Waterflame | Mist - Melancholic Ambient Atmosphere @WaterflameMusic | Uploaded 2 years ago | Updated 1 day ago
This music was created in a few hours to submit to a challenge / Sync Brief that had a theme of sad and melancholic music. It's more on the ambient/atmospheric side compared to what I usually do. I used some video footage again to convey the more sad/depressing mood; This track makes me feel like I am deep in an unknown forest at the break of dawn. But it also has that trailer music / cinematic movie feeling more so than what I usually do. It kind of calls back to some of my very early more unknown stuff like "Grey Morning" and "Dark Seaside". I also tried something different with the video visuals this time, every line is a different instrument, ranging from top to bottom in order of frequency, Bass at the bottom, high instruments at the top etc.
You can get the track here:
- Bandcamp: waterflame.bandcamp.com/album/mist-ep
- Spotify: open.spotify.com/album/2c7fcA04XOjTBTDYokG0q0?si=Rx25NWWkTYyOuXCuFN6_pw
- Newgrounds: newgrounds.com/audio/listen/1150830
The track started out more positive and relaxed originally, to an actual complete state. So, I included the original major version as well in the EP! Its free to download on bandcamp,
or you can stream it from streaming services like spotify.
Thanks to pftq for helping me find the "sad" chords on this one, as originally I couldn't help writing this in major as usual lol.
