The Making of Freljord Music


I happened to come across this great video, the making of the music behind Freljord. These guys really did a lot of work for the music score and were very serious about the recording process as well.

It is awesome that the music making folks were getting inspiration visually from the art and design department (and they even got that lady over to sing in their recordings). That should really be the way to go. Many productions tend to treat music either as a separate process from their visual workflow, or as an afterthought.

Also, I really like the fact that they were not rushing merely to meet a deadline, but they were actually allowing their creativity to soar while they explored different instruments that could further draw the player into the environment they create with the visuals, music and sound.

  1. Very true. The audio aspect is a very important element of the holistic experience; Neglecting it or not giving the audio department enough space and opportunity to develop their work is very dangerous.

    Thanks for the nice post. :)

  2. Yes Praeco, I like it that you used the word dangerous. Sometimes this can make or break the product, when not handled properly so it can be dangerous in the eyes of the production, creative and business sense indeed.
