Underspace - Revive (Original Game Soundtrack by Eric Britt)

In October I decided to overhaul the orchestration of our main theme. After months spent drafting several orchestrations, I’m proud to introduce Revive, the new main theme for Underspace. Revive contains the same melody you’d hum as the original, but in an entirely different setting. With the new palette of instruments, it is among the most distinct themes in the soundtrack.

Fhedden Overture - Behind the Underspace Soundtrack

Behind the Underspace Soundtrack is a series where I showcase the scores of the background music for @underspacegame. Here’s a zoomed in excerpt of the music for Fhedden. 

Fhedden is a highly radioactive region of space home to the mass grave of an unknown species and terrifying blackholes hide in various nebulas.

Underspace - Finale (Original Game Soundtrack by Eric Britt)

That’s a wrap! The Underspace Soundtrack is complete. This week I finished off the hour-long score that was months in the making. 

The Finale of the Underspace Soundtrack is the result of countless hours of composing, polishing and mixing. More time and thought was put into Finale than any other track in the game. Considering it’s the final work in the soundtrack, I had to make it count. The finished product is mesmerizing.

You can expect to hear the remainder of the soundtrack when @underspacegame​ makes its debut. Until then, feel free to listen to the current releases of the score by clicking the link below.

I hope you all enjoy the final release of the Underspace Soundtrack. Thank you for listening.

Underspace - Fhedden Overture (Original Game Soundtrack by Eric Britt)

The Underspace soundtrack is nearly complete, and Fhedden is among the final works that’s been written for the original game score. Fhedden is home to the mass grave of an unknown species, terrifying blackholes hide in various Fhedden nebulas, and the whole place is heavily radioactive.

Fhedden Overture fits like a puzzle piece with the rest of the soundtrack, and evokes feelings of paranoia and adventure. The most distinct feature of the overture is the percussive clockwork beneath the piece, which was made by contemporarily used choirs and strings.

Underspace - Macrovari Overture (Orignal Game Soundtrack by Eric Britt)

The Macrovari Overture captures the heroism and glory of Underspace’s main battle theme while standing apart from the other overtures. It’s the most energetic and uplifting of all the overtures released thus far. 

My basis for the piece was Macrovari’s industrial environment, in addition to the fact that Macrovari are really, really small. To capture the industrial atmosphere they live in, I wrote for low strings in almost a mechanical manner. A music box leads this piece. As @underspacegame developer said: “The musicbox has that punctuated mechanical aspect that they're meant to have.”

Thank you for listening, and follow @ericbrittmusic for more releases from the Underspace Original Game Soundtrack

Underspace - Marren Overture (Original Game Soundtrack by Eric Britt)

When writing the Marren Overture, I focused on three elements: Winter, and Heroism and War. Throughout the overture, all three are sprinkled in. My emphasis on winter stems from Marren’s Icy environment. Marren is an ice-cloud, so I aimed to evoke just that.
