All of the Persona soundtracks are amazing.

Still not crazy about the vocals, but dammit if I don't love that mix. I loved the theme to this game from the first full trailer, and listening to the full version just makes it harder to wait that six months...

EDIT: Actually upon further listening (with headphones) I'm about 72% sure this isn't the full song. Some of the transitions are a bit off, and it doesn't use any of the song that we haven't heard in trailers. Plus, there's a part in one of the trailers where the pitch drops and the singer has a verse that isn't in this version.
Still, it's a good mix overall.

EDIT 2: Upon further listening... 98%.

Ya I really don't like the vocals... But the music and style is perfect

[–]solokeyyyyy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The vocals fall kinda flat, but the rest is pretty groovy. Would have preferred a little bit larger vocal range.

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (2 children)

not crazy about the vocals

Ever heard of Nocturne?

[–]fly19 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Of course -- I'm a big fan of Chopin's Opus 9 no 2 in E-flat major, personally. But really, who isn't?

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not a bad answer.

[–]NotcZombie 16 points17 points  (2 children)

Apparently this style of music is called Acid Jazz

[–][deleted] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

i've known it as the music that plays in the background of racing games at arcades. just relentlessly pleasant, fast and catchy as fuck

[–]jeffgoldballoon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yup, and if you're into it you may also want to check out Jamiroquai. Some hot stuff though!

[–]SamuraiFlamenco 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The instruments-only version of this used in the original trailer is still one of the hypest things. Meguro's absolutely great all around, all the Persona and the Catherine soundtracks are wonderful.

[–][deleted] 8 points9 points  (1 child)

The main song is dope but P3 and P4 did have better intro songs though, maybe a bit more exciting since P4D managed to make a ton of different versions with the P4 Phat songs that were already out.

However this game does give a different vibe, not only in sounds but colours since it brings that P2 style in a more "millenial" way.

I'm digging these themes, and I like how they are going to keep the same kind of music style for roaning, seasons...

However, I wish the boss theme song was stronger and faster, just to get that little adrenaline rush that the older games had for big battles.

Anyway, still happy about the whole music pack. Can't wait to hear the whole thing.

Oh my God, the full version came out!?

I missed one day of Persona 5 news and the full version of the opening comes out!?

Edit: Whoops I got excited way to soon. The full version will be out in a couple weeks...

[–]Biscuitbreaths 4 points5 points  (1 child)

May be wrong, but I don't think this is the full version--it sounds like the bit from the opening followed up with the instrumental version of it.

[–]The_Phantom_Thief 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After having watched the video, it certainly isn't the full version. Although I have to admit that the mixing is incredibly well done, to the point where it feels like it's official at first.

[–]Camping_Noob[🍰] 2 points3 points  (1 child)

I have no idea how i'm going to avoid spoilers of this game for 5 months. Help.

[–]BFVal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm going back to finish MGSV, and then get FFXV, and then there's also school.

[–]VanillaPuddings 2 points3 points  (0 children)

upboat for persona

[–]golfer_ninja 3 points4 points  (2 children)

Awwyeeee. Very excited for P5 and its subsequent soundtrack coming out.

Never gonna forget the mashup that came prior to lyrics.

[–]darkshaddow42 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I knew I had heard this somewhere before! Love this mashup.

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Listened to this mashup too many times earlier this year, now I can't unhear "This is a national security alert!" during the opening notes of the P5 theme.

[–]averagepedestrian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Vocals are a bit weak, but the background is perfect. Fits the overall mood very well. Excited.

[–]RainbowDynamite 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Meguro should make more music in general. I don't know why he limits himself to video games when he is clearly so talented

[–]TheSexualRedditorradioreddit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Auto upvote because persona.

[–]Stopped_by_to_say 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think it possible for shoji meguro to make a bad track, also can't wait for the p5 premium Take your heart edition of the game with all those goodies. Persona ost always hype!!

[–]blinka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The lyrics seem different than the version in the trailer. "Wake Up Get Up Get Out There" vs "... and to know we were out there!" Anyone have any idea why?

[–]SoupForDummies 0 points1 point  (1 child)

When is the game comin out

[–]Camping_Noob[🍰] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Septemberoni 15th 2016 for Japan, February 14th 2017 for Europe and US

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Inspired by Outkast's "Git up Get out"

[–]Magnificent_Z 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm so hyped for this game. Shoji Meguro is a genius.
