			   							Asian soundtracks (Help needed)
			   							
			   							Dear all,  
 
I'm in need of a bit of help here. A very close friend of mine loves nothing more then listening to asian soundtracks. One of her favourite soundtracks is the one from "The Myth" and she has a definite bias towards any kind of japanese and asian sounds. 
 
Could you advise me on some titles she'd love? I'm looking for a birthday present and a good soundtrack sounds just about right :)   
 
Thanks in advance

			   							oh my... there are sooo many beautiful asian scores! 
 
I would suggest: 
- Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon 
- Musa (which is impossible to find these days) 
- Ying Xiong (Hero) 
- Casshern (2 Disc edition) 
 
- all music from the movies by Studio Ghibli 
 
- music by composers: Shiro Sagisu, Joe Hisaishi, Taro Iwashiro, Ryichi Sakamoto, Tan Dun
