You have probably heard about Dreamscaper, a game of adventure and epic battles within the dreams and nightmares of Cassidy, the main character.
I tried to re-imagine the music based on my classical repertoire, adapted a little bit for the purpose. đ
How I chose the music
Well, I chose specifically the music by trying to overlap what I actually hear and what I think about it. For example: when you see the nightmare monster at the beginning I chose the excerpt from Scriabinâs ninth sonata (also known as âBlack Massâ) for its creepiness.
At this point, you should know (if youâve played the game) what music I chose for the first boss. I wonât spoil it for you. đ
Whatâs the purpose of this video?
Well, the first thing I would say to answer this question is that I think itâs entertaining, and the second thing (after thinking about it a little bit more) is making my channel somewhat synesthetic, i.e. publishing music and an interesting visual. The purpose is to live music, not just hearing frequencies.
How long did it take to edit?
It took a couple of months to practice the excerpts, adapt them, and edit the video. But thatâs considering that I didnât spend hours at a time doing this (10-20 minutes per day and not constantly).
Comment where you want (either here or on youtube). Have a nice day!
P.S. I respect the original team who put the original game music. Itâs only about experimenting here. đ
