o_O Varese releasing in CD the score of Yooka-Laylee? That's new. Like.. okay, it's not the first time they do it, they did release Abzu, but.. Yooka Laylee is a bit.. "more" mainstream and almost doesn't seem like a fitting for them! o.o I do guess that if they picked it up, it's because the final score is really bombazzling in terms of orchestral renditions.. that's exciting

Wow! Didn't see that one coming either! But... I'm in!

Coming a bit late with some corrections... Laced got an exclusive license for this OST so likely Varèse is manufacturing (US release), Universal is distributing. The same as the other Laced releases.

It seems like the game is being released without the orchestral versions of the music. Which is leading me to wonder if the soundtrack being released is going to be synth demos, assuming they just didn't have time to either start or finish the recordings. Very odd situation. All the samples I've heard so far are clearly synthesized.

Speaking of the orchestra, was it ever confirmed it'll be The City of Prague Philharmonic? While I do get the logic, not much info about it. There's this about Wise giving a hint, anything other than that?
Anyhow, wasn't one of their KS stretch goals specifically for the live orchestra? Strange to drop it. |

So.. does that confirm that, indeed, there was a live orchestral recording of the soundtrack.. but it will be released as a separate orchestral soundtrack, and not part of the game?
Well, I don't mind it. Nor the wait. As long as I still get some more YK goodness in orchestra somewhere. <3 |

It's all very strange. He recorded his music back in November but there hasn't been a single word about it in any of the Kickstarter updates.
Grant has been pretty silent about the matter on social media. |

Maybe they didn't want to get the actual orchestra music in the game because they thought it took off the 90s feel to it. I think that's dumb, I'd have loved to hear the orchestra version as I played the game, but eh. Since orchestra music was still a promised goal I guess they want to keep their promise and release an orchestral album.

Well, the soundtrack's up on Spotify and it sounds exactly like the samples did. Lots of synth. If the music's been recorded, why would they only release the demos on the official soundtrack? It's baffling to me.

Can't wait to hear the orchestral soundtrack! Hope they don't take too long, I'm having a listen to the synth soundtrack and it REALLY sounds like demos of something bigger and better! <3

Still, I wonder what got Varese interested in it, even for manufacturing - perhaps originally they signed in for what they thought would be a soundtrack of the game with live orchestra, and when they realized it was gonna be synth.. maybe they had signed on something and couldn't let go, but still had to distribute. Who knows, maybe Varese releases the orchestra version in the future. I mean, it's not the first time something like this happens. Abzu got a normal digital release, and Varese handled the rights for a CD release.

Well, Laced Records is Varèse's sister label, there's always that I guess. They said it outright at the time of No Man's Sky OST release:
https://www.facebook.com/varesesarab...175813/?type=3 Abzu was distinctively on Varèse's label though, that's quite right. Last edited by Efendija; Apr 8, 2017 at 11:23 AM. |

I had no idea about that! I wonder if that means the orchestral album will definitely be released by them.

Do we even know if there's going to be an orchestral album?

No, we don't. As for now it's all speculation. We have to wait and see.

Yeah, it's all speculation so far but I think it'd be a given.

Where did the catalog number for this release come from? I don't see it anywhere on my copy. The closest thing to a catalog number anywhere is a LMCD008 on the CD matrix.
