From Kino’s Journey. This is the song that is played in episode 4 when the young Kino is having a conversation with the older Kino while he is repairing Hermes. A person called Eilon spliced multiple parts of the song together from multiple episodes to create this, as an official soundtrack was never released. I had a hard time finding it, so I figured I would take the liberty of uploading it here in case anyone else had trouble finding it. It’s a great song, after all, and I highly recommend the anime to anyone who has not watched it yet.

  1. I sometimes wonder about the people who have never witnessed this art piece, or read the books.

    Are they like the people who live their lives in the cities, and never leave?
    Or do they find their paths elsewhere, not opened to the possibilities by something else?

    Whatever it is, this song is beautiful.

  2. There are no words to describe how much I absolutely love Kino's Journey. I was so inspired by her that I actually chose "Kino" as my Confirmation name. :]

  3. I lay in a bed of multi color leaves the gentle breeze fondles my hair I relax with the sounds of birds over my head before I head out just beyond the mountains to see what lies in wait for me

  4. If I’m not mistaken, I think the time signature alternates between 6/4 & 5/4 almost every measure. With the first measure being in 6/4. Gives it a very unique rhythm, no?

    I believe the annotation may be something like 6/4 + 5/4. Source: I’m a former band kid.

  5. まだ聞いている人はいるのだろうか…
    個人的にすごい落ち着ける曲だからこのまま目立たないのは悲しい
