Music! Nine themes for Stonehearth [New track: What May Come!]

… I would have to re-listen both weaver-streams, but in my blog I have highlighted that there was no decision made yet on the music.

Yes, your music is good but I think it’s still too intense for Stonehearth. The ideal music would be light and minimal and these are not really minimal or light at all. Take Minecraft’s music; it features 1 instrument with one set of music (no overlays/backing) which is perfect for indie games, especially those such as Minecraft or Stonehearth that are very openworldy and free.

Well that’s good to know. I was basing my assumption on the fact that they’ve used other originally composed pieces in their livestream videos (for the intros). Thanks for the link @voxel_pirate!

@Zooka128 The intense stuff was written very early on - you may not have listened to my more recent tracks. Most of my tracks are very light and minimal. You seem to be suggesting that tracks with 1 instrument should be used for open world indie games, simply because they are used in Minecraft - I can’t really respond to that because it seems nonsensical. Surely an open world can have some minimal orchestral music that employs multiple instruments. I believe a rich game like Stonehearth deserves an equally compelling soundtrack.

I really like your new track. Well, it isn’t really new as it was released more than five months ago.

So, ummm, yeah.

Thanks EpicDwarf! I’ve moved on to some other projects now, but I appreciate the comment!
