People all over the world were brought back to the dance pad to perform monster beat downs to the beat through the soundtrack of the award winning indie dungeon crawler rhythm game, “Crypt of the Necrodancer” by Brace Yourself Games. The game's composer, Danny Baranowsky (Canabalt, Super Meat Boy, and The Binding of Isaac), wanted to bring the game's soundtrack to the next level and decided to bring FamilyJules7x on board to shred every track as its own metal remix album. Featured in the game as the soundtrack for Aria, the NG++ character and most difficult challenge in the game's story mode, Jules' renditions are sure to have you headbanging while you shred dragons to blast beats and breakdowns.

Aria's Ascent features the 20 in-game tracks remixed and remastered with added parts in addition to 8 special bonus tracks including covers of songs not featured in the game. Get ready for the earth shattering vocals of YouTube's Jonathan Young and Jack Fliegler (ToxicxEternity), a blistering solo by Richard Bichler (RichaadEB), and the intense tear-jerking vocals of Adriana Figueroa (Adrisaurus). While these bonus tracks are exclusive to Aria's Ascent, many of the songs in the album can be heard in game as you traverse the world of Crypt of the Necrodancer, selectable from the settings menu as any character.

The tracks from Aria's Ascent have been referred to as "F*cking Awesome" by Gamespot and can be heard as the soundtrack of choice all across Twitch.tv. For even more Necrodancer goodness, check out Danny Baranowsky's crypt-crushing original soundtrack (https://dbsoundworks.bandcamp.com/album/crypt-of-the-necrodancer-ost) or the mind-blowing EDM remix album by A_Rival (https://rivalrivalrival.bandcamp.com/album/crypt-of-the-necrodancer-the-melody-mixes). Next time you go up against a colossal dancing dragon or charging minotaur, you might want to add Aria's Ascent to your arsenal.
