Description
Hi all! After taking a loot at the theme's I decided to base my album on the words "Inside my World," of a game where a girl named Mia is taken to a world in the clouds.
I composed the music in a classical style and orchestration, featuring instruments such as violins, a flute, Celeste, percussions, and others. To create the themes, I first started out at the piano and got some simple themes, then built them out and joined them into a working series of songs. After many set backs and annoying blockage, I got the whole album runtime around 6 minutes. I found some inspiration in songs from Undertale, Stardew Valley, and Ori and the Blind Forest.
To create the album, I used my favorite DAW, LMMS, and orchestration instruments from the BBC Symphony pack.
Story: Mia is wisped up into the clouds after finding some wings that belonged to her grandma. Once there, Mia finds that there is a evil creature trying to capture the Sky crestal, which provides the magic to the world. She set off on a adventure to defeat him and save the World in the Clouds.
Description and order of tracks:
1# Main Theme: The Main Theme runs in the title menu and when major story elements are playing out.
2# A Journey in the Clouds: The song that plays when you are wondering the world and clouds. This song is designed to be looped.
3# Mia's Theme: This track plays when Mia is talking and when there story elements present. It is also played in the beginning when Mia enters the world of clouds.
4# Danger in the Wind: The song runs when an enemy chases, encounters Mia, and is near her.
5# Battle for the Crystal: This song plays at the final battle for the crystal where Mia and the evil creature battle.
Chosen theme: I based the theme of my album off of the theme words "Inside my world". The theme of the game and music is set in a world in the clouds. It is a platformer/flying game with elements of battling and upgrading.
