Ryuichi Sakamoto has shared two new songs that he made for the new Netflix anime series Exception. Take a listen to “Opening for ‘Exception’” and “Oxygen” (an extended reprisal of the opening theme) below.

“I wanted to make the main theme a symphonic piece—the kind that has become a staple in science fiction since Star Wars,” Sakamoto said in a press statement. “As for the soundtrack as a whole, I worked towards keeping it darkly ambient, wanting it to feel like one piece of music rather than separated by scene. That said, I did include a degree of harsh sounds in the fighting scenes. Overall, I was able to make a soundtrack I like very much.”

Exception (Soundtrack From the Netflix Anime Series) is out October 14 via Milan Records. The show, written by Hirotaka Adachi (aka Otsuichi) and directed by Yuzo Sato, premeires on Netflix the same day.
