“Forgotten“ from Midori (Shôjo Tsubaki) - Soundtrack Reconstruction
This is my attempt at doing a by ear rerecording of the song that plays during the finale of Hiroshi Harada’s 1992 underground classic, Midori. With the initial controversy Midori faced on release, it was said that the masters of the film’s soundtrack were destroyed along with most known 16mm prints. The score was written by J.A. Seazer, an artist who already gained a notable following in the art scene from his collaborations with Shūji Terayama and his Tenjo Sajiki troupe.
This technically isn’t the first time I attempted reconstructing Seazer’s soundtrack, before this I did a set of tracks in early 2017 based on the film’s score as part of my now defunct Vaulting School side-project. I was working in Garageband at the time (a software with a much smaller range in synthesizers), and the reconstruction of the ending theme especially took a blow from my limitations. My deconstruction of the track at the time was also inaccurate, I didn’t put as much time into it as I did the themes accompanying the mutation scene or the opening credits. With this new version I spent a morning to a late afternoon piecing things together note by note, seeing how the song was exactly written to get the closest reconstruction possible, this track was the final result. All the talk of accuracy aside, I couldn’t help but put a slight improvisation in the mix by the very end, as the track didn’t exactly conclude as much as it faded out with the scene.
Yes, I am slightly obsessed.
