Rayman arrange album (by original composer) now on Kickstarter
Update: added video message, to be found below!
***
Rémi Gazel is the one who composed the soundtrack for the very first Rayman game. If you like his work, you will be glad to learn he has launched a Kickstarter for a Rayman arrange album, featuring Jazz/Rock/Electro/Symphonic arrangements. The best part? He actually got the greenlight from Ubisoft, via a licencing agreement. In other words: no risk of the whole project being canceled due to Ubisoft’s lawyers.
Rémi Gazel needs at least 50 000€ to make this project a reality, and as of writing, 9 029€ have already been pledged. With 50 000€, the album will include Jazz / Rock arrangements of the following 12 tracks:
- Pink Plant Woods – Dream forest
- Blazing Brass – Mr Sax
- Eat at Joe’s – Lurking in the Darkness
- Entering the Cavern – Crystal Palace
- Moskito – Hold on tight
- Mr Skops – Never wake a sleeping scorpion
- Candy Chateau – Creepy Clowns
- The Magician Challenge – The Wizard
- Cloak of Darkness – Mr Dark
- Once More – Continue / Replay Theme
- Partie at Joe’s – Credits Theme
- End of the Line – Game Over Theme
Here’s some excerpts of live recordings:
With 115 000€, the Pixelophonia Orchestra will join the project, with at least 7 new tracks (this time featuring orchestral arrangements). And with 140 000€, it’s 6 electro arrangements that will be added to the project.
Finally, here’s a video message for the project:
