"Akosmismus" ties to "終ノ空" (End of the Sky), referencing earlier works. "空気力学少女と少年の詩" (Aerodynamics Girl and Boy's Poem) appears in multiple versions including Piano Vocal. Erik Satie arrangements of "夢見る魚" and "ピカデリー" bring classical avant-garde into the mix.
The intellectual density is staggering. If you want a VN soundtrack that assumes you've read philosophy and can appreciate Satie, Melody Cocoon rewards that preparation.
