A downloadable soundtrack

We're envisioning a game based around the concept of your life "flashing before your eyes" as you die. This game has the player exploring the mind of a dying woman, guiding her through each of her memories stored within bubbles; the character ages with her memories, as the player goes through them in chronological order, hoping to give the woman closure before she passes on. The soundtrack we've written aims to capture the enigmatic and strange world that these memories inhabit, as well as the wistful nostalgia experienced within the memories themselves. The songs within the subconsious loop endlessly, while the songs within the memories have definitive endings.


The Light at the End - This track is the game's main theme; it utilises a reversed acoustic guitar to symbolize the journey back through memories, as well as dreamlike reverb and stereo panning. This track also introduces the leitmotif that connects all of the 'dreamworld' songs.

Wist - As the title suggests, this aims to evoke wistfulness. This is a track that would play within one of the woman's memories.

Drifitng Deeper - As the player ventures deeper into the subconsious, things become strange and distorted; is something hidden deep within these memories?

Night Terrors - A particularly traumatic memory is unearthed, or perhaps a dark secret is unveiled; This song starts with ominous piano before erupting into a chaotic electric guitar.

Wander - Feeling lost and uncertain, this track plays within another memory.

Temple in the Mind - This track is the theme for the innermost sanctum within the subconsious; this mysterious feeling is repesented by the weird 7/4 groove and the strange phrase lengths.
