EPOCH: A Tribute to Chrono Trigger on all Storefronts
“Chrono Trigger is one of our favorite games of all time, so there was no question in our minds that we wanted to pay tribute to its beloved music,” commented EPOCH producers Jeff Brenneman and Daniel Romberger.
“When crafting our vision for EPOCH, we thought a lot about how the characters in the game combine their skills to create unique and powerful tech combos.
We wanted to honor this spirit of teamwork by encouraging musicians of different skill sets and backgrounds to band together in a similar fashion in order to make each performance one-of-a-kind.
Everyone put a tremendous amount of work and love into this album, and we are proud to present our take on this timeless soundtrack.”
