notes: 'Available through SUPERDELUXE GAMES, the first batch of albums were signed
  by Yuzo Koshiro himself.

  Notes from Parent Album:

  "Yuzo Koshiro, one of the most influential chiptune game composers of all time,
  is teaming up with Limited Run Games to create a new arranged soundtrack for The
  Scheme, a 2D side-scrolling action game originally released for the PC-88 in Japan
  in 1988 and one of the earliest games Koshiro composed for.

  Long regarded as one of his most respected hidden gems, Koshiro revisits The Scheme
  for the first time in over three decades, applying the latest compositional techniques
  and technology while staying true to the iconic, punchy sound the original game
  is known for. Koshiro revisits all 19 tracks*, mixing authentic PC-88 audio with
  modern synths to produce a 21st-century revival.

  For the album cover art, Koshiro and Limited Run have teamed up with renowned Japanese
  illustrator Ken Sugimori, known for his work on the Pokémon franchise, to create
  a new and vibrant visual piece that captures the game’s dark, cavernous worlds.

  ©℗ 2023 Ancient corp. Published digitally by Brave Wave Productions on behalf of
  Ancient corp. and Limited Run Games."

  * This does not include tracks from the original OPN soundtrack, nor unused tracks
  that are present on YUZO KOSHIRO EARLY COLLECTION BOX Disc 3 [B2PS-1010-3] or were
  not composed by Koshiro.
