – 2:465. "Discouraged Pazu" – 1:466. "Robot Soldier (Resurrection/Rescue)" – 2:347. "Carrying You" – 2:02 (Chorus: Suginami Children's Choir)8. "Sheeta's Decision" – 2:059. "On the Tiger Moth" – 2:3210. "An Omen to Ruin" – 2:1811. "The Sea of Cloud Under the Moonlight" – 2:3312. "Laputa: Castle in the Sky" – 4:3613. "The Collapse of Laputa" – 2:00 (Chorus: Suginami Children's Choir)14. "Carrying You" – 4:07 (sung by Azumi Inoue)

I especially love the last three pieces. Joe Hisaishi is a master of music, and expertly blends eastern themes and western melody styles. Robot Soldier / Resurrection uses some of the same themes from Robot Carnival, where he was one of three contributors (not all the stories are top or happy, but they were somewhat groundbreaking at the time). What I like about the Japanese release is that it has more of the music, rather than a majority or a condensed version. The downside is I can't read Japanese, so I depend on wikipedia for the playlist, and the liner notes are beyond me. Great to listen to while I'm writing fiction. Have Spirited Away and Princess Mononoke, too. All highly recommended.

This is the Japanese version of the Laputa soundtrack, featuring the original synth soundtrack, which I much prefer to the American version.Watch out - I got a pirated CD when I bought this. It still has all the correct music on it, but it's not a legitimate release.

I love love love this soundtrack!!!

This album is magnificent. The music is beautiful. If you have enjoyed other work Hisaishi has done for Miyazaki films, more than likely this will be no different. It's peaceful and melodic; then suddenly, it attacks with dazzling turbulence. I very rarely write reviews but the only other one did not do justice to this work and may have turned you away from something so marvelous.

Fast and without any damage! Thanks!

As others have written, this soundtrack is absolutely beautiful. The recurring themes are so special. I'd recommend this to any lover of Miyazki's films or great music.

been trying forever to find this sound track, only problem is when loaded the title are in Japanese, so you must rename the tracks.

Le Château dans le ciel fait partie de mes films préférés et j'ai toujours voulu avoir la bande-son du film, notamment pour certaines musiques particulières. Lorsque je suis tombé sur cette page il y a quelques jours, je n'ai pas hésité à le prendre. Les musiques sont excellentes.Cependant, je trouve vraiment dommage que le dessus de mon boitier est été endommagé durant le transport. Deux fissures assez visibles sont présentes sur le dessus. :/Je n'y avais pas fait attention en achetant, mais ce CD est la version japonaise. Le micro livret et le boitier sont en japonais, mais cela ne change rien à la musique qui ne contient aucune parole.

Consegna perfetta, confezione ottima per proteggere il CD

Après en avoir commandé un qui n'est jamais arrivé, le vendeur m'en a renvoyé un autre gratuitement. Album conforme à la description, on replonge dans l'univers du film, musique sublime.

全曲良い。大音量で聴いた。

Absolutely amazing, and I will say the same for all of the Joe Hisaishi's OSTs that I have bought.I listen to all of them very often, even over the music in my video-games.
