From Chuck None: ""A lot of things happened on this album that weren’t initially intended, such as adding a vocal outro to Zelda’s Lullaby (voiced by Nekoshima) or adding a swing section to Kirby’s Dreamland because I randomly got into swing/big band music while working on it. All of the band sections, guitar, and basslines on the album were all played by me and done from scratch – my favorite section to write was the MEGALOVANIA rhythm riff which is now one of my favorite riffs to play on my guitar."
Thank you to everyone at Firaga and Materia for helping me make this happen – it had been a dream of mine for a long time. Thank you to my friends, family and supporters for listening!
Cheers,
Chuck
