Hybrid Heroes volume II (2015)

The second offering in James’s highly successful and award winning series of Hybrid Heroes albums.
In part due to the success of 2013’s ubiquitous HH vol.I, the orchestral-hybrid sound has continued at the vanguard of the modern film and gaming sound world.
Such was the demand, James revisited the genre with even bigger sweeping, epic themes and several computers worth of beeps, braams, bends, bumps and beats.
