Thanks to Darya Noghani for letting me tell stories in their world! Their game is gonna rule and you should check out the demo on Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1320140/Small_Saga/
Getting a commission like this really helped me upskill on the production end of things and I’ve learnt a ton putting the EP together. Hopefully you can hear the difference in the finished product - I’m looking forward to taking what I’ve learnt and applying it to the next album!

If you haven't listened to Shifting Mound Movement IV all the way through before you definitely should
I think my favorite tracks is always going to be The Apotheosis, but Amelia Jones, who does incredible work on every track featuring her, really gets to show off in the latter half of this one

Riverstar: Video Game-Inspired Instrumentals With A Hip-Hop Twist.
Her latest EP, “The Return to the Crystal Canyon,” will take the audience on a unique journey!
October 2023 - Riverstar, also known as River, is a very imaginative artist who likes to think outside the box when creating music that’s quite one-of-a-kind. She has a focus on video game-inspired instrumentals, seamlessly intertwined with hip-hop influences and a lo-fi twist.
Because of this rather distinctive combination of styles, Riverstar is able to create a captivating sonic signature that transcends genres, leading to more immersive listening experiences for the audience. Her music isn't just a collection of tracks; it's an intricate narrative that leads the audience on a cinematic adventure, much like getting lost in the worlds and captivating characters of a video game.
The world of hip-hop might feel quite far removed from the idea of video game music. However, Riverstar created a good balance between these two styles. The ebb and flow of hip-hop merges well with the otherworldly nature of video game soundtracks and their grander scope. This fusion results in a musical experience that's both familiar and fresh, expansive yet nuanced, and even intimate in its own right. The EP features three songs, including the first track, “Where should we go next?” - This song serves as a really good introduction to what people can expect from the mood of this release. The track kicks off with a really cool arpeggio, which adds a dreamy and mesmerizing mood along with the ambient drone that makes the ambiance stand out. Underneath it all, a simple yet articulate beat drives the music, making for a truly fascinating experience. This particular track actually reminds me of Stewart Copeland’s now legendary soundtrack for one of the older Spyro The Dragon games. The whimsical melodies add to the color and rhythm of the music, and the arrangement has a really smooth flow. The second song, “Deep within the Crystal Canyon” also offers some mesmerizing arpeggio, but it takes it all up a notch with some massive bass tones! The synth lines providing sub-energy in the mix are beefy and assertive, but they never overpower the main melody that drives the composition forward. The song still allows the beautiful arpeggios to breathe, making for yet another exciting sonic adventure in music. The third and final track on this release is titled “Robot Dragon-Spiders?!” and it is the shortest of all 3. However, the arrangement is just as rich and detailed. This time, the fuzzy synth lines and wonderfully dynamic beats actually remind a bit of retro-gaming sounds. There is something vaguely lo-fi about the aesthetics of this song, especially in the saturation of the drums and the synth lines.
Riverstar's knack for infusing her music with a very motion-driven twist, especially through the use of arpeggiated patterns, further adds depth to her compositions. This is a great way to add some nostalgic vibes without necessarily compromising the momentum of her compositions. 
To conclude, one of the standout features of this EP release is its remarkable diversity. From the upbeat and energetic melodies that accompany the arrangements to the enchanting and tranquil ambient soundscapes in the background, the music has it all. The tracks really evoke a video game scenario where players get to explore fantastic environments. Even though this music isn’t associated with any game in particular, you can almost see the world coming to life right before your eyes (and, more importantly, ears!)
Each track on “The Return to the Crystal Canyon” is thoughtfully crafted to immerse players in the unique atmosphere of the compositions. The use of a wide range of sounds adds depth and texture to Riverstar’s work, creating a rich sonic texture that mirrors the rich visual world of some of the best adventure video games.
If you want to hear more from this artist, you’re in luck! In addition to her original compositions, Riverstar also does a lot of unique remixes, which she posts on her YouTube channel, highlighting her ability to reimagine and transform music into something entirely her own.
Find out more about Riverstar, and do not miss out on the artist’s most recent releases, activities, and events.

    Happy Halloween 2022, dear listener, smash play! I’ll be posting Halloween stuff up until about 9PM my time (Eastern Coast America). I just wanted to say thanks to all the re-posters and my DEAR followers, especially the ancient ones! Tonight, I just wanted to draw attention to one of the greatest horror game franchises of all time, that being Silent Hill, and specifically the music of Silent Hill 2, which was composed by the legendary Akira Yamaoka. Without saying too much, this single video game soundtrack and its sound engineering inspired me to be a sound engineer myself at one point. Over twenty years later, I am still in love with its darksome, personal, unsettling and very scary tone. Full album here if you care to indulge... but just play SH2 instead, you will go on a troublesome but self-reflective journey. It is the closest thing to art in video games that has ever been approached in such a broad and contextual way and totally hit the mark in soundtrack, substance, and atmosphere.
Tumblr media
People like myself will make damn sure you are legendary here in America too, Akira. You’re one of my musical heroes and stood up to make a great soundtrack when no one else could.
