Beautiful piece. I really like the story-telling and sense of journey achieved with the two contrasting sections and reprisal. Specially dig the noisy tail of the leading mallet-like synth at the intro and outro, and the sweeping pads at the second section, atmospheric with the just right twinge of melodic sparks to keep the ominous feeling at bay and give way to hope. The pitch bend for the departure of the pads is also great and the background voices also work great. It feels the pads are some kind of overseeing beings looking over us humans and our daily endeavors. You transported me to the eighties and I thank you for that. :)

Description
The setings is eraly 80´s so my pallet sound need to start from there. I take inspiration from classic of horror like Jhons Carpenter soundtracks, and for the gaming reference i use a lot resident evil.
The instruments i went straight to synthetisers to evoque more the time and to give to the sound a eary chilling darker sound, lots of arturia Pigments, and V collection, almost none proccese in these track all done with the synth engine.
For the mix i just make some level adjustments, and bassicly thats all i dont need eq or compression in theses case, only some reverbs and delays.
