Brave Wave releasing the Art of Fighting Soundtrack on CD and vinyl.

Brave Wave is tackling NEO-GEO soundtracks next and it looks like the first one will be Art of Fighting. I just re-visited the game because I honestly couldn’t remember a single tune from the soundtrack because its buried over a ton of loud sound effects. Even after completing the game again, I’m still not completely sold on if I want the soundtrack to this in collection. I’ll have to give it a better listen soon.

Brave Wave Announces ART OF FIGHTING The Definitive Soundtrack for CD and Vinyl!

SNK AND BRAVE WAVE ANNOUNCE EXCITING NEW PARTNERSHIP FOR CREATING CLASSIC NEOGEO SOUNDTRACK RESTORATIONS, STARTING WITH ART OF FIGHTING SERIES 25TH ANNIVERSARY CD AND VINYL RELEASES

SNK and Brave Wave Productions are proud to announce that they have entered into a partnership for releasing classic NEOGEO soundtracks on CD and vinyl. This multi-year endeavor begins with Generation Series 005: ART OF FIGHTING, Generation Series 00X: ART OF FIGHTING 2 and Generation Series 00X: THE PATH OF THE WARRIOR: ART OF FIGHTING 3. First released in 1992, the ART OF FIGHTING series celebrates its 25th Anniversary this year in 2017. SNK and Brave Wave are eager to introduce the classic fighting game franchise to a new generation of gamers.

As part of Brave Wave’s critically acclaimed Generation Series lineup of classic video game soundtracks, the ART OF FIGHTING soundtracks will feature each games’ original music restored to the highest possible quality, in collaboration and consultation with SNK and the original composers of NEO Sound Orchestra. The CD and vinyl will feature artwork from the SNK archives by the legendary illustrator Shinkiro, in addition to thorough liner notes with insight on the production of ART OF FIGHTING.

ART OF FIGHTING The Definitive Soundtrack will release for CD and vinyl in October 2017, followed by ART OF FIGHTING 2 The Definitive Soundtrack and THE PATH OF THE WARRIOR: ART OF FIGHTING 3 The Definitive Soundtrack in the first half of 2018.

SNK and Brave Wave hope to expand this collaboration to other major NEOGEO franchises beyond ART OF FIGHTING starting in 2018. NEOGEO fans can expect many of their favorite classic soundtracks to make their way to CD and vinyl in new and unprecedented quality, under the same award-winning team at Brave Wave who previously worked on the Billboard-charted Street Fighter II The Definitive Soundtrack and the two-volume Ninja Gaiden The Definitive Soundtrack.
