This is certainly an interesting remix album in the sense that it’s jazz. Most of the time, popular game music is remixed into techno or orchetral forms. In the case of Gyakuten Saiban (Phoenix Wright), those albums exist as well. Before I diverge more than I usually do, here’s the review coming right at ya.

It’s refreshing to hear this kind of remix. Most of the recognizable character and court themes are here. The songs are very heavy on saxophone, trumpet, piano, and double bass. If I wasn’t familiar with this music, it could probably pass in a real lounge without a second thought. I think all of the songs are good, but the best one is Godot’s theme which was already a jazzy piece to begin with. Now you didn’t hear this from me, but you can obtain the album here.

Rating: I know jazz isn’t for everyone but give it a try. You just might like it. It’s a very well done compilation. 8/10
