  A note from James:

  WHAT''S UP!!!! Thanks for checking out the JAMES PRIMATE MEGA QUAD VIDEOGAME MUSIC
  BUNDLE XL!! I''m MEGA QUAD psyched to have this opportunity with GameChops to show
  you all some of the awesome projects that I''ve been working on over the past year
  or so, and finally release one of my favorite soundtracks to date: Abrickadabra!
  Monsignor Cutman has asked me to write a bit about the tunes and games to set some
  context for this 31-track beast of a release, and I would love to do so! So here
  we go...

  Abrickadabra! is a fast-paced, pixel-style action game that cleverly blends the
  style of brick-breakers like araknoid with an RPG storyline and item/leveling system.
  You play as a wizard in hot pursuit of an evil mage that has destroyed your village
  and, as they often do, kidnapped your girlfriend. For the soundtrack, developer
  Brian Gogol asked me to produce something with a classic retro videogame feel, and
  I was more than happy to bust out the gameboy and set to work. I wanted to the harken
  back to the soaring arpeggios and funky riffs of the "Golden Era" Commodore 64 adventure
  games, and, of course, the epic bombast of RPGs like Final Fantasy and Shining Force.

  Junk Jack was one of the first commercial projects I worked and is STILL a favorite.
  Its cute, 2d minecraft-inspired gameplay and constant content updates from the dedicated
  PixBits team has made it a huge success and I am very happy to have had the opportunity
  to work on it! The Art of Junk Jack is whimsical and has a polished, almost "Super
  Mario World"-ish look to it, so much of the title music reflects that upbeat sound-world
  (I think some of you listeners will probably catch the references I made to SMW),
  but in playing the game... there is a certain loneliness to it. You play as Jack,
  a lone miner forging the things he needs to survive in a huge unknown world. Much
  like the Dwarves in the Mines of Moria, you dig deep into the darkness and occasionally
  uncover some scary stuff... so, I wanted some of the music to reflect feelings of
  both loneliness and "the unknown" as well.

  LiquidSketch is, in my opinion, a work of art. The developer Tobias Nuekom developed
  it from the ground up around a never-before used algorithm for liquid physics modeling.
  It is a beautiful, intelligent and devilishly hard puzzle game and I wanted to create
  music that was up to that level. As the game is entirely based around the properties
  of liquids, the soundtrack is evocative of water: flowing, dripping, bubbling, pooling,
  and has a kind of elemental "eternal" quality, while still (hopefully) remaining
  playful enough to keep the mood positive.

  Tangled was an interesting case in that it was already a super-successful game before
  I got involved: it was one of the original puzzle games on the iOS platform, and
  even had a sequel out already! Code West studios was looking to make the original
  Tangled into its flagship game, and to do so required a complete overhaul with totally
  new graphics and soundtrack. Similar in a way to LiquidSketch, the puzzle stages
  of Tangled are all elemental in nature: Planets, Rocks, Ocean, Fields, etc., so
  the looped tunes all reference the atmosphere of these locations, while keeping
  a kind up driving, beat-focused "puzzle-solving" mood. You can see I like thinking
  about all this stuff, haha!

  All songs written, produced and mastered by James Primate.

  NOTE: Also available in digital format.'
