So, are we just going to ignore the new music that was showcased in the video? Pretty exciting that they seem to have got it right.

Not sure about everybody else, but they're not exactly "new" tracks. To me, at least.

The first was one we've heard since the Kickstarter opened last year, as per Ziming's link. The second is a variation on the Shenhua's House (Day) theme (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G-ftslnyJcQ&list=PL3BC9A1C95E5D2EF4&index=32), and the third is unused Shenmue II music BlueMue uncovered last year (https://youtu.be/Pp6KnpKDD38?t=116)

Darude - Sandstorm.

Then he turned out the lights and handed out glowsticks and E.


I can totally picture Tetsuya Mizuguchi doing that.

Hehe, now Yu was talking to Ziming, our local expert for Shenmue music... :3

But yeah Yu said pretty well how music is supposed to work in games. Oh and his mentioning about sound effects.... let's hope he won't blow out a million again to record 200 different footstep sounds on different materials again... [-X

Looks like they've been careful to avoid potential information leaks by blurring the laptop screen & Yu's notes this time... must have gotten wise to those fans who zoom in on every image :D

True. Though you can see the reflection of the laptop screen in Yu's phone...

I will be massively amazed if anybody can even see anything in that reflection let alone make out words.

I dunno about you guys, but I would be more than OK if this was Bailu's FREE music.

I zoomed in on this but couldn't make out any details on the screen due to glare from the window. When I adjusted the light balance and increased the zoom on the glare I found a reflection in a window across the street, of a noticeboard visible through another window in the Ys Net office. After clearing up some of the JPEG artifacting around the handwriting, I was still having a hard time deciphering it because I couldn't read Japanese. So I learned Japanese only to find that Yu's scrawl is too messy for even an expert like myself to decode, until in desperation I ran it through an optical text-to-speech converter. Anyway, to cut a long story short and skip over some parts that might begin to sound farfetched, the note on the board, once translated from Klingon, reads "Hello Shenmue Dojo."
