Shinji's Walkman (I don't know the exact term in English, but I already know
it's a rare cassette player that didn't take off except in Japan), but what
I'm interested is the music he is listening on it. (More specifically, the
cassette have 26 tracks, and a duration of around 1h30 if I trust my memory of
the appearance of the player). I've re-watched NGE and the RoE:1.01, and the
music have a great importance on Shinji's development, but we do not hear
enough for any app to recognize it, and the name don't seems to be revealed in
the credits.

Did the name of the cassette/compilation/music Shinji is listening to revealed
in the show, a interview or any other "official" source?

What is playing on Shinji's walkman?


Take a look at this cut from [Episode
4](http://wiki.evageeks.org/FGC:Episode_04_Scene_02a#cut_04_037) (via the
official storyboards), and also the [Shinji Ikari character
page](https://wiki.evageeks.org/Shinji_Ikari#Notes) notes that the two songs
that play are:

> The two songs usually played on Shinji's SDAT are: Track 25 for "You are the
> only one" and Track 26 for "Blue Legend", respectively. The songs are from
> "Lilia from Ys", an image album for the "Ys" RPG series. The Vocalist is
> Kotono Mitsuishi, Misato's seiyu. However, Episode 02 has two Eva BGM pieces
> playing, while Episode 23 has a different vocal song for Track 25 instead.
