I don't know much about musical theory, nor am I a musically inclined person. However, I do love to listen to video game soundtracks. They can be a powerful listening experiences in their own right, or be as evocative as the scores composed for film. Each of these posts will feature a sampling of music tracks from a single game title, or series/franchise in some rare cases. A complete list of these can be found on the Video Game Music page.
Composer: Inon Zur
Singer: Aubrey Ashburn
North American Release Date: November 2009
Set in the fictional kingdom of Ferelden during a period of civil unrest, the game puts the player in the role of a warrior, mage, or rogue coming from an elven, human, or dwarven background. The player character is recruited into the Grey Wardens, an ancient order that stands against bestial forces known as "Darkspawn", and is tasked with defeating the Archdemon that commands them.
The soundtrack was recorded with a 44-piece orchestra, recorded twice and merged to sound like an 88-piece orchestra. Zur wanted the soundtrack to feel "dark", combining low brass and bass string instruments with ancient drums to express a feeling that was both heroic and demonic.
