Production

[edit]

Soundtrack for the Voices in My Head Vol. 02 is a production based album intended for film, TV, and video game licensing.[1] It was released in Chapters, similarly to Wish Upon a Blackstar, but in just three Chapters. The first two Chapters were released as Limited Edition CDs as well and not just as digital downloads.[4] The album has been work in progress since 2009.[5]

The full album was released on July 24, 2012.[1]

Release

[edit]

Chapter 01

[edit]

A four-minute excerpt of the track "Adrift on Celestial Seas" was released on iTunes on March 1, 2010 as part of Klayton's "Fixtape" mix. The four-minute excerpt of "Adrift on Celestial Seas" is the last track on the fixtape. No other track list for the album had been mentioned (except for one other song: "The Wings of Icarus") until June 4, 2010, when he mentioned the rest of the track listing: "Pulsar" and "The Sentinel".[2] On June 10, 2010, Klayton released the first Chapter of the album, containing 4 songs.[9]

Chapter 02

[edit]

Initially, two songs had been mentioned to be on Chapter 02, namely "Senorita Bonita" of which a demo version was released with the Groupees Unreleased EP and "Earth Scraper". The tracks "Earth Scraper", "Empyrean" and "Heart-Break" were later revealed on Position Music's website[10] and they were released on the Groupees website on October 26, 2011, in a Halloween charity event.

Chapter 02 was officially released on February 14, 2012.[4] Those who took part in the Celldweller Hot Topic T-shirt contest received an exclusive free download code before the official release date.[3]

On March 2, 2012, an additional SVH Vol. 2 song, "Elara" was released as a single.[11]

Chapter 03

[edit]

On May 29, 2012, Klayton stated that he had wrapped up "the 4th new [Soundtrack for the Voices in My Head Vol. 02] track" in addition to those released on the first two Chapters. He has also stated that he plans to make 3 or 4 more tracks for the final CD which implies that Chapter 03 is the final Chapter.[12] On June 29, 2012, Klayton announced that the full album can be expected around "August/Sept" and "it's 18 tracks deep, over 65 minutes."[13]

On July 13, 2012, Klayton released a new song, "First Person Shooter" from the upcoming SVH Vol. 02 album as a single. The release date of the full album was also announced.[14] On July 19, 2012, the cover art of the full SVH Vol. 02 album was revealed.[15] The album was released on July 24, 2012, but for digital download only as the CDs did not ship until August 21.[1]
