Three more tracks from the MapleStory Symphony in Budapest have been released! They include Ereb’s theme, The Raindrop Flower, the main theme of the Black Heaven blockbuster, The Black Heaven, and a new track from the upcoming 4th area of Arcane River, Arcana, called The Tune of the Azure Light!

Bringing to mind a flower growing in the rain, this song is filled with a freshness and eager energy that will have you powerless to resist tapping your feet.
This joyful melody possesses unparalleled charm as it pairs a bouncy beat with classical sensibilities in an unexpectedly fitting union. This melody is a triumph of hard work and loving care, given special significance through the work of Byung Ho Kwon, Korea’s renowned and foremost woodwind performer.

This is the main theme of Black Heaven, MapleStory’s first Blockbuster. This subtle yet elegant tune is a unity of strings, woodwinds and brass. It is a moving journey from a place of calm beauty to one of immense gravity and power.

The only completely new song in this album, “The Tune of Azure” sings of the Arcane River’s newest area – The Mystical Forest of Arcana.
The song opens with a mystical melody that brings to mind the image of bashful spirits whizzing about in a dense and magnificent forest.
This wonderful sentiment is conveyed through a unity of woodwinds and strings in the song’s first half, and heavy, imposing sounds towards its end.
