As I mentioned earlier this year, I was part of the team of composers and arrangers that worked on the completely reworked musical score for the game, which features literally hours of interactive music.

The reviews are just starting to trickle in, but so far reception of the game and its audio has been outstanding! One reviewer said the new music is “beautiful”, and another praised it as “alarmingly good.” We really put a lot of time into the music, staying true to the spirit of the original MIDIs while breathing life into the production and arrangement by using modern samples and live instrumentation.

Whether you’re a casual gamer or diehard fan of the original game, I’m sure you will enjoy MI2:SE and all it has to offer. If you already have it, post here and let me know what you think!

It’s essentially a “match three” type game (a la Bejeweled) but with some very interesting twists and new game modes. Musically, I was asked to do a single, long loop in a new age / electronic style that is lighter and more ambient than my usual work.

You can download the track as a free MP3 by clicking right here: “Spatial Recognition”. Feel free to leave a comment and let me know what you think!
