Character themes and trial suites (mostly) from the Phoenix Arc of
the Ace Attorney series are given the swinging nightclub treatment on this release. Nothing here becomes too languid or self-indulgent, save the Steel Samurai theme which is slowed and stretched to the point of unrecognizability. Tigre and Godot’s, however, already existed well into the genre’s wheelhouse and excel for it. Unlike with
The Futurist, I have very specific emotional connections to each piece and the majority of the album moves with a purpose.
