Welcome to Kaso-Machi, a cursed town on the Japanese coast. As you drive around the town meeting a bizarre cast of locals, mascots and heroes, you can enjoy the wonderful music of composers Alpha Chrome Yayo and Ryo Koike. Their soundtracks are released separately but they're likewise essential for fans of the game. Don't miss out to pick up both! Lead composer Alpha Chrome Yayo has crafted an eclectic mix of music, from 1970's influenced crime thriller tracks, to upbeat music of friendship and triumph, to haunting urban legend inspired ambience. There's also screaming heavy metal to play as you rage against the injustices of a 9-5 job! Alpha Chrome Yayo shares his admiration for the game and the soundtrack he created for it: "I loved cooking up music for the game. Hot jazz fusion sits right next to koto terror, wild metal belters and Showa-style mystery. I used just about every weird old synthesizer and traditional Japanese instrument that I own, and I don't think anywhere else sounds quite like this place. I hope you enjoy your time in it as much as I have."[info sheet from distr.]
