It’s been a while since I pulled together an MSU in just a day or two! 😏
For days before the release, I was getting articles about this upcoming retro-style RPG and to be honest I thought nothing of it. Then release day came and it seemed like EVERYONE was playing it.
I found out that the creator of the game was the same one who made The Messenger a few years ago, Sabotage Studio. Knowing the music from that game was pretty good, I bought the Sea of Stars OST sight-unseen. And it didn’t disappoint.
The game has a ton of great music, laid out over 3 discs. I haven’t played the game myself, but without giving much away, some of the tracks across Disc’s 2 and 3 are alternate versions of tracks from the “Main” album (Disc 1 – which comprises of 132 of the 207 tracks). It made for some easy tracks, like using these alternates for Post-Ped pull and Post-7 Crystals.
It was a really fun MSU to make, as the project became less of a question of pairing tracks with locations from SoS, but more about how the songs sounded to me and where I thought they’d fit best. It reminded me of the NFL Themes MSU I made with Fearagent, where he did most of the up front work, but my process turned it into a “placement puzzle”.
As mentioned, Sea of Stars only took a day or two to pull together… but I did have a couple of folks (thanks Telethar and StructuralMike!) test it live, which helped me out with reorganizing tracks and fixing some volume issues. I also found a couple more bangers for the final version which really helped round it out.
