      I return to this comment every now and then. I live in front of the atlantic ocean. As thebclouds rise above the ocean and get the sunset pinkiah color, i listen to this wonserful piece of art, it takes me far away, to a magic world, beyond the clouds.

    It's from Nobunaga's Ambition - Legend of the Supreme Ruler [ Nobunaga no Yabou - Haōden 信長の野望 覇王伝] The Nobunaga games have some of her best early work.

    "You can tell that it's Yoko Kanno. I'm not sure how to explain it, but if you're a big fan of her, you just know."
    Yep :)

      foreeaal. Like in any animation, you can distinguish between either Kanno or Sawano. I don't know how either.

      @@noneedtoknowme I believe in Sawano's case it's a whole lot easier.
      Don't get me wrong, since I first heard his music in Blue Exorcist, I have been one of his biggest fans, but he has a lot of trademark elements that always make it clear that it's him
      (whether it's the use of female vocals for his more epic songs, the way he employs a piano in his sadder more quiet pieces or in general how he structures his osts for epic moments so that the
      sound fades out for a short moment of silence to be succeeded by loud solo vocals and following
      accompaniment.)
      His last few soundtracks have predominantly featured big orchestral epics with swelling strings and powering drum beats, synths etc.
      Therefore I do find his recent stuff is much easier to recognize than his earlier work.

      Sawano really does elevate the series he's a part of!

    Pretty sure part of it is the unique way she employs jazz chords to any kind of music (very evident in this track). The way she does it gives a certain unmistakable warmth to all her pieces.

    The way she makes jazz progressions / melodies seem fitting in all kinds of music is unique... although I've been trying to do the same even before hearing her music, so maybe I'll get there one day.

    gotta love how Yoko Kanno-san can turn a simple OST into a super emotional track (although it doesn't mean to be that way, right off the bat! XD). I recognized her work since I listened to Card Captor Sakura OST and got the exact same feeling.
    Man, she sure is a living legend.
