notes: 'The latest entry in our VGM Essentials series comes from electronic music
  producer and DJ BLOOD CODE. In this album, BLOOD CODE focuses his remixes on iconic
  underwater level themes such as “Aquatic Ambience” from Donkey Kong Country, “Hydrocity
  Zone” from Sonic Mania, “Water Temple” from The Legend of Zelda, and more. Featuring
  heavy-hitting collaborations from EDM juggernauts ZAXX, Haus of Panda, RoboRob,
  and Button Masher, “VGM Essentials: BLOOD CODE” is a must-listen for video game
  and EDM fans alike.

  "Creating this album has been an exhilarating dive into the depths of our gaming
  memories, especially those heart-racing, pulse-pounding moments spent navigating
  the treacherous waters of video game lore. Each track in this collection is a tribute
  to the anxiety-inducing, yet utterly captivating water levels that have both haunted
  and fascinated players for generations.

  Bringing this album to life was far from solitary. I was fortunate to collaborate
  with an incredibly talented group of artists and musicians, each bringing their
  own unique perspective and expertise to the table. I am endlessly grateful for their
  dedication, creativity, and their contributions were instrumental in shaping the
  final sound of the album, infusing it with a richness and depth that far exceeded
  my initial vision.

  I also want to extend my deepest thanks to Firaga Records for believing in this
  concept from the very start. Their support and enthusiasm for the project have been
  unwavering, providing me with the resources and freedom needed to explore my creative
  boundaries and bring this vision to life.

  This album is a celebration of the challenges and triumphs that come with facing
  our fears, both in the virtual world and beyond. It''s a reminder of the intense
  emotions that video games can evoke, and a tribute to the composers and developers
  who craft these memorable experiences. I am incredibly proud of what we have created
  together and I hope that listeners will find both nostalgia and new inspiration
  within these tracks."
