the album was bundled with a game release on kickstarter.

it has printed on it 2015-11-10, but the game wasn't actually shipped to backers until march 2016.
2016-03-16 07654, 2016
kepstin notes that the original japanese verison of that release, https://musicbrainz.org/release/199c8b8b-20f6-4732-bb11-813970c98452 - which was also bundled in a limited edition version of the game - uses the game release date.

(i'm not sure what's actually printed on it, haven't seen album art for that version)

kepstin: assuming it's a physical release I'd go with the ship date.
2016-03-16 07658, 2016
hawke1
(and assuming it was shipped with the physical game)
2016-03-16 07621, 2016
kepstin
it was bundled in the physical game package, yeah
2016-03-16 07647, 2016
kepstin
shipping date... is actually hard to find
2016-03-16 07650, 2016
hawke1
That title hurts me though
2016-03-16 07652, 2016
kepstin
there's no single ship date
2016-03-16 07635, 2016

Is there no kickstarter update to say 'we're shipping'?
common term used in japanese for basically arranging a new recording based on the same underlying work.
2016-03-16 07647, 2016
kepstin
as opposed to remix, where samples from the original are normally used, this is completely new recordings.
2016-03-16 07650, 2016

I'm surprised I don't see more search results for that then.
2016-03-16 07659, 2016

Are they just uncommon?

heh, "This album was released as a bonus item, included with the limited edition first printing of the PC version of the game released on 28 April 2004 by Key Sounds Label bearing the catalog number KSLA-0010, though this was later corrected to KSLA-0011"
2016-03-16 07617, 2016
kepstin
mostly seen in the doijin music scene
2016-03-16 07631, 2016
kepstin
where people make arrange albums of songs from games, etc.
2016-03-16 07659, 2016
kepstin
this album is actually kind of inspired by that doijin scene arrange thing - they decided to make an official one as well

gotcha
2016-03-16 07640, 2016
kepstin
it really annoys me that the english version of this album uses the same catalogue number as the japanese one did
so i guess it must have been an unlisted bonus track on the japanese version as well
2016-03-16 07633, 2016
yeeeargh has quit
2016-03-16 07637, 2016

kepstin: Do you happen to know if they reissued/reprinted the KSLA-0011? or was it just corrected in their catalog?
2016-03-16 07634, 2016
hawke1
i.e. should that release be in MB as KSLA-0010 with an annotation or should there be two releases, KSLA-0010 and KSLA-0011?
2016-03-16 07650, 2016
kepstin
I suspect that it was reprinted partway through the original run, so people with early copies have the -0010 version, and later copies have the -0011 version.
2016-03-16 07618, 2016
hawke1
That'd make sense -- probably should be in as two releases then I guess, even though they're the same release in a sense.
2016-03-16 07651, 2016
kepstin
I'd just put an annotation about the catalogue number mixup for now
2016-03-16 07622, 2016
hawke1
It'd certainly be better to have 0010 cover art before adding it, I guess
2016-03-16 07613, 2016
kepstin
heh, the actual -0010 release is a piano arrange album featuring music from the company's previous games.
2016-03-16 07621, 2016
kepstin
and -0012 through -0014 are assigned to a 3-disk soundtrack release for the game (which I also have via this kickstarter)
2016-03-16 07656, 2016
kepstin
interestingly, they just shipped me a copy of the japanese release of the soundtrack, it's not a re-done or updated version like they did with mabinogi
2016-03-16 07616, 2016
kepstin
(I think the soundtrack was still in print, while mabinogi was a long out of print limited edition thing)
