notes: 'I''m super honored that I was asked by Teh to work on the soundtrack for Spectrum
  of Hybrids. I''m especially excited to have been able to write and record some vocal
  tracks for a video game soundtrack, particularly one being developed by an old friend.
  I''m excited that I was able to combine my love for genres such as jangle pop and
  prog rock into a single album of music. I even managed to squeeze a low whistle
  in there.

  My inner musicologist maintains that songs must contain the human voice as an instrument,
  and I feel like it is so rare to be able to put the word "songs" in the title of
  an album of video game music. To be fair, only the first five tracks are indeed
  songs, but as they are the focus of this release, I felt it would be appropriate
  to exclude a clarifying phrase such as "and some incidental music" for simplicity''s
  sake. Moreover, I feel like this album''s designation of "songs" will also highlight
  the fact that there is another part of the soundtrack composed by Bismii.

  Speaking of the human voice, I''m very happy to once again be recording with singer
  Darby Cupit who sings the lead vocal parts on Microsecond of Mayhem and I Am Worth
  It. As these are songs that are sung by in-game characters, it was only appropriate
  to include another singer on this album for variety. As both a singer and a voice
  actor, Darby brings a real sense of life and energy to both of these songs. I am
  grateful to have Darby in my life as both a collaborator and a friend. Thank you
  again for recording for this project!

  I sincerely hope that you enjoy this soundtrack, and I look forward to releasing
  Part 2 of this album in the future as the story and characters of Spectrum of Hybrids
  evolve.

  Teh has this to say about Spectrum of Hybrids: "Spectrum of Hybrids is a labor of
  love that has been ongoing for five years, changing and adapting to its final form
  as a detailed Visual Novel. It would not be possible without the talents of several
  wonderful artists both visual and musical, nor without the input from its fans.
  Audio is just as big a part of the game as visuals are, and every effort is made
  to match the music with the moods, scenes, and characters. Thank you for your support!"
