Across the Kosmos

Can you believe it, a post that is not a list and also
something actually new to the collection, in 2025!
I’m not a big fan of Kickstarter or pure Piano arrangements but when
there is one for Xenosaga I will be there, especially since they managed
to both get the license from Bandainamco and collaborate with
Procyon studio, not only to include that original Episode I soundtrack
(I love that you can still get it new)!

As for the items, I backed at the second highest tier to get them all
and it includes the newly arranged songs on two vinyls, the same on CD
plus a bonus disc with Jazz arrangements, the mentioned Episode I OST,
a piano score book if you want to play it yourself, a few art prints
including the signed one, and best of all the mystery box containing:

A music box that plays the ending theme Kokoro!
Such a great item and the best sounding music box I own for sure.
The envelope has the notes for the music box.
As if that wasn’t enough, this was included as a bonus:

Their previous work in the same style for Chrono Cross, again two vinyls and
a piano score book! Amazing!
Sadly I haven’t had/taken the time to listen to it all yet but I do look
forward to it soon and might update with impressions.
As for the items themselves I am very happy even if it did take a year
longer than expected as with every Kickstarter project, haha.

I will add them all separately to the main list and I do have another
big post that I should post soon…
If nothing else we are already closing in on the next list!
