Texhnolyze

by Jonathan Mays,
Title: Texhnolyze: Music Only Music But Music
Artists: Various
Label: Geneon Anime Music

Release Date: 2004-06-08

Description:

In the futuristic, decaying city of Lukuss, getting 'texhnolyzed' is a sign of status, even if it means losing one's humanity and sanity. However, with TEXHNOLYZE - MUSIC ONLY MUSIC BUT MUSIC, there's no after-effects to worry about, except for a compelling desire to listen repeatedly to the imaginative, hauntingly beautiful scores that thoroughly permeate the nightmarish world found in the new anime series TEXHNOLYZE.

In between the techno opening theme (Guardian Angel) by the techno trance wizards of JUNO REACTOR and the contrastingly lush and tragically romantic song, 'when reason fails,' there are 22 additional, impressive instrumentals contributed by music industry greats Hajime Mizoguchi (Jin-Roh, RahXephon), Koji Kasamatsu (Serial Experiments Lain), Tsuneo Imahori (Trigun), Keishi Urata (Akira) and others.
