OverClocked ReMix has taken on a number of ambitious projects over the years, including the official score for Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix. Two years ago, they released Voices of the Lifestream, which featured remixes and rearrangements of every single song from the Final Fantasy VII soundtrack. Now, it seems, they’re at it again.
