The first single from Netflix’s upcoming live action adaptation of the best-selling manga in history, ONE PIECE has just released. Available everywhere now, “WEALTH FAME POWER,” is the main theme from Billboard chart-topping artists, composers, songwriters, and music producers Sonya Belousova & Giona Ostinelli (The Witcher). The acclaimed composers of the viral sensation “Toss A Coin to Your Witcher” are set to make waves once again as they continue to create unforgettable music for captivating stories and push barriers in the epic fantasy action-adventure genre whilst retaining their trademark expansive sound. Together they composed the original score to ONE PIECE as well as wrote & produced the original songs. Today’s track is the first listen of the eventual soundtrack, which will release alongside the series on Thursday, August 31
SONYA BELOUSOVA & GIONA OSTINELLI note, “Wealth Fame Power!” – Gold Roger the legendary dreaded Pirate King, obtained this and everything else the world has to offer. His dying words drove countless souls to the seas in search of his buried treasure. There’re many shared similarities between Gold Rogerand the Straw Hat’s captain, Monkey D Luffy, their personalities and character traits absolutely match up, so are their music themes. Monkey D Luffy’s theme is the main theme of our show. Gold Roger’s theme is Luffy’s theme reversed. “Wealth Fame Power” opens up with Roger’s theme. It’s powerful, just like Roger himself, driving, and dynamic. It’s a dark, mighty anthem featuring the iconic “musical Jolly Roger” – hurdy-gurdy. As soon as the swords are drawn and the crowd rushes out in search of ONE PIECE, we reverse Roger’s theme and introduce Luffy’s theme, the main theme of our show. Roger’s theme is all about the descending motion since this is the end of the journey for Roger. Luffy’s theme, however, is all about the ascending motion since it’s the beginning of his exciting adventure toward becoming the King of the Pirates.”
