RR5 had this futuristic, subtly sexy vibe with its UI and presentation. Songs like this certainly added to that aesthetic. Fitting for a launch title for the PS2.
I hope Bandai Namco contracts some other electronica artists to work on their next _Ridge Racer_ game. I for one would love to hear some exclusive Daft Punk tracks in a future game in the series.
@@emperorofthereiwaera3583: Well, for me, it was just wishful thinking when I made my comment so long ago. At the very least, I'm still holding out for _Ridge Racer 8_ .
Thanks for the info. For what it's worth, this really does sound professionally made. To me, the soundtracks to the Ridge Racer games is so-so, but "Junx" and "Junx Engine" from the Ridge Racer 5 OST were some of my favorite tracks.
GT is much more consistent in its musical atmosphere, at least the Japanese versions are. If Namco Gakudan could just steer OKUBO to the right music direction, we could get another RR4 OST.
@@grumblekin I love Ridge Racer (especially R4) maybe more than most people but I don't see why we need another R4 OST. That energy, budget and time should be put into a new project for a new Ridge Racer. And what is "Namco Gakudan"?? Don't recall Namco or Bandai Namco 楽団 for any of their Sound Teams in relation to Ridge Racer/R:Racing Evolution.
