“The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time”. Koji Kondo’s melodies evoke adventure and nostalgia; the vinyl release features beautiful illustrations.
“Final Fantasy VII.” Nobuo Uematsu’s sweeping score includes themes like “Aerith’s Theme” and “One‑Winged Angel,” perfect for an evening listen.
“Journey.” Austin Wintory’s Grammy‑nominated soundtrack is atmospheric and emotional. The vinyl pressing includes art that reflects the game’s visual style.
“Chrono Trigger.” This JRPG classic boasts one of gaming’s most beloved soundtracks. The vinyl edition features remastered tracks and an insert with composer commentary.
“Celeste.” Lena Raine’s electronic and piano compositions capture the game’s challenging yet hopeful spirit.
