waffleturner a spectacular soundtrack for a spectacular game, is electronica-orchestra even a genre yet? Favorite track: Attic.

sunlightandgreaves super strong work. HO showing serious compositon and arrangement skill. percussion samples are top notch. ggwp. Favorite track: One and One.

Eight Rooks Fantastic game (beat it on Apple Arcade), fantastic soundtrack - surprised it was not Floex, that's about my only criticism of the music. Had to own it nonetheless. Captivating stuff.

about

Original soundtrack for the game Creaks.
amanita-design.net/games/creaks.html

2xLP + CD released by Minority Records.

Created over 5 years, the music in the game is generative, randomised, and infinite.
This OST takes just 21 of the 100+ pieces in the game, and turns them into traditional 'fixed' versions of the tracks.
The soundtrack reflects Amanita's marriage of beautiful hand-drawn artwork with technology, as well as the game's progression through time - a mix of genres including primitive hand-made instruments, an ambient baroque world with bells and choirs and organs, a Classical world filled with piano and strings, an electronic world pulsing with analog synths, and a futuristic noir underworld with moody bass clarinet..

Years ago I fell in love with Floex's music following a playthrough of the games "Machinarium" and "Samorost", both of which he provided the music for. This album contains that same unique Floex sound and energy. keyedupagain

I've put this record on so many times and I'm still not even remotely bored of it. Lush, creative, light and yet full of depth. There are a couple moments where the mix is just breathtakingly perfect. In terms of game scores, it's absolutely one of the best. Sage G.C.

Promises
by Floating Points, Pharoah Sanders & The London Symphony Orchestra

supported by 63 fans who also own “Creaks (Original Soundtrack)”

Magic in its purest form. I love Floating Points, I love Pharoah Sanders, I love The London Symphony Orchestra. It's a match made in heaven, and the result is absolutely gorgeous. I have loved this record since its release, and realized I don't own it for some reason. So its time to change that. 9.5/10 honestly could become a 10/10 on an indepth vinyl relisten. angrypizza98
