Art & Soundtracks #1: Nuotio

The journey in Taival begins with the adventurers gathered around a campfire together. "Nuotio" is a finnish word for a campfire. In this track you can find both the comforting warmth of the fire and the melancholy of leaving a safe place to discover something new.

Thanks for listening, and stay tuned!

Composer's notes (artsy stuff)

The writing of this track began with the melody line that opens the song. Doodling around on a keyboard trying to find something special, my ears caught the initial five notes of the melody. One by one, I was able to discover the perfect follow-up note that tickled my ossicles, merging the melancholic yet somehow warm and cozy feel. I believe I was able to capture something special.

The final track was created entirely in the box, or for those not into jargon, entirely within a computer using digital virtual instruments for everything you hear.

I personally deeply love the violin tone that plays the main melody once the orchestra opens up. It really hits the spot.
