Man... This OST is just in another league. Susumu Hirasawa literally created this "Paprika feeling". I think there are really few films that can do that.
i swear this mans music goes beyond simple sountrack music. theres an absolute mastery to his craft. what he's able to accomplish with the combination of his composition ability and his production capabilities in sound design and use of electronic music is honestly genius. it's composition at its most classic sense and electronic production in perfect unison and i fucking love it. only fitting that a genius artist like him was paired with a fellow genius in satoshi kon.
"For Kon, 'fiction' and 'reality' are not opposing concepts, but both are homogeneous in the sense that they are both 'painted things,' and the only thing that separates the two is 'what is drawn there."
I believe it's to reflect on the repetitive nature of dreams, as they may be different each time, but often repeat certain things from previous dreams.
What makes it so great is that all 4 are different enough that I think each is quite worthy of a separate listen. It also really shows the versatility of music. One set of notes can be intense, calm, hype, or...uh, I guess also hype but now with more vocals.
This world deserved to see what more Satoshi Kon could do with his talent and passion for animated films. It is very sad we could only experience it so much, but at least we have what he left behind to remember him for a long time. Hope you are doing great up there my guy.
But did we deserve it? :) I understand though, we would have valued his work very intently. He will inevitably live on in his works and in those he inspires and those inspired by them.
I remember about a year ago, I had a college class with this movie for film study, and I fell in love with the music and I used to play the Paprika soundtrack all the time. About a month later, I bought a onewheel, and I used to love riding it around my campus late at night when there was nobody else around. Some great memories.
Good grief. Susumu Hirasawa is up there with Vangelis, Tomita, Tangerine Dream and Mort Garson as a composer of some of the most beautiful music I've heard. This is just gorgeous in every way!
This man's work was more futuristic than any anime out there. The way he animated was beyond the scopes!!! I truly hope to some day surpass him and wow the world as well.
I really adore how this whole soundtracks works with the same assets and creates so different emotional constructs around it, which the movies knows to use. hirasawa is such a great artist in using this redundance.
I know what you mean. Something else worth experiencing that also feels heavenly is a video titled "Jacob Collier - The Audience Choir (Live at O2 Academy Brixton, London)" How a room full of random voices can sound so angelic is both beguiling and transcendental.
the music and visuals played off each other so well in this film. i had no idea what to expect going into Paprika, but the opening credit sequence and music assured me i was in for something fantastic!!
How have you not seen it yet?! Watch it! Buy it and watch it! I'm not sure if it's Satoshi Kon's greatest work, but it's definitely one of the best examples of his works. Perfect Blue is probably my favorite film of his; my fiancee bought me a DVD copy to replace my VHS and then watched it with me that night - and she doesn't like anime. A week or so later we watched Tokyo Godfathers, which I had on DVD; I fell asleep because I was tired, but she watched the entire film and liked it (said she even cried at times). I need to get a copy of Millennium Actress and make her watch that -- another beautiful Kon movie. I made her watch Paranoia Agent over 3 days; I never tire of that show. "Magnetic Rose" from the film Memories was the best segment of that film thanks in no small part to Kon's involvement. His short "O-ha-yo" from Ani*kuri 15 is so pointless (like most of the commercial shorts), but it has so much of Kon's charm and creativity crammed into it; I tear up every time I watch it because it was the last thing he completed before he died. I also have his manga "Tropic of the Sea", "Dream Fossil", and "Opus". Yeah, I'm a huge fan of Satoshi Kon's writing and directing. He's also one of the reasons I like Susumu Hirasawa so much, since Satoshi Kon commissioned Hirasawa for Paprika, Paranoia Agent, and Millennium Actress. He was slated to work on Dreaming Machine (which seemed to have died with Kon...). He also had music for the BERSERK anime and game. A few of my favorite songs of his were on the Detonator Orgun soundtrack. If you like this track, you should listen to Hirasawa's work for "The Lost Legend", a theme park spectacle.
Tokita Kohsaku (stuck in the elevator): Chiba? I'm in a bind. Chiba Atsuko: I can see that. (wrenches Tokita out of the elevator nearly crushing herself in the process) Tokita Kohsaku: It's not that! Sorry. Chiba Atsuko: You're such a slob. Tokita Kohsaku: I know. Chiba Atsuko: You're fat, slow and sloppy. It's not the outside that counts, but there's a limit to that too. Tokita Kohsaku: Yeah. Chiba Atsuko: To think, a food disposal like you is the genius of the century. Tokita Kohsaku: I swallow everything. Chiba Atsuko: I know. You're so much fun. OP's note: Sometimes saying how you really feel about someone you care about could really solve so many problems! Atsuko brought back Tokita back from the brink by confessing her love for him in their shared dream/memory.
this sounds like the remembrances of your sweet childhood flying through your mind, while you are 80 years old already and lying in the bed. waiting for your death.
Just watched paprika for the first time in 2023 going in completely blind I was very surprised and happy after watching this not the greatest however an absolute killer in the surreal aspect, and the music is so amazing
@@onelunchman6979 been busying with semester this week, n finally free today so what’s wrong with the late reply🧐🧐 still listening to Susumu Hirasawa’s pieces everyday on the music app tho, ya have any problems??
I hate to be the one to bring aesthetics into this but... Dear people who make those Frutiger Aero playlists on RUclips: Consider adding this song to your next one. It feels so light, calming and optimistic which, (at least in my opinion) captures the whole Frutiger Aero vibe perfectly :)
when I heard this I remembered a piece of music I heard in a drama called her private life it was called water drops ... both sound identical somehow even tho they different pieces but I get this heavenly feeling when I hear em. I found out about this movie yesterday or to be exact I started watching director satoshi kon Works starting with perfect blue it was incredible. IDK why didn't I find em sooner TT
reminds me of the time I played Little Big Planet as a kid. The cover image is also an influence in that thinking, but I do feel like this song and the feeling of wonder I got whenever I was playing LBP as a kid, both live in the same place in my brain.
wym? the ending was happy spoilers below the fat dude and chiba got married and konakawa still talks with paprika (i assume that's the case because of how he went on that site to enter the dream(?)) and they stopped the reality-dream conversion without any considerable loss on their side, if anything, they gained more than lost, plus, konakawa got over his trauma, if you would call that trauma
@@nisshie5409How do you know nobody else died in the chaos of the city? It turned to rumbles. Also many people became empty shells and eventually got sucked up, meaning they also vanished from this world.
Ew. You're totally dating yourself. You're def older than 30... enya is 1990s.... this movie's music was not influenced by her or her music in the least.
I know Perfect Blue is escentially the Best film of Satoshi Kon. And i agree with this... But in the objetive opinion. Because in my subjective opinion, Paprika is His Best movie ever Made.

