Thanks for the kind words!

We're strictly bound by an NDA (non-disclosure agreement), so we can't talk about the details of our correspondence with Square Enix. What we CAN say is that the arrangement we came up with was fair & reasonable for everyone involved, something we're very very proud of. Large publishers do often get a bad rap for refusing to negotiate or bargain with fan creators, but in this case we actually came up with something that made everyone happy. We hope it will set a new precedent for future interactions with Square Enix and perhaps other big publishers as well.

Regarding the Slovak National Symphony Orchestra, Chad Seiter (the arranger of "Terra's Resolve") was just coming off working on a major Star Trek project and figured, "Hey, since we have the orchestra here and set up to record... let's do Terra!" If you're not familiar with Chad, he's worked on some of the very biggest films & TV shows, so the guy is an absolute pro.

Larry: Here's an alpha'ed list of in-progress albums that may or may not get finished.

QUESTION FOR FANS:

How did you discover OC ReMix? :-)

Thank you!

Most music services like iTunes, Pandora, Spotify (etc) involve revenue generation for the creators, which is not something we want to do and in the case of B&R, is outside of our agreement with S-E. Since we're non-profit & volunteer-run, we try to keep revenue out of things as much as possible :)
