MANA (Secret of Mana Recreated) 2XLP

The artwork from Hiroo Isono alone is worth the price, and the new cover design fits the album's dreamy vibe perfectly. I've spun it three times already and the recreation captures the soundtrack's magic in a way that feels fresh but faithful.

The gatefold art from Hiroo Isono alone is worth the price, but the pressing itself is dead quiet and the bass hits way harder than I expected from a recreation. Spun side A twice in a row before I could even open the liner notes.

The vinyl sounds incredible, with the new arrangements really bringing that classic soundtrack to life in a fresh way. I was especially impressed by the licensed artwork from Hiroo Isono, which looks gorgeous on the large gatefold jacket.
