Critical Role’s first adventuring crew Vox Machina are making the leap from tabletop to animation tomorrow with the long-awaited launch of Amazon Studios’ newest sequence, The Legends of Vox Machina. But earlier than you see them enterprise forth, you’ll be able to hearken to them introduce themselves in fashion with io9’s sneak peek on the sequence’ soundtrack launch.

But maybe extra fascinating—and in a completely completely different route to Acree’s sweeping, fantastical orchestral rating—is that this snippet from “The Legend of Vox Machina.” An in-show tune carried out by Critical Role’s Sam Riegel, reprising his position as gnome bard Scanlan Shorthalt, the tune, composed with Peter Habib of Mr. Fantastic, basically acts as Scanlan’s musical hype tune for the get together, introducing them one after the other in humorous (and sometimes racy) fashion as he explains what they every convey to the group… and why after all they need to be employed for any well-paying quests.

It’s very cute—particularly when Scanlan trades his whimsical strumming for a rap-influenced refrain about his personal experience—and, should you weren’t positive sufficient simply how tounge-in-cheek the fantasy sequence would possibly get in its adventuring, gives you an excellent indicator of simply how foolish issues with Vox Machina can often get.

The Legend of Vox Machina’s authentic soundtrack will function 47 tracks in all from the sequence, together with the 2 above, and is set to release digitally alongside the launch of the primary three episodes of the sequence from tomorrow, January 28.
