"With this new entry in the ROR franchise I was given the opportunity to explore musical territories at the fringes of what I've written so far. The album includes some of the most elaborate & heavy music ever written for the games (introducing the 7-string guitar among other things), but also some of the most emotional (including a piece written from the perspective of Petrichor V's inhabitants). I'm deeply thankful for the invaluable contributions by George Karayannis whose guitar mastery is so otherworldly that has allowed him to directly channel my mind onto his fretboard. I'm also beyond delighted to invite my friend Stavros Markonis into this sonic universe. He has managed the impossible by writing a piece that at the same time fits like a glove but also brings an exciting new sound to the franchise! I hope you all enjoy this new music for which we all have worked harder than ever to deliver." – Chris Christodoulou
