358 days ago, Project Destati first appeared on the scene through their introductory EP "Awakening", a 5-track album that served as the basis of their goal to reimagine the brilliant compositions created by Kingdom Hearts series composer Yoko Shimomura as a way to honor & give new life to her work. Now begins a new chapter in their ongoing musical project called LIGHT, the first of three full-length albums based on music from the Kingdom Hearts series!

LIGHT contains 22 beautifully orchestrated tracks featuring iconic songs from Kingdom Hearts, Kingdom Hearts II, Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep, and Kingdom Hearts 3D [Dream Drop Distance] and each piece is sure to leave you breathless. The magical and fantastical nature of LIGHT will easily sweep you away into your favorite memories of Kingdom Hearts as every piece begins to evoke a powerful feeling from within you. From the majestic rendition of "Riku" to the ever-whimsical "Working Together", Kristin Naigus, David Russell, & Sebastian Wolff have created a gorgeous start to an epic musical journey that effortlessly memorializes the timeless compositions created by Yoko Shimomura.

Holy moly! D: From the preview samples, these remixes sound amazing! I like that they went with the flute for Roxas' theme.

Oh man, I kinda forgot about this.

"Hollow Bastion" and "Rage Awakened" sound pretty great. Of course, "Dearly Beloved" is basically perfect no matter how it's performed.

Interested to see what they have in store for the rest of the project.

I read that as three five eight days ago. Nomura does that to people.

Anyways, I had never heard of this project and gave their Awakening EP a listen on Soundcloud. Very impressive!

I've been wanting orchestrated music to play towards my wife's tummy since she's 5 months pregnant and we both love Kingdom Hearts so I think I may have just found it Great compilation guys

Oh my gosh, this is so beautiful......So, I think we know who's remixing future soundtracks....And if they don't, Square Enix would be crazy to not use them for something. Especially "Destiny Islands" and "Traverse Town".

I have always been so passionate about these songs. They hit me right in the heart every time and I love it. Can't wait to play all these on repeat.

It's so brilliant hearing some of these tunes which haven't even been touched before. Makes me even more anxious to listen to the 2.5 re-orchestrated OST :D
