A classic tale, in a brand new definition.

This release is the culmination of over 6 months of hard work by Sam and the Mana Wave Media team. Not only did Sam source and recreate the sounds note by note by ear, we tracked down and purchased original equipment from the time period which did not have any samples available online.

MANA, a Secret of Mana recreation by Jammin' Sam, is now open for pre-order!

Mana Wave Media is proud to present our first original:

MANA: A Secret of Mana recreation by Jammin' Sam Miller!

Featuring licensed art from Mana series artist Hiroo Isono and brand new artwork from adorning a gatefold jacket in gold foil alongside royal crest themed inner sleeves. A classic fantasy tale with a classic storybook presentation.

Jammin' Sam Miller has worked painstakingly over the course of months, sourcing and recreating the lush sounds of the world of Mana in a modern, uncompressed state. These covers were recreated from the original HEX data by Sam, note by note by ear, researching and tracking down the original sample patches and hardware available at the time and translating them to a modern studio environment unhindered by the compression of the SNES.

A one time press of up to 500 per variant, pre-orders open this Friday, July 21st @ 1PM ET for two weeks. Once the pre-order period ends, that's it, and this deluxe 2XLP set won't be pressed again, by anyone, and only leftovers will be sold once in hand.
