Double colored vinyl LP pressing in gatefold sleeve. Epic package design by artist Ryan Brinkerhoff, chock-full of premium trappings like: premium foil-stamped jacket; gold/silver foil inner sleeves; half-and-half color pokeball vinyl discs; and an epic gatefold illustration. In collaboration with our pals at Materia Collective and composer/arranger Braxton Burks, iam8bit is proud to present the Johto Legends, a one-hour orchestral arrangement album featuring the timeless music of Pokémon Gold and Silver! This pairing explores a young Pokémon Trainer's epic journey across the scenic Johto region - meeting Pokémon friends, going head-to-head with the nefarious Team Rocket, and encountering the legendary guardians of Johto - all told through a stunning musical narrative. Seven incredibly talented musicians with performance pedigrees including Pokémon Symphonic Evolutions and The Legend of Zelda: Symphony of the Goddesses - as well as game scores such as Destiny, Dragon Age, Tomb Raider and Minecraft - will bring this score to life.
