  Vampire Variations: Volume II

  Album freely available at http://ocremix.org

  Following the success of the first album in October 2011, Alexandre Mourey (Chernabogue)
  and KNGI.org are proud to present Vampire Variations: Volume II – a whole new tribute
  album to the Castlevania series, released on October 31, 2013.

  This new album focuses on two major games from Konami''s series: Rondo of Blood
  (PC Engine CD, 1993) and Bloodlines (Genesis, 1994), and on the music composed by
  akiropito, Keizo Nakamura, Tomoko Sano, Mikio Saito (Rondo of Blood), and Michiru
  Yamane (Bloodlines).

  But this time, we decided to put it to the next level: 2 albums, more than one and
  a half hours of music, more than 25 musicians and performers, and full album artwork.
  Everything was done by fans, for fans, to celebrate the games'' anniversary.

  The project''s musicians were asked to arrange the tracks the way they wanted to,
  and to create their own vision of the soundtracks. The project features several
  different genres, including orchestra, metal, funk, electronic music, and many others.
  In order to respect the work of the artists, no final mixing or mastering was applied
  to the project.

  The project''s artwork was created to bring the universe of Castlevania to life,
  but also to give Vampire Variations its own visual identity. Unlike the first project,
  different covers were designed for the second one to allow listeners to chose the
  one they prefer.

  I would like to thank all the people who made this happen, who trusted me, and who
  dedicated their work for the project. I truly hope you will enjoy this new musical
  experience, as much as I enjoyed directing this project. The Dark Lord is rising
  once again. Hold your crucifixes close. What an horrible night to be cursed once
  more...

  -Alexandre Mourey
