It’s the most wonderful time of the year! While you’re listening to our annual Christmas album featuring Scarlet Moon Artists and friends, we’ve compiled some physical game music goodies perfect for you or the game music enthusiast on your shopping list. Some of the larger items, like vinyl, can fit nicely under a tree, while the CDs make for excellent stocking stuffers. See the full list below!

#1: Prescription for Sleep: Shovel Knight Limited Edition CD
Scarlet Moon Records

We’ve recently re-acquired our physical inventory after the closure of Ship to Shore, and we’re pleased to make available this knightly collection of arrangements of Jake “virt” Kaufman’s expansive score to Shovel Knight. Spanning two discs and covering music from Shovel of Hope, Plague of Shadows, Specter of Torment, and King of Cards, along with an original composition inspired by the world of Shovel Knight titled “A New Hope,” GENTLE LOVE branches out into lively swinging jazz alongside the gentle lullabies you’ve grown accustomed to. Included are a sticker sheet and comics that were vetted through the Yacht Club Games team illustrated by Maximo Lorenzo, a 20-page booklet with an interview and track commentary, and silver foil print on the cover and spine.

#2: Prescription for Sleep: Celeste Limited Edition CD
Scarlet Moon Records

We were proud to collaborate directly with composer Lena Raine on this collection of music from Celeste. It featured GENTLE LOVE and guest artist maiko on violin, bringing a gentler and more intimate sound of the GENTLE LOVE soundscape. We worked with Lena on track selection and direction to the artists, as well as on applying subtitles to the two halves of the popular song, “Resurrections.” For “In the Mirror,” we even reversed GENTLE LOVE’s recording and recorded live violin over the top to replicate the original track’s approach. Also included is a sticker sheet and comics by Maximo Lorenzo, a 20-page booklet with an interview and track commentary, and pink foil print on the cover.

Graphic designer Connary Fagen created the pixel art featured on the cover. This is a must-have for any JRPG fan.
