Finished around 2023-12-14, this composition (the second composition I made after my decade-long hiatus from making music) is a dark, dreary, and ominous original instrumental music composition loosely inspired by video games such as Silent Hill 2. With this piece I wanted to capture some of the same oppressive mood as old-school horror games and I think it came out fairly effective in that respect.

For this song, most of the instruments I used are from FL Studio's Autogun and Ogun plugins. Like "The Secluded Wilds" (the first composition I made after my decade-long hiatus from making music), I actually started composing "The Misty Abyss" a while back (maybe about a year ago?) but then dropped it until recently picking it back up and completing it once my creative momentum picked up a bit more.

By the way, the FL Studio Autogun is a plugin I'm especially fond of since it is essentially a sound patch randomizer with an easy interface and often produces good-sounding instruments. However, most "The Misty Abyss" instruments use Ogun actually.

The reverb uses a convolution of a warehouse stairwell's reverb (if my memory is correct), which helps the music to sound underground and oppressively claustrophobic.

I hope you enjoy this piece and get some of those eerie horror vibes from it!
