about

Soundtrack for the game Ruins of Calaworm, currently in development by @erdbeerscherge twitter.com/erdbeerscherge
The music for this game had to reflect both the medieval, Cthulhu-esque & steampunk aspects of the setting, as well as the cute 16-bit aesthetic of the visuals, and the more comical aspects of the gameplay. To do this, I eventually settled on combining NES synths with real instruments. I made use of the tb_peach, and Super Audio Cart, as well as various real life sample libraries, and a real viola player. Many unusual instrumental combinations were used, reflecting the sometimes surreal nature of the game. Bassoon, harpsichord, prepared piano, trumpet, renaissance recorders, drumkit, crumhorns and more...

You can check out my blog entry on this soundtrack for a full breakdown of my process:
