Ubisoft Music has published the "Mario + Rabbids: Sparks of Hope" Post-Launch Compilation. The soundtrack composed by Grant Kirkhope and Christophe Héral is streaming on YouTube Music, Apple Music, Spotify, and Amazon Music Unlimited.

Laced Records of London has opened preorders for the Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope deluxe triple vinyl soundtrack. Available in a standard heavyweight black disc edition and limited edition galactic variant, shipping is estimated for November. Preorders have also opened at distributors Light in the Attic in Seattle and Black Screen Records in Europe. A behind-the-scenes video entitled "A Musical Journey" can be viewed on the developer's YouTube channel.

The sequel to 2017's Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle was developed by Ubisoft's Paris and Ubisoft Milan studios. Expanding beyond the previous titles' locales within the Mushroom Kingdom, the gameplay revolves around rescuing the Sparks throughout the galaxy by engaging in turn-based tactical combat battles against antagonist Cursa and her Spark Hunters.

Over fifty tracks in length, the Sparks of Hope digital soundtrack is streaming on Spotify and Amazon Music Unlimited. Ubisoft Music's Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope soundtrack is composed by Yoko Shimomura, Grant Kirkhope, and Gareth Coker. Pre-mastering for vinyl is by Joe Caithness Mastering.


From the product page:

The three talents were tactically deployed across the score by audio director Romain Brillaud, bringing different orchestral and electronic sensibilities to the game. Kirkhope retained his ‘friendly-epic’ sound from Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle, and was assigned the narrative and character elements of the sequel’s soundtrack.

Nothing can rouse the troops quite like Shimomura-san’s stirring piano and orchestral style, and she typically wrote Sparks of Hope’s battle cues. Coker helped bring new colours and emotions to specific settings in the game as well as some boss fights, touching on styles including French impressionism to enrich the score. The whole OST is remarkably cohesive, aided by joint orchestral recording sessions that took place in Tokyo, Japan.
