Yuki Kajiura Month is over - One Last Giveaway...

I proclaimed last month as the Yuki Kajiura Month, so it is with great sadness that I officially announce that the Yuki Kajiura month is now over... But fear not, I will be sure to keep you all updated on the latest Yuki Kajiura music... I hope you all enjoyed the Yuki Kajiura DVD Live Vol. 2 videos that I posted every day of last month (here).

As a parting gift, I chose to share with you one of the best non-anime project Yuki last did. Last year she did a collaboration with composer Revo from the Sound Horizon group, called Dream Port. They performed together at a series of live concerts, and a Collaboration Single was also released with the song Sajin no Kanata e which is the Main Theme of Dream Port and its instrumental version. The single also contains a DVD which includes a live performance of Sajin no Kanata e, at a Dream Port 2008 concert.

Tracklist:

1. Sajin no Kanata e
2. Sand Dream (Arranged instrumental version of Sajin no Kanata e)

Vocalists:

Yuki Kajiura, Revo, Yuri Kasahara, Yuriko Kaida, FictionJunction YUUKA / KEIKO / WAKANA / KAORI and all of Sound Horizon.

10/10 This is quite an amazing Yuki Kajiura song! I'm not familiar with any of Revo's work, but even though he did compose Sajin no Kanata e with Yuki, the song definitely sounds kajiuran to me. It reminds me of a lot of older songs she did with FictionJunction and for the Tsubasa Chronicles. I also really love the live version of the song. I've never seen so many amazing singers sharing a stage together. I love it that the song starts off with my uber-favorite Yuri Kasahara (too bad she had a really small part...). I also love the solo part with Yuki Kajiura and Revo singing... It was my first time hearing her voice, and I'm sure I've already heard it in a couple of songs she did. It's so exquisite... My main concern was that Yuuka didn't have any solo parts and the camera didn't really show her that much. Wakana and Kaori got to sing a lot, and they killed it as usual!

This is a must-see for any Kajiuran fans, so check out the live performance with the subs:
