Jam of the Day: Those Who Bear Their Name by ACE+ (Xenoblade Original Soundtrack)
I forgot to share Xenoblade.
I actually purchased the Xenoblade soundtrack shortly before starting this blog. It was Yoko Shimomura’s involvement that sold me on it. To my surprise, though, most of my favorite tracks ended up being by artists I was not familiar with. More often than not, these tracks were by ACE+ (ACE being the collaborative efforts between Tomori Kudo and CHiCO with the “+” referring to Kenji Hiramatsu)
There’s a lot to love in the Xenoblade soundtrack. “Those Who Bear Their Name” only represents one of styles you’ll find, that being a heavy rock sound. The album also has a big focus on live string and vocal performance. It’s not a soundtrack to be missed!
