L(OST) in Sound: “Night in the Woods” Soundtrack by Alex Holowka
So this is the new heading that I’ll be sharing some of my favourite original soundtracks under. In some cases it’ll be themed, include an entire soundtrack, or just one or two songs from a movie, game, T.V. show or otherwise.
This first one reminds me of home... not much more I can say.
Something about this just penetrates to my core. It could be that this whole game strikes several chords with me as a 20-something from a smallish town, but I just find it very mellowing nonetheless.
This game also has dream sequences (reality bending sequences in games are a favoured trope of mine), and it has a suitably incredible layered musical number, actually a few of them, to accompany the dreamy parts of the game. The source for this one was crafty enough to include the buildup.
This game seemed to have something of an unconventional approach to music, it has one of the largest (by length anyway) original soundtracks I’ve ever seen and I could easily include a ton more, but instead I’d suggest playing the game to support very talented folks behind it or picking up the soundtrack here.
