About the Audio Drama "Inescapable Rain in Yoshiwara"
(from gaiaonline post, see translation section)
"This CD contains horror stories produced by the voice works of Teiyu Ichiryusai, who is the leading storyteller of horror stories. He has been recognized as an important intangible cultural asset and a living national treasure in Japan in 2002. The contents of stories in this CD are written about closed spaces such as a room,a secret chamber, and a darkroom which are related to the theme of Silent Hill."
"Moreover, the background music, which effects his storytelling and strikes audiences’ horror, is produced by Akira Yamaoka. The correspondence between his voices and the music produce unique sound and style which is so-called “Kyou-dan” (It means storytelling with reverberate voice). The following 12 titles of each chapter of the story mean Japanese pitch names in the principle of traditional Japanese music"

About the Music from "Inescapable Rain in Yoshiwara"
The music from this audio drama is either unaccompanied from narration, comes with narration but can also be found on other discs, or comes with narration and can not be found elsewhere.
Both Yoshiwara and Born From a Wish projects had the purpose of isolating the music from the dialogue with editing and track reconstruction.
Unfortunately there were still a handful of ambient tracks throughout the disc that could not be isolated because of lack of usable material.
