A Vast and vibrant world
Heera features many distinct biomes, and its music should reflect its diversity as players progress from area to area. An Original Soundtrack for Coridden needs enough diversity to incorporate these various settings, but with enough cohesion to bind them into a connected world.

In an action packed adventure like Coridden, the music should feel sweeping and exciting. With an intensity level appropriate for the gameplay, we can carve an identity out from similar games with the quality of the music.
I'm hoping to blending the familiarity of the orchestra with modern sensibilities and instrumentation - adding another unique element to the sound of the game.

We can communicate the vastness of the various biomes of Heera with different lush, orchestral soundscapes - and differentiate it from the close-knit community of Quilon City, by changing the amount of instruments and styles of their music.

We can communicate the vastness of the various biomes of Heera with different lush, orchestral soundscapes - and differentiate it from the close-knit community of Quilon City, by changing the amount of instruments and styles of their music. Our players can feel safe in the intimacy of a solo piano or inspired by the majesty of an open landscape without losing a step.
And, even within these ensembles, there is room to grow. A string trio can be warm and intimate, or loud and intense - an added layer of diversification we should feel empowered to use.

A danger of having many different ensembles and genres is that the various locales can feel disconnected; my preferred way to help players feel these spaces exist in the same world is with strong thematic development. When our characters, our story themes, and our regions have familiar melodies and motifs, we can invite a sense of familiarity to the score.
Themes That Grow Alongside Our Characters

We can further enhance the emotional arc of our characters by reflecting their journey in their musical identities. For instance, as we traverse the world as Devi, we should feel her musical theme develop from kind and supportive, to confident and powerful as she grows to protect those she loves, and the community she calls home.

I think unique and personal themes and developments for each of the Dayal siblings would do wonders to help us invest in the characters over the course of the game.

My Musicianship & Production
Since music has become my passion, I've worked hard to hone my technical skills in audio and production. With many years of production work as a Music Producer, a Podcast Producer, and a Pro Tools "Pro User" Certification, I can guarantee a high-quality, finished musical product - produced all on my own. I have a variety of high-quality digital instruments and plugins to accentuate my versatility in this department.
Additionally, I'm a trained and seasoned performer on a variety of instruments and in a variety of genres. Whether it's classical piano, rock guitar, jazz bass guitar, vocals, or more, I'm confident in my performance practice, and my ability to self-record. By writing to my own strengths, and handling all of the production elements myself, we can cut timelines and production budgets in service of the best soundtrack.
North Coast Scoring
In addition to my personal production abilities, I own and operate a small orchestral scoring company called 'North Coast Scoring' based in Cleveland, OH. Because its not in a major metro like NY/LA, we can provide full, orchestral recordings at a relative fraction of a cost! That way, smaller budget games & films like yourselves can afford beautiful, full orchestrations - just like the larger studios.
As a production studio, we've already earned a Regional Emmy for the film "CRESCENDO," directed by Debra Joan Najor and Cuyper Reynolds. If you guys are interested in a full orchestral score, I'd love to work together to make that viable at your budget!
