OST Focus – Battle! Divine Entity

Today on OST focus we switch to another series: The Masters of Pokémon, another animated series created by VanishingSVST. This time we look at the Encounter and the Battle theme of a mysterious character who calls himself Lane.

Usually the important trainers of this series will have an Encounter theme, a Battle theme (both made with primarily Pokémon B2/W2 instruments) and a Danger theme for their last Pokémon (basically a remix of the Battle theme). This one is a bit different though. He only uses one Pokémon to test Kayla, the series’ main protagonist. So there was no need for a Danger theme. However, due to the importance of the character, his themes are not made with Pokémon B2/W2 instruments.

The video features the Pokémon battle from episode 2 along with some artwork. Maybe you’ll even notice a subtle change in the artwork during the video:

I tried to make the song sound very epic and for that purpose included Oath to Order from The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask and Brahman from Shin Megami Tensei: Digital Devil Saga 2. It certainly stands out. As usual, if you like it, I’d advise you to check out the OST page for more. Although that would be spoilers for future OST Focus posts~

Next time on OST focus, I’ll show you one of my favorites so far, Battle! Joe Ximer. That’s right. Looks like my avatar has made it into this series…and as  a comical character no less! I hope to be able to finish the final crossover until next Sunday, although time’s a bit short, because…you know, Smash Bros. and such~

Bloody Fears

At last! The third of the 4 Touhou crossovers is a mix of Castlevania and Touhou, so we call it Touhouvania! Took quite a while, but now I’m done with my thesis for the most part, so I was finally able to finish this song. I hope I haven’t got rusty in the meantime…

Actually that idea isn’t new, as long-time followers already know since U.N. Owen was a Wicked Child. There exists a really good fan game called Koumajou Densetsu: Scarlet Symphony. It was so well-received, that it actually even got a sequel called Koumajou Densetsu II: Stranger’s Requiem. The first one features Reimu “Belmont” Hakurei as the protagonist with her Hakurei whip thing and Marisa as an exist, while the second one (as far as I know) features Sakuya as the protagonist. Certainly Alucard-like in terms of style and even makes sense with all her rumored Vampire Hunter back story.

But now to the song itself: Bloody Fears! Born from a fan suggestion, this song includes Rumia’s themes and Bloody Tears, as well as two other famous Castlevania tunes (Beginning and Vampire Killer). The song might be a whole mess, but I kinda like it. Probably because I just like Vampire Killer and Rumia’s themes? I suppose…

As usual you’ll find the song, the download and the video below. Want to show your appreciation? Donate!

And here’s the video:

The grand finale in our “Crossover Month” is something special and I don’t want to spoil that~ Let me just say that the Reimu & Sanae music series gets a 4th installment.

However, once again we’ll have another OST focus next week, featuring Divine Entity.

OST Focus – VS Xeno Ridley

Today on OST focus we have something I completely forgot about. While I announced last week that we’re going to change to another series, the latest tune from Super Mario: Vanishing Existence, the animated series created by VanishingSVST, is still waiting for its spotlight. It’s the theme of Xeno Ridley, basically a mechanized Portal version of Ridley.

As of now, the song has only been teased in the “trailer” for the 4th episode of Super Mario: Vanishing Existence, but it might not take too long until that episode is finished, so you better stay tuned for some top class action scenes! The video features the battle scene from the trailer along with some artwork for Xeno Ridley:

The tune is supposed to sound both robotic and epic. For this purpose, it includes the Serris battle theme from Metroid Fusion and quite naturally Ridley’s theme. It’s one of the newest songs for this series and perhaps also one of my best yet. If you like it, there’s quite a bit more like that on the OST page!

As for our voting, it looks like Suwa Foughten Field (Kanako’s theme) is going to make it. I’ll look into the ones which got a lot of votes as well, I’m actually rather interested in Strawberry Crisis!! and it seems quite a few people wanted to hear Eternal Shrine Maiden and Tank Girl’s Dream (and Bad Apple!!, but that was quite obvious anyway), so that’s a thing. Too bad Dimension of Reverie didn’t get that many votes, I really like that theme~

Next time on OST focus, we’re switching to another animated series by VanishingSVST, this time for real: The Masters of Pokemon, Divine Entity. I’m also pretty much done with my thesis so far, so I can likely work on regular mixes again. You can expect the Touhou/Castlevania crossover featuring Rumia and some classical Belmont tunes next Sunday!
