Description

Austin Wintory’s third collaboration with Giant Squid and creative director Matt Nava, Sword of the Sea, sees it’s soundtrack surfing onto vinyl.

The music has been specially mastered for vinyl and is pressed to heavyweight discs, all housed in a deluxe gatefold sleeve. Illustrator Elaine Lee has created original artwork that flows from the front cover to the back.

Nominated for Best Score Soundtrack for Video Games and Other Interactive Media at the 68th GRAMMY Awards, Sword of the Sea is an aesthetic successor to thatgamecompany’s Journey and Giant Squid’s ABZÛ and The Pathless. The album is a mellifluous musical adventure, resonating immaculately with the game’s sense of flow and beauty. Piano, synthesisers, strings, wind, and choral elements collaborate with, and cascade over one another, always with a purposeful momentum. Harmonically, pieces carry the listener along a gently undulating path, punctuated by unexpected chord changes — jagged little musical surprises that hint at the game’s deeper mysteries.

Soloists Kristin ‘Field of Reeds’ Naigus, Tina Guo, Malukah, Paul Cartwright and Tom Strahle elevate the score with soaring performances, while ensembles including London Voices and the Phoenix Boys Choir enrich the texture of the enveloping compositions.
