The Beginning of the End
(2008)

The Beginning of the End is an EP by xoc.

From the Concatenation Records website:

“ xoc has participated in other Concatenation compilations, but this is his first solo release for the label (and for Good-Evil Records), and it's quite the endeavor. xoc has spent the last three and a half years working on a medley that consists of 100 short themes from video games which spans 18 minutes and 22 seconds.

Since the length is under 24 minutes, xoc decided to have this release printed up on 3" CDs, which are now out of print.

 ”

From the Good-Evil website:

“ Here at Good-Evil, were are proud to announce our first album release on own Good-Evil Records imprint, as part of the Concatenation Records family. And what better way to start our mini-label than with a brand new Xoc album? Xoc, who you may remember as “that dude who covered all of Super Mario World” or that guy who blew you away with his Kirby cover album, has produced one of the most ambitious albums he’s put out to date. Containing 100 video game themes covered in less than 20 mins, this project has been a labor of love for Xoc since 2004.

We’ve collaborated with Jason Vincion at Concatenation Records to bring you this album on a 3″ mini-CD, each lovingly created in the Good-Evil CD production factory (which may or may not be my computer room in my apartment). This is a limited issue release, with only 100 copies being produced.