If I'm being honest...I watched Paprika because I heard this soundtrack in the trailer....
I am here for the exact same reason, and I am yet to watch Paprika. I think I will now definitely be watching it ❤
Same... but cus i heard parade song. Watched it and Paprika is now one of my faves.
Millennium actress is good, but in this one the good thing is the soundtrack
Sounds like very high quality wake up alarm song
Gonna set it as my alarm clock now 👾
The Android ringtone "Comely" was supposedly pulled from this track. It sounds extremely similar at the very least
it suits the vibe of the movie!
A Drop Filled With Memories, Meditation Field, Chaser, and The Girl in Byakkoya are all different variations of the same song and vocals.
Duh. Way to state the obvious.

this music actually made me cry...shit...oh man this man has created something so beautiful...:'))
went thru the comments to see if i was the only one :'-)
Glad it's not just me.
Absolutely 🙂
Closing your eyes while letting this music embrace your soul... it's simply surreal. Such a superb experience. Wow.
This man's work was more futuristic than any anime out there. The way he animated was beyond the scopes!!!
I truly hope to some day surpass him and wow the world as well.

My top fave from the whole soundtrack. Reminds me of my days when I was a preteen.
Weren't those the days?
i love the soundtrack of this movie, it's so.......magic.
Love the subtle symbolism with the fold going through her face there, I see what you did there ;)

this sounds like the remembrances of your sweet childhood flying through your mind, while you are 80 years old already and lying in the bed. waiting for your death.
it's the part where she says "yoiya naze ni mugen ho bihai~" for me
I honestly cried while listening to this ...
Quoi dire de plus ...incroyablement magnifique😍
When Konakawa meets Chiba for the first time.
But I love how the whole time this song is playing the main focus of the scene is on Kosaku expressing his dream
Just watched paprika for the first time in 2023 going in completely blind I was very surprised and happy after watching this not the greatest however an absolute killer in the surreal aspect, and the music is so amazing
