Description
Genre: Action, Cartoon RPG.
Story of the game: You play as a young man, searching for your missing wife. While investigating, you found out the mafia may have captured her, for yet unknown reason. Unfortunately, the mafia emprisonned you and now you are looking to escape.
The First track represent the Escaping of the prison, its very high energy, it's fighting music. You are fighting with guards, there are alarms and a big rush of adrenaline.
The second track represents the step after the escaping the prison, when the player is still running away, but has not completed is goal yet: to find is wife. It's a bittersweet feeling of Nostalgia.
The third and final track takes place when the hero has finally saved his wife, its a happy ending track.
I Composed each track on FL Studio, only using 2 VST Plugins, "Vital" and "BBC Symphony Orchestra".
Made those 3 tracks in 3 days. (Writing, Mixing and Mastering)
Message from the artist:
I hope you all like it !
Theme:
How does it fit the theme?
Each track is different, but treats about different feelings of the Theme: Runaway.
First, the feelings when escaping (from a prison).
Then the feelings of sadness, nostalgia, after running away.
Finally, the feeling of peace and freedom, that comes when all troubles have come to an end.

Wow, this music—the first and third tracks especially—is swole. It’s good to hear heavy, muscular music that isn’t just a Hans Zimmer bwom-fest.
Good clean crisp and confident sound, and it had me anticipating the drop, which is always fun.
I loved the happy ending vibes of the last track! Great job on all of them!
Thank you very much :D
Escaping... it sounded like pokemon gym battle for a moment almost got sued by nintendo but then you changed, clutch. Nowhere to go is my favourite, sweet small songs, simple, well done
Yeah my friend told me the exact same thing when i posted it aha, but it's not even an unconscious inspiration, i never heard the pokemon gym battle music before :P
Thanks a lot :)
"Escaping" sounds like 90s club anthem. Very cool ^_^.
Ahah yes!! Thank you :)
Loved the third track. Great 90s feel in a way,
Thank you !
That was a awesome listen good work! :)
Thank you ! :)
Nice big orchestral vibe in the first song. My style. I can imagine how it could sound even better with a little better quality virtual instruments.
Then you wow me with the beautiful tonal change in song 2. Bravo! And finally... electrotrap!? Very fun! I appreciate that you have many different styles you like to write in. Maybe in the future you'll find a style that combines them! If so I would like to hear it :)
Thank you very much, I really appreciated you review on my tracks !
I totally agree with you, all the instruments I chose are free, and maybe not the best.
My goal is to show people that buying expensive plugins is not necessary at first. I think that the most important thing is to learn how to use what you have, to make the best sounding music and sounds possible. I still have a lot to learn with the instruments I have, and it's a lot of fun ! And yes, I tend to write in a lot of different styles, i still haven't found a way to combine them ahaha.
I like how you mixed electronic elements with orchestra in "Escaping". It delivers a strong opening and a sense of conflict.
I think my favourite is "Looking For You". It has a nice emotional vibe and I could imagine it playing during an important cutscene.
For the last one, I think the outro is my favourite part. It really feels like an appropriate conclusion. I do like that you made the theme from the opening recur in a more uplifting manner in this.
Good work!
Hey!
Thank you very much for listening and appreciating my work !
It was challenging to mix electronic elements with orchestra but i like the way it turned out :D
