This is supposed to be a sequel/fandisc of sorts why are the majority of the tracks so different, perhaps for the worst? It’s not that they suck, it’s just that it feels like such a huge change of tone and effort from the first couple slice-of-life tracks that it just feels like it doesn’t belong in a Fate novel. Unfortunately, the composers seem to rely on synth too much in the later tracks, and many of the following tracks feel borderline generic as a result. These themes don’t sound nearly as catchy as the majority of the slow themes from Fate/Stay Night, but there’s a bit more substance to them now that the composers have access to better tech. There are a few instruments added to make it sound a little different, though. Cool Wind follows a similar pattern, almost as if it is an extension of its immediate predecessor on the soundtrack. Using a variety of instruments from the violin to the piano to the tambourine, it creates a soothing, slow-paced song that perfectly captures the daily life of the first act. Reunion seems to focus on the slice-of-life tone of the initial parts of the story, only it sounds like the composers actually gave a crap instead of making it sound generic.
Back to the Night also creates a similar kind of ominous feel to it’s predecessor’s title screen theme, complete with the sound of rattling chains. It’s a fairly good opening theme, and it does have the kind of feel a Fate visual novel would have. The soundtrack opens with Ataraxia, a vocal song with ambient electronic beats, along with some violins and a piano for occasional variety.
FATE HOLLOW ATARAXIA OPENING SERIES
Many talented composers have worked on the Fate series since then, but none of them really stand out as much as Fate/Stay Night Realta Nua’s soundtrack.Īnd Hollow Ataraxia’s soundtrack isn’t going to change my mind anytime soon. When I first read Fate/Stay Night, I was captivated by how well the pieces fit into the scenes presented, and how a good majority of them stood out from outside the game. One of my favorite parts about the Fate series is the music.
