You may remember all the way back to 2008 when we featured an interview with Eminence founder and talented violin player Hiroaki Yura about his contributions to SOULCALIBUR IV.

With Yura’s establishment of the Creative Intelligence Artists (CIA), he’s managed to bring in Hiroki Kikuta, Inon Zur, Cris Velasco, Andrew Aversa (along with Jillian Aversa), and others to create what should be an impressive soundtrack which you can pre-order here.
