Soundtrack composed for Lone Rabbit's OST Composing Jam #3.

Listen on SoundCloud here.

This soundtrack was written as an expansion to my submission for OST Composing Jam #2, SOLUS GALAXIA Original Soundtrack, which is available here.

Game Summary:

Your search far and wide for more life has led you here, to a strange hidden planet battered by fast and extreme seasonal changes. Life seems abundant here, but what will you find as you go deeper and explore the planet?

The soundtrack is composed in a mostly orchestral style, with some tracks incorporating guitars and synthesisers to give the tracks a "space-like" feel.

Track 1: The Hidden Planet - 3:41
Main theme of the expansion and the planet.
Your search has taken you far and wide to all sorts of environments, but this mysterious, unknown planet feels different. Just what is waiting for you down on it's surface?

Track 2: The Unstirring Spring - 3:15
The theme of the spring season.
The long, freezing winters lead life on this planet to hibernate for an extended period of time, well into the spring. Having just being ravaged by the frost, the land lays dormant and eerily quiet, awaiting its new awakening.

Track 3: Sun-Drenched Plains - 2:59
The theme of the summer season.
The sun shines bright, and the wildlife is out in full force. The endless plains you explore across are teeming with all sorts of wonderful creatures, motivating you to explore further.

Track 4: Fiends in the Leaves - 2:32
The fighting theme of the autumn season.
Not all life on the planet is passive and friendly. The forests now being covered in golden leaves, you're ambushed by a group of creatures, and they don't seem to want to leave without a fight.

Track 5: Glacial Chill - 3:33
The theme of the winter season.
Winter has rolled in, and the once-colourful world has been hidden in a sheet of white. Despite the relentless cold, some life has managed to thrive, breaking up the barren snowdrifts.
