#DEVIL MAY CRY 1 SOUNDTRACK DOWNLOAD FULL#
"Temptation" is a very electronica heavy composition, full of organ cues and fantastic beats. It features two battle themes, one for when you encounter its tentacles and one for when you encounter the demon itself. The next battle I'll mention is rather interesting one. It's a slower, intense battle theme that gets the job done. The vocalist is rather grungy as well, more so than in Dante's battle theme. It has a very grunge rock flavor to it, with only slight accents of electronica. "Sworn Through Swords" plays when you first encounter Berial, a fire demon. However, the best battle themes are definitely reserved for those action packed boss battles. Out of the two, I prefer Nero's, but Dante's is equally as entertaining. It's an exhilarating piece with heavy techno influences. While the grungy vocal style is still kept intact, there is barely any rock influence at all in the piece given the nature of the original. Not to mention, the rhythm of the entire piece is rather exhilarating! The normal battle theme for Dante is "Lock and Load -Blackened Angel Mix-" and definitely takes a different approach than Nero's battle theme. The vocalist is almost grungy in style, and it works well with the rock and electronica base that plays underneath. The regular battle theme for the new protagonist, Nero, is called "The Time Has Come." When I first heard this on the special soundtrack, I was a bit put off by the vocals however, I must say that as time passed and I played the game, I fell in love with them. Many of the battle themes in the game feature a very industrial rock/electronica base. Fortunately, this translates extremely well when it comes to the games battle themes as they fade out, the battle theme intensifies and all hell breaks loose. Many of the themes focus on industrial sound effects in conjunction with low strings and none really stand out on their own. As such, it's really hard to appreciate many of these pieces on their own. For the most part, many of the area themes are very ambient in nature. Many of the game's dungeon themes are extremely fitting for the game. It's a very fitting accompaniment to the cutscene it is portrayed in, and while it does lose a little bit out of context, it's still quite nice. This is by far the most interesting portion of this track, but unfortunately, it doesn't last too long. The instrumentation becomes lusher and as it starts to fade away towards the end, electronica mixed with the chorus and orchestration becomes the forefront. The chorus becomes more epic and the hints of electronica can finally start to be heard. As the scene intensifies, so does the music.
Starting off, it's a rather ambient piece of music consisting of some low string and choral work, it quickly evolves into an organ-led melody, befitting of the church scene depicted. Continuing on with the scenes, "Genocide" is the piece that really fuses together styles found on the soundtrack. Overall, this is an emotional opening and is, in my opinion, the best opening theme in the series, albeit an uncharacteristic one. The accompaniment to her beautiful voice is, of course, a traditional string-led composition with some choral layering, adding an ethereal beauty to the instrumentation. Aubrey Ashburn does a fantastic job at exuding a very raw emotional power from her voice, in an almost operatic style. Now that the tone is set, the song itself is quite stunning. Imagine, if you will, a vocal performance in a church, but at the same time, one of the protagonists, Nero, is running down the street slaying monsters left and right, as he rushes to make it to the church in time. To open the review, as well as the game, "Out of Darkness" plays during the opening sequence of the game. Does it live up to the music featured in the previous games? You'll just have to read on to find out. Composed by a plethora of Capcom and T's Music composers, whose works range from Resident Evil 4 to Sengoku Basara, it continues the trademark sound of combining electronica with both rock elements and orchestral elements. The Devil May Cry 4 Original Soundtrack is the latest for Capcom's popular Devil May Cry series.
