“I became aware of Celeste due to the buzz surrounding Lena’s soundtrack, and even though I wasn’t very good at the game, I stuck through it to the end, in large part because of the music” explains Scarlet Moon Records producer Jayson Napolitano.
“I knew the game’s themes of self-discovery and self-acceptance would align perfectly with what Hibino-san is trying to accomplish with his music, and we had a blast creating this volume and polling fans to include their pick. If you like the ‘Scattered and Lost’ arrangement, you have Lena’s Twitter fans to thank for it! We hope you enjoy it.”

01. Resurrections ~ Dream
02. Resurrections ~ Escape
