First time posting in this section of the shrine, but as it's video game music this is where I find myself. I'm aware of the irony in presenting this 16bit classic in 24bit audio, but it's the way I've always done my vinyl transfers, so if you feel the bandwidth is unnecessary given the source material, please feel free to downsample with Foobar / Weiss Saracon or any other sample rate converter of your choice.

"Collaborating once again with legendary composer Yuzo Koshiro, Data Discs is thrilled to present one of the most revered and timeless soundtracks of the 16bit era: The Revenge of Shinobi. Composed in 1989, the music for the Mega Drive game (known as The Super Shinobi in Japan) blended Western dance music with Japanese overtones, to create something truly unlike anything else before. The soundtrack was Koshiro’s first commissioned work for SEGA and served as a forerunner to his seminal Streets of Rage trilogy, where the concepts and styles he founded with Shinobi would be expanded upon to astonishing effect. Koshiro’s work on The Revenge of Shinobi remains a testament to the ingenuity of early game composers who, when given enough creative freedom, found the means of drawing new and unexpected sounds from extremely limited hardware.

The Revenge of Shinobi is presented as a 180g LP, cut at 45rpm and packaged in a 425sgm outer sleeve, with heavyweight inner sleeve and double-sided lithographic print, featuring original artwork sourced from the SEGA archives in Japan. The release also includes exclusive liner notes written by Koshiro himself."

I would love SOR II. I also have the Data Disc vinyl for Golden Axe, Streets of Rage I and recently Altered Beast. I'm just hoping the Strider gets a release. My favourite game music of all time.

Sure thing. I have Golden Axe, but only have Golden Axe I (Side A) converted to FLAC. I haven't yet ripped (or even played) Altered Beast yet
