Where to get Anime Soundtracks?

Laplace SG

Anyone know where I can purchase anime soundtracks here in Singapore? I'm looking for Kenji Kawai's WXIII Patlabor soundtrack.

I went to the What!Comics webpage and it was available for purchase over the net. But I'm not sure if they would be importing it for the buyer or do they have it in store.

well.. u can try purchasing from hmv.. saw it very long ago.. wasn't interested in patlabor afterall..

Thanks for the reply. But imported stuff from HMV are pretty expensive. The GITS OST was selling for like $54.90.

What!comics has a online-shopping website. But User interface is pretty weird. I have my doubts that the pre-paid disc will make it to my house given the weird addess lines.

bootlegs have died from a massive attack from Japan Music Industries.

if you're looking for bootlegged osts... it's pretty hard.

Bootlegs were the best. I got so many different soundtracks for between $14 - $17, and the quality was good too. Too bad they are so hard to find now.

I think I will check out the internet for that OST's CD production code and get HMV to import one for me. I have a $50 voucher anyway.

bootlegs are dead... all dead. the ones that were left were leftover stock..
