Why A "Special Edition"?Fans of the original recording of "Spirit Blade" may wonder why I've decided to create a "special edition" of the project. Am I trying to milk them for more money? Why tamper with something they already enjoy?

After releasing "Spirit Blade" and beginning work on "Spirit Blade: Dark Ritual", I noticed almost immediately that I was producing better audio material than I had with "Spirit Blade". I had learned so much while working on "Spirit Blade" and continued to learn a lot more while working on "Dark Ritual". I began to suspect that "Dark Ritual" would be a much stronger project, technically speaking, than "Spirit Blade".

When "Dark Ritual" was released, my suspicions were confirmed as I heard from many listeners how much stronger they felt "Dark Ritual" was than "Spirit Blade". This was a great compliment to get, since sequels are rarely better than the original! But when I started work on "Pilgrim's Progress: Similitude Of A Dream", I didn't see the same leap forward in production quality and realized that I had "leveled out" to some degree. The quality between "Dark Ritual" and "Similitude Of A Dream" remained fairly consistent. But "Spirit Blade" was obviously of a lesser caliber in light of the two newer projects.

If "Spirit Blade" were a stand alone audio drama, I may have left it alone. But I knew that it was the first part of a trilogy. A trilogy that bears the same name as our production company. "Spirit Blade" is undoubtedly one of the first audio dramas people will look into when first visiting our site and learning about who we are. So it was important to me that we put our best foot forward. Additionally, when the "Spirit Blade" Trilogy is complete, the special edition of "Spirit Blade" will provide a much more consistent experience when listening to each part of the trilogy back to back.

To those who have never listened to "Spirit Blade", I think you're in for an exciting and dynamic ride! To those who have, believe me, you really haven't. With a new score, entirely remixed songs, additional sound effects and countless other enhancements, "Spirit Blade: Special Edition" is a whole new ride. But don't worry, you'll feel right at home.

And to those who are "Spirit Blade purists" and actually prefer the original mix(if any of you truly exist), I am so grateful to have you listening! Your support and dedication has helped build the foundation of this little company.

Welcome to the exciting new beginning of Spirit Blade Productions! Thanks for listening and don't forget to Seek The Truth!
