Listening notes

Released in 2022 on iam8bit (catalog number 8BIT-8164), the Persona 3 Vinyl Soundtrack collects music composed by Shoji Meguro and the Atlus Sound Team across a four-LP box set. The release spans eight sides and 56 tracks, ranging from brief transitional cues under a minute in length to more substantial pieces exceeding five minutes.

The tracklist reflects the breadth of the original score. Side A opens with "Burn My Dread" at 1:36 before moving into "Aria of the Soul," one of the set's longer individual tracks at 5:38. The listing spans ambient pieces, battle themes, and location cues, among them "Mass Destruction," "Iwatodai Dorm," "Paulownia Mall," and several entries in the recurring "Tartarus" series that run across sides B through G. The final side closes with "Memories of You," the set's longest track at 6:09, preceded by "Burn My Dread -Last Battle-" at 3:48.

The genres listed for the release include hip hop, pop, soundtrack, stage and screen, and video game music, reflecting the stylistic range present across the original game's score.

At 56 tracks distributed across four records and eight sides, the set is a comprehensive survey of the Persona 3 source material.
