about

I wrote this piece as the soundtrack for the game Cyto, which I think is best described with a quote from its game jam page. Cyto is "a game about being a small part of something much bigger that's a small part of something much bigger." As the player's perception of scale changes throughout the game, so too does the music, evolving slowly as the player reaches checkpoints. I have slightly condensed these changes for this album, but you can clearly hear a gradual layering of instrumentation. I also utilized melodic and harmonic interactions to try to convey a progression from calm and anticipation to melancholy, hope, frustration, and ultimately ending at peace.
