    With Kingdom Hearts III still a whiles away, we instead get some news for our ears as Yoko Shimomura (Main composer for the series) is relasing a new album. Entitled "memória!" it will feature many of her most famous works, including of course; Kingdom Hearts. This album will mark her 25th anniversary as a video game composer and will be made available in Japan on March 26th 2014, for 3,000 Yen.

      I can't wait to see what memorable tracks of her work in the series are included. And your welcome Krowley!

      I'm hoping some of the tracks she composed for FFXV will also appear--Somnus was on Drammatica so it's definitely possible. Thanks for sending it in~

      I actually didn't even consider those. O: Considering all the delays, it's entirely possible Yoko's built up quite a backlog of some tracks. Even if the ones that could be put on the CD are really old/not gonna be in XV, it'd be interesting to hear nonetheless.

      On the subject of FFXV, I really hope Somnus is in it, as will as the track that played in the FFXV gameplay trailer. Can't find a clean version of that music anywhere ;~;

      "Memória" came from "Memory". Such nice album name.

      No, you're not having problems. There's only previews of 1-8 for me too. Which really sucks because Track 9 "Pain the Universe" is ridiculously awesome.
