Description
Genre: Folk, Electronic, Experiment, etc
The kind of game is Visual Novel + RPG
The soundtrack meant to represent parts of Visual Novels and RPGs, suitable for certain story beats (Folk Song during Travel, High Tension Conflict, Sadness Terrified, In Combat). You would have fun imagining what type of game play out when listening to each pieces :))
The way an individual compose is place random bunch of notes on midi note editor, see if it to your liking, if yes then continue do it until full song, if no discard it and move on.
For team, it much more flexible everyone can share their midi, if any team member like it, they will remix that midi to their own liking (It would create new music with a spin to original)
The tools we use to compose overall soundtrack:
- Most of the team members use FL Studio (Instruments + FX) + Multiple VSTs (Rob Papen, Arturia, Synthmaster)
- On the other hand, rancanemone make the composer lives harder with Bandlab on Iphone.
Message from the artist:
hoanglongplanner - do a lot and fail a lot
Theme:
Runaway
How does it fit the theme?
The "Runaway" theme was used to come up with the short story.
The short story act as the prologue of the bittersweet journey, the first meeting of 3 main characters (Little Girl, Old Cerberus Guard Dog, Stork Bird Train Conductor) on the train.
Little Girl on the train, terrified on the idea of being alone and not know where to go home. Keep running away from Stork The Train Conductor, until she get to the end of the train. Meet the confused Cerberus Guard Dog, who just open his sleepy eyes to see a little passenger terrified of her life in front of him.
At the end, Cerberus tried to comfort the terrified girl somehow, offer to help little girl on her way home to her parents. Night comes for the rundown train, Little Girl sleep, Cerberus thoughts of what he is getting into. Stork Bird get to their seat with his cart of Milkshake and Coffee Bags, offer Cerberus and the sleeping girl two speciality drinks. The Stork let Cerberus know of his worry about little girl and glad the Guard Dog able to talk to her, before wandering off with his cart.
Cerberus decide foolishly of staying awake, for a little girl sleeping soundly without a care. Until the next stop, that awaits them in an uncertain future.
Hence the good art album cover art by rancanemone, meant to represent those 3 characters of the short story.
But we weren't much of the writer ~ we are composers :)), but to think up many scenarios that could occur past the short story with our musics :))
The soundtrack rather follow closely to the short story than the "Runaway", which put us at weird situation of could/not represent "Runaway" theme.
