Throughout the 90s, Yuji Ohno's Lupin scores were rife with overblown synthesizers that made all the music sound "canned." But with this album, he began phasing the synth out, starting a renaissance for Lupin music reminiscent of his earliest years with the franchise. The synthesizers are still here, but rather than dominating the music they complement it as they should. Standouts include: Track 1, a Lupin theme in English. As a native English speaker, I wince a bit at the singer's accent, but it's not that bad on this track (the end theme is a different matter however...). Track 2, JFK Memories: A medium-paced action piece with a strong bassline. Track 4, Getaway: A fast action theme that you can't help but be engrossed in. Track 7, Heavy Chase: A slower action theme that incorperaetes bits of "Getaway". Track 8, Material Love: A full-length varation of Goemon's theme, "Zantetsuken"! There hadn't been one of these in years, and there hasn't been since. Track 9, Zenigata is Searching: Starts as a synth-heavy suspense theme, but becomes a fast, jazzy version of Zenigata's March. Track 11, Criminal Investigation: A slow, relaxing tune that works in bits of "Love Squall" to great effect.
