Terra Magica: New Album in the works by Saori Kobayashi – Coming Soon

On July 3, 2015 Saori Kobayashi, known for her work on the Panzer Dragoon series and Crimson Dragon announced she had a new solo album coming out soon on the label.  The album will be titled TERRA MAGICA and she provides further details in the post:

I’m creating this new album to symbolize my gratitude to people all around the world who listen to my music.  TERRA MAGICA is the complete opposite of what I’ve been involved with in the past. For my solo album, the music takes precedence over any story or imagery, allowing listeners to visualize a world that only I have created. I hope to create an album whose music will inspire listeners and give them complete control over what they see in realm of their own imaginations.

New Label – The Generation Series

Brave Wave explains that The Generation Series is a new label that stands for definitive editions of legendary video game soundtracks. Some of them previously unreleased, incomplete, out of print, hard to find, or not preserved in the best possible quality. For the first time ever, we are releasing your favorite soundtracks in comprehensive collector’s editions: restored, remastered, often in unprecedented quality.  Their first release will be the soundtrack to Street Fighter II.

The soundtrack release will include new remasters of both CPS-1 and CPS-2 versions of the arcade game, extracted directly from the arcade boards and approved by original composer Yoko Shimomura.

Fans of physical media will be treated with a double album that features liner notes by Yoko Shimomura and Polygon.com writer Matt Leone. Additionally, and for the first time in the series history, we will present with Capcom a limited edition vinyl release, carefully and especially remastered in translucent colored vinyls, with art prints sourced from the Capcom archive.

Original Sound Version will keep you updated on these releases so stay tuned!
