The official Facebook page for the Video Game Orchestra has revealed that they, in conjuction with SoundtRec Boston (their recording division), are the Boston-based orchestra that Tai Yasue mentioned would be re-reocrding tracks for Kingdom Hearts HD 2.5 ReMIX. According to Tai Yasue, 90 tracks from Kingdom Hearts II have been re-recorded in this way in HD 2.5 ReMIX.

Here's their official announcement:

"Kingdom Hearts HD 2.5 ReMIX official soundtrack recorded by Video Game Orchestra, Força & SoundtRec Boston!"

Dear VGO fans,

Some of you may have wondered when the Kingdom Hearts series co-director, Tai Yasue, mentioned about recordings in Boston during his E3 interview...

And yes, we can finally reveal this VGO - Video Game Orchestra & SoundtRec Boston (our recording division) worked on the official Kingdom Hearts HD 2.5 ReMIX soundtrack!!! The music is sounding better than ever - you will be blown away by its gorgeous sound.

The beautiful music of Yoko Shimomura was orchestrated by our creator/producer Shota Nakama and is being mixed by our incredible engineer, Falk Au Yeong.

Congratulations to all our VGO & SoundtRec team members and musicians who tirelessly worked on this huge project. We cannot wait for you all to hear the music very soon!

The VGO also revealed in a comment on the post that a soundtrack CD is going to be released, implying that we may see the soundtrack outside of Japan as well.

Is this the same team that worked on the 1.5 soundtrack? If not, who did 1.5?

    Some team in Japan supervised by Yoko.

    I'm honestly really glad to see that production for Kingdom Hearts games is being taken outside of Japan, sounds like their aiming to do an even better job with the score than the team Yoko had going.. Can't wait!!

    Wait, so Shimomura's not going to be taking part in this like she did in 1.5?

    Not sure how I feel about that...

    It's already done.

     

    Look at this another way: Yoko could be working on FINAL FANTASY XV.

    That's true... I guess it would be a good excuse on her behalf.

    Let's hope that these guys do the soundtrack justice.

    Even if Yoko's not in charge of this re-orchestration, the music still comes from.her. I'll just be ecstatic to hear it with live instruments.

    The trailers' soundtrak was already reorchestrated? It wasn't, right?

    Yes  it's only the songs that weren't orchestrated that are getting the treatment.

     

    Working Together, The Encounter, and the Menu trailer music were already orchestrated (The first two tracks probably being recycled from BBS)

    I contacted VGO and they said that they worked with Yoko very carefully on this. They said that they are almost done.
