Deep taiko hits land at measured intervals while the shamisen cuts in with sharp phrases between them. The texture gradually thickens, stacking up tension as it climbs toward the decisive moment.
It fits samurai-drama style footage, showdown scenes in games, and the climax of Japan-themed videos. Length: about 3:08.
The overall volume was lowered slightly to prevent clipping.
