Shin Mazinger - The original soundtrack CD

Tomorrow, the original soundtrack for 真マジンガー衝撃!Z編 (True Mazinger Impact! Z chapter) will finally go on sale. There are two CD singles on sale already, one for the opening and another one for the ending of which you can find information on their previous entries.

Akira Miyagawa (宮川彬良), the soundtrack composer had a difficult task before him, as the soundtrack for the old Mazinger Z series, composed by master Michiaki Watanabe (渡辺宙明) and inspired by western movies, was one of its most loved elements.

Miyagawa lived up to the challenge as his compositions for the new series are excellent and perfectly match the theme and the tone of the images they accompany, be it in the 70s style rhythms that play when Koji flies his pilder or in the epic melodies that punctuate Mazinger's fights against the mechanical monsters.

The CD will be published by LANTIS at a 3000 yen price.
