Oh, hi there. My name's Zen.
I make stuff using pixels, Game Boys and ancient spirit magick. I like to write about videogames, art, airships, bleeps, bloops and other swell things. I think we're going to get along just fine.

The good ol' folks at OverClocked ReMix are at it again, and this time they're paying tribute to one of the industry's greatest composers, Yasunori Mitsuda, with this fantastic re-envisioning of the music from the 1998 Squaresoft RPG classic, Xenogears. The album combines sweeping orchestral arrangements with driving electronic beats and features compositions by a plethora of profusely talented OverClocked artists, such as Geoffrey Taucer, LEVEL 99, Oinkness, Chipp Damage, Prophet of Mephisto and many more.
The release marks OverClocked ReMix's 15th album project, and can be downloaded for free from OCRemix.org -- And while you're there, check out some of OCRemix's other recent projects, like Final Fantasy IV's 'Echoes of Betrayal, Light of Redemption.'
I've never played a Xenogears game, but I fucking love the music of the series. Thanks for bringing this to my attention, I'll definitely be giving this a listen.
