Hey Sherkel, funny you post this… I was very recently thinking of making a similar topic… but asking for the sources instead.

Anyway, I tried back in 2011 to figure out the samples of some BTW tracks and this is what I came up with…

DJ Rx – Hellfire (Betwixt & Between remix)

全ての始まりは、あの日見た奇妙な夢でした。
(It all began with the bizarre dream I had that day.)

__________

Betwixt & Between – Liberation

無駄な殺生をしたな。
(Unnecessary killing.)

俗にいう自爆テロなんかは、自らの未来に一筋の希望も持てなくなった時に起こす最終手段なんです。
(Such things as what’s commonly called as a suicide terrorism are a last resort they use only when they can’t even find a thread of hope in their future.)

だから彼らには、自発的に自立を促していく必要があるんです。
(Therefore, it’s necessary that we promote their voluntary independence.)

解放という名の自由を与えてね。
([By] Giving them freedom under the name of liberation.)

__________

Betwixt & Between – Self Extortion
*I really want the source to this.*

何が変わったっていうの
(What has changed?)

気にしているのはあなただけよ
(You’re the only one who is concerned [about it])

あなたの周りにいる人間も、次第にあなたを忘れてくわ
(The people around you will gradually forget about you)

あなたも早くその身体に馴染むことね
(You’d better get used to that body quick)

そうすれば、やがて全てが、ただ静かに、過ぎていくわ・・・
(That way everything will just flow away silently in time…)

______________

GULD Vs Betwixt & Between – HATRAL (unreleased version)

この時をどれだけ待っていたと思う…パパやママ…私からの…

“How long do you think I’ve waited for this time(/moment)? …(It’s?) from (my?) Papa and Mama… and me…”
/
“How long do you think I’ve waited for this time(/moment)? …Papa and Mama… It’s from me…”

*??? very fragmentary. really need more context for this.

HASE – Galatea
(source: “MPD Psycho – Sound Story” drama CD)
Somebody uploaded it to Youtube last year
The part that was sampled can be heard starting at around 32:30

何もかも終わったら、私はどこにいるんだろう。雨が、世界を溶かしてしまえばいいのに。
(I wonder where I will be once everything is over. I wish the world would dissolve in the rain.)

soして私は、海とも陸ともつかない場所に、一人沈んで、魚に指を、髪を、胸の先を、皮膚の表面の柔らかい部分を、噛まれ続ける。光がさして、魂の泳ぐ水が分かれて、誰かが私の元に近づいてくる
(And then I will, at a place that cannot be connected with either the ocean or the shore, be alone and sink into depression; my fingers, hair, and the front of my chest – the soft parts of the outside of my skin – I will feed them to the fish. The light shines, and the water in which my soul swims begins to part. Somebody approaches closer to me…)

[At this point the girl seems to be talking to herself in the audio…]

「あなたは、誰？」
“Who are you?”

「愛してる」
“I love you.”

「私を、全て、愛してる？私は、あなたが嫌い」
“You love everything about me? I don’t like you”

「この世界の全てが嫌い」
“I hate everything about this world”

「だって、私を受け入れてくれないことを、知っているから。嫌い、嫌い」
“Because I realize things will not accept me. I hate [them], I hate [them]”

「殺してやる」
“I’ll kill you”

「死んでしまえばいいのにね、あんたなんか。私以外の生きてるもの全てが、皆不幸になればいい」
“[I] want to die, what about you?* It would be great if every living thing besides me became miserable.”
*I’m not sure how that could be written, so that is a guess on my part.

My Japanese is not that great… so please correct where ever needed.

Thank you.

Hello world!

My name is Solvynt and I’m from the USA. I’m a long time lurker here and a huge fan of the darker/emotional side of Freeform. I also occasionally do mixes.

I first got into this sound back in late 2008 or so after discovering some Betwixt & Between tracks (Disturbed Mind, 4321) on Excalibur Vol.1 and the Khaotic Dimension CD. Sometime after that I came across “Yamanote no Oto” and “NRG Monogatari 1&2” via this site while searching Google for more on BTW… which then exposed me to FINRG and the rest of the scene. So… thanks a lot for that. 🙂

Other genres I’m into are: Ambient, 170/Grey Area (atmospheric~techno-ish music written in 85-170BPM) and some trance.

As for the question in the OP, my favorite intro would have to be “Tigris” by Alek Száhala.
