From the album's website:
| “ | Contra 4: Rocked 'n' Loaded is a remix album of the video game soundtrack from the game Contra 4 for Nintendo DS. Directed by Andreas 'SnappleMan' Kotsamanidis and Assistant Director Tony 'Prince of Darkness' Dickinson, C4:RnL is a metal remix album from some of the most recognized rock and metal remixers in the scene. The original soundtrack was composed by another very prominent remixer, Jake "virt" Kaufman. When Contra 4 was released, the reception was very positive, but even amongst the unsatisfied, there was one truth that held strong, the soundtrack was exceptional.
Kaufman's virtuosic musical skills created a soundtrack that stays true to the original music, while injecting a fresh take to the classic themes, in addition to brand new music that effortlessly compliments the Contra gameplay. Of course, a fantastic soundtrack deserves a fantastic interpretation, so we, the Contra 4 Remix team, bring to you Contra 4: Rocked 'n' Loaded. |

History
The most epic of remix projects, development of this project was announced on January of 2008 by SnappleMan. He banded together with the best of the best of the musicians from the remixing scene as a whole and delivered to us all a ball crunching, face smashing, awesome metal force. Although the project wasn't without its troubles and many many many many many delays (crashing UPS trucks!), things came through in the end. Snapple and co. had successfully done the greatest justice possible to virt's musical work. Also virt ended up remixing one of his own songs! Well played, gentlemen.
The album was finally released in March of 2010.
