A Screen in the Dark

Author Comments

This is the soundtrack for my game, "A Sweet Typing Thrill".

To be entirely honest, even though I had a few ideas rolling around in my head, I composed this track in a bit of a rush. A few parts of the piano playing were even improvised. I recorded this before I went to Japan, and now I've already been back for several weeks, meaning I finished this piece quite a while ago.

However, the fact that I'm uploading this now means that my game is finally uploaded!

Play it over here:

In case you're interested, you can watch me play the piece over at youtube:

I also included parts of the project - as it looks in Cubase - in the video.

I don't want to steal any more of your time than this with the description. I hope you enjoy the piece, and that you take some time to play the game!
Although, as the game is a sequel I suppose you might want to play the original first, in case you have yet to do so :p

Thank you again for checking out so much of my stuff! If you like music that much, perhaps you play some instrument yourself?

You've really created something special here. Your music for the "Playing With Letters" series is probably your best work. I still dunno how or why you haven't blown up already, fingers crossed though. I hope this is just a case of "delayed appreciation".

LucidShadowDreamer responds:

Yeah, I always have fun working on these ambient pieces! It's cool that you like it too ^____^
Thanks a lot for the compliments! I appreciate it :)

Cool! I like the feels this gives. I'm intrigued now. Gotta check that game out! Obviously since it's an ambient song, it isn't very exciting mixing-wise, so as a standalone song I fault that. But it's still gud.

LucidShadowDreamer responds:

Thanks for the review!

Well, it's not really supposed to be standalone, so I suppose that's fine. There are different genres for a reason, after all :)
