After a successful Kickstarter campaign, Dren McDonald and Jason Poss are now accepting pre-orders for their string quartet album with a modern video game twist. The String Arcade features 15 tracks from games both modern and retro. The composers hope to inspire gamers to learn the viola, violin, and cello. The album is available for pre-order at 20% off the normal price on iTunes and BandCamp. All of the proceeds of the album will go to support the Alameda Music Project, a free after school music program for kids in kindergarten up to grade 5. Check out the track listing bellow:
