Donkey Kong Country 2 is a complex beast, but with talent such as David Wise, the original composer, on board as well as well-known names like Jake Kaufman, Prince of Darkness, Sixto, Joshua Morse, Zyko and many other talented remixers, there’s no reason to think they can’t succeed in doing a great album.īut projects often fall into the same potholes in that the project leaders and musicians lose track of what they’re actually doing, as we’ve seen many times projects such as Summoning of Spirits being 5 discs and seemingly having no general quality control or direction leaving the project to be a huge mess. We recently interviewed the project leaders for the newest OCR project, Serious Monkey Business, and talked about the participation of well-known names and newcomers, and also about the hurdles involved with these projects. OCR has for many years been a gathering point for most remix musicians in the videogame scene, and these projects always allow talent to come together to celebrate all these classic soundtracks. We’ll keep you posted as news of the album is released.įor many people, each time OCR announced a project, there is always a lot of excitement and buzz. Join us as we wish a Happy Anniversary to one of the greatest videogames ever created and celebrate one of gaming’s greatest composers, Yasunori Mitsuda!Ĭhronicles of Time is currently slated for a December release, with the preview being free to download (or throw some coin at, if you wish). In celebration of Chrono Trigger’s 20th anniversary in North America, we submit to you…a full 13-track preview of what’s to come! We’re still hard at work, but you can expect even more diversity than what Spectrum of Mana offered at the same level of quality. Said to be spanning five disks, a 13-track preview for the project has just dropped, “A Premonition”. This project, called Chronicles of Time, will feature an obscene amount of tracks from some of the biggest names in the video game music arrangement community, much like Spectrum. One is from the same people who created the Secret of Mana arrangement album back in 2013, Spectrum of Mana. This year marks the 20th anniversary of Chrono Trigger, and thus some announcements of arrangement music projects have surfaced.
