The Complete Music to a Wonderful Series, 2006-04-10
Reviewer : Fatigue - See all my reviews

The music from Capcom?fs Breath of Fire series is a diverse and even, in Breath of Fire IV?fs case, cultural. Excluding Yoshino Aoki who worked on Breath of Fire III and Breath of Fire IV, each game has had a different composer, or composers, all who bring different styles to the series. With this newly released box set, published by Capcom?fs in-house publisher, Suleputer, all the music from each game has been packaged nicely onto 11 discs. I will briefly go into each individual score and explain what to expect:

Breath of Fire – Composers: Yasuaki Fujita, Yoko Shimomura, Minae Fujii, Mari Yamaguchi

Because no composer credits were released indicating which composer created which theme, we can only guess which talented composer created each individual theme. This is also the first time that a soundtrack for Breath of Fire was released, so this is a primary reason to buy this box set. The music for Breath of Fire is mostly epic music. There are quite a few tracks with piano runs fluttering over the chip tune orchestral music. This is how the series?f music started, so it?fs nice to have the origins on disc. The themes are quite short, most tracks lasting only over a minute or so, with not many tracks surpassing the two and a half minute mark, but what we get it quality, although short lived.

Breath of Fire II – Composer: Yuko Takehara

Compared to Breath of Fire, Yuko Takehara?fs music for the sequel seems a lot slower and, at times, uninteresting, but like the former game, the soundtrack has received a full release, unlike the one disc album which was available over 10 years ago. Musically, I?fd say it?fs more focused on stronger orchestral themes; sadly not all are impressive or interesting. But the sound quality is evidently superior to that of Breath of Fire, including stronger instrumental samples and less reverb from some of the featured instruments. Overall, Breath of Fire II did have a nice score, but I?fd say it?fs probably preferable to the people who have played the game.

Breath of Fire III – Composers: Akari Kaida, Yoshino Aoki

The first Breath of Fire title available for PlayStation took the most drastic turn musically. The series?f well established orchestral and epic had been replaced by a strong Jazz influence (with even a touch of fusion and rock). This was the first time Yoshino Aoki had contributed on a Breath of Fire game. Unfortunately, like the first Breath of Fire, no individual credits were released. It was good to see the score have a three disc release, which is a vast improvement over the mildly mediocre one disc CD album published by First Smile almost 10 years ago. The music is undeniably selective to the listener; some will love it and others will find it boring. Personally, this was a superior score to the other previous two scores for the Super Nintendo, not only because Aoki and Kaida brought new, fresh and inspired ideas, but because both composers weren?ft afraid to try something new.

Breath of Fire IV – Composer: Yoshino Aoki

Yoshino Aoki returns to compose the next entry in the saga solo (well, almost). The music is yet again another different turn for the series, Aoki attempting to add in a Middle Eastern flavor, although not without some thoughtfully composed orchestral beauties. The opening theme, ?gBreath of Fire IV ~Opening Animation~?h is composed by Taro Iwashiro (best known from Romancing SaGa 3 – Windy Tale and Onimusha 2), and is by far the most enjoyable theme on the soundtrack (yes, it truly is, contrary to Aoki?fs themes). The vocal theme, ?gA Little After the Dream?h is also quite nice, much more tolerable than ?gPure Again ~Staff Roll~?h from Breath of Fire III, with nice acoustic instrumentals and even a bonus male rendition of the melody if you wait a minute after the song ends.

Breath of Fire V: Dragon Quarter – Composer: Hitoshi Sakimoto

The latest entry to the Breath of Fire series is composed by none other than Hitoshi Sakimoto, the man behind such games as Final Fantasy Tactics, Ogre Battle and the upcoming Final Fantasy XII. Originally, Breath of Fire V was meant to be the responsibility of Yasunori Mitsuda, but he could not take on such a task because of a busy schedule, so he asked Sakimoto to fill in for him, while Mitsuda would take on the sound production of the game. Sakimoto agreeably adapts his own style into the score but also, as close as possible, takes it back to roots of the series with epic orchestral music. But this was also the first time in a number of years that the composer asserted his electronica side, and Sakimoto does not hold back (as tracks like ?gElectricity Supply Building?h show). Artist Chihiro Onitsuka also contributes a vocal theme, and while feeling totally out of place, it?fs certainly not a bad vocal theme.

So there you have it. The breakdown of the music from all Breath of Fire games. If you do decide to purchase this box set, be sure to place your order soon, as only 2,000 copies were printed. It?fs great music overall and would be a shame to miss out, considering there are many bonus features in this box set (complete soundtracks, composer comments, and excellent packaging) that can?ft be found anywhere else.
