The very talented musicians we've been working with to create the music for Grim Dawn had a recording session recently and came up with this first track:

Sounds great!

But who are these mysterious musicians? :0

[yerkyerk]

I'm impressed. Sounds good!

Sounds very good...excited to see the song matched up with the game someday

An audio post has been a long time coming, but this is just the tip of the iceberg. I've been working with a good friend to compose and record the score for the game, and I think everyone will be happy with the end result.

How are these songs composed? Is that real instrumentation or synthesized computer generated sounds?

A combination of both is typically the standard for soundtracks these days, where there isn't a budget to hire a full orchestra. The real instruments played are the piano, tambourine, flute, duduk, and some of the percussion. The remaining instruments were private instrument banks created in Gigastudio, Logic, and Fruity Loops amassed over 15 years of composition. Everything was recorded in real-time, however, because pre-quantized instruments, no matter how realistic, always sound less real.

Thanks, always wondered about that stuff.
