Remixing the original East West Mountain theme in their exceptional style, One Way or Another provides a lyrical perspective on Aine's thoughts. East West Mountain (Act 2), Edo Bushido - One Way or AnotherĮdo Bushido can't be stopped. Percussively grounded in the mid-90's, this track uses Western orchestration techniques (string writing, band instrumentation, Wah guitar lines) with a distinctly Japanese blend (Rock shakuhachi lead, quartal writing, traditional Eastern ornamentation and instruments).ĥ.

Groovy with a very worldly feel, traditional African and Asian percussive instruments help to ground this track with an accessible-yet-unique atmosphere.Ī mountain equally covered by traditional Japanese imagery (oni, shrines, a very Mount-Fuji aesthetic) and Western fusion (American construction, graffiti, and enemies) deserved a track with callbacks to both styles. Solos are credited to Trevor Alan Gomes, Yousef Mousavi, and Jess Destramp, respectively. Featuring the steady patter groove of David Gibson McLean's drum performance, Tournament Arc presents a thoroughly-chill atmosphere, helping to relax you for the light drizzle present in Shellwood Forest's second act. Our second offering is Tournament Arc's Latin Jazz reinterpretation of the Sherwood Forest theme. ![]() Shellwood Forest (Act 2), Tournament Arc - Make Way For Me Her hopeful demeanor in the face of darkness is represented here by the violin.Ģ.
