SEATTLE - July 31, 2019 - Materia Collective has released EIDOLON: Music From Final Fantasy IX, a 63-track arrangement project paying homage to Nobuo Uematsu's iconic soundtrack. EIDOLON features everything from a big band jazz version of "The Final Battle" and a rock opera take on "Roses of May" to a renaissance-themed arrangement of "A Place to Call Home" and a riveting musical-style rendition of "I Want to Be Your Canary," and so much more. Contributing artists include the Triforce Quartet, Videri String Quartet, and StringPlayerGamer, videogame composers John Robert Matz (For the King), and Robby Duguay (Fossil Hunters), and many others. The album is licensed and available wherever digital music is sold:

"We thought the next Final Fantasy cover album from Materia Collective was long overdue, and we both have a big love for the Final Fantasy IX soundtrack," comment album producers Emily McMillan and Joe Chen. "As the game focuses so much on character development and connections, we wanted to celebrate those ideas with a theme of collaboration. Each track on EIDOLON is the work of multiple Materia Collective artists working together to develop their interpretations of the classic music of Final Fantasy IX."
