Ethnic, but not too ethnic. Powerful yet subtle. I wonder why he hasn't done any more (by in large)?
He did provide a soundtrack for a documentary "Toyo's Camera" earlier this year, which contains some original music along with other music reused from his earlier albums:
cf. http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B001RPAY8A/classicfromthesi
If you know his idiom and style from over the years, this one does sound like, well, more of the same. (Although I'm not quite sure I'd call it "ethnic, but not too ethnic" - that just about makes as much sense as, oh, "pregnant, but not too pregnant"...)

I love, love, love this score both in and out of the movie. It's huge, epic, sweeping, beautiful, moving, and it was very effective in the movie.

I too enjoyed "Heaven and Earth".
My personal favourite "Soundtrack moment" from Kitaro will always be "Seiun" - featured in the animated movie "Queen Millennia", but also (and to greater effect) in "Manhunter".
Not that I'm biased or anything....

finally got around to picking this up...
this is one of those "one score, one track" soundtracks
"The Land" is just terrific. Works great in the film too!
check it out!

Too much Junkie XS today, that's the problem

A pity Kitaro didn't do more Hollywood scores. Kudos to Oliver Stone for hiring him.
