Description
This soundtrack was made for a fictive visual novel called « Lily And The Djinny ». Based on that amazing visual by @Avyary, I had to go on with music and poetry… So that would stick to other mesmerizing arts in the same atmosphere and spirit.
Imagine this game as a short visual novel where you’ll have to guide Lily through her questionning and enchantements.
Title Screen – Wish Upon A Star
Lily has always belived there was some magic hiding in the world. Maybe she has some powers herself. She listens to the landscapes to let her soul touch a bit of magic. Whishing to fill the void...
Chapter 1 - Contemplate
Lily looks at the immense sky and wonders, her thoughts go from contemplation to nostalgia, asking herself what she would do if her wish came true…
Chapter 2 - Soaring In Purple Skies
Lost in her mind, Lily elevates herself above the clouds and then realises she left the ground. Flying feels good, good bye home, wherever it is...
Chapter 3 - The Magic Music Box
Above the sky in a violet sea, close to the moonlight, she finds a music box. Cranking it makes a genius appear, Djinny. They dance together and as the music unfold she understand deep inside that the genius has read in her soul and has promised her bliss.
Final Chapter - Dor
Lily must come down to earth, leaving Djinny makes her torn apart. She has to say goodbye to these wonderful moments while she eproves varied mixed emotions, but in the end she’s descending with bliss, she found peace. The landing, back home, feels like her soul is fulfilled and resolved.
Thanks to the genius, Lily has seen her wish granted. Maybe she never really left the ground. But who cares ? She now knows that there is no void to fill. :)

To make this, I used Cubase Elements, a lot of Spitfire's BBC Orchestra free plugin and some sounds from my Roland synth and a few others plugins.
Message from the artist:
A short poetic visual novel !
Theme:
How does it fit the theme?
Well I think the piano and the etheral wurlie reverb gives a fitting atmosphere with the picture.
All along I was composing with a kind of "story" in mind. At least I had several emotions inspired by the sentence "Wish upon a star" and this magnificent art !
The soundtrack translate the internal trip/feelings of someone set in this calming visual. It gives both nostalgia, melancholia, joy and so on... Then the theme suggest hopes and fears, imagination too.
So... that was the mix ! :)

Love these chord choices in all these tracks! Fantastic composition in all these tracks, and along with the instrumentation it matches the theme extremely well. Amazing work, this is perfect. The fourth track is my favorite for sure!
Thank you very much :) Happy you could dance with the Djinny! ^^
Really loving the breath of the wild vibes coming from this, but the twist you put on that formula in the 4th track also goes hard. The world you've created here feels very immersive and fleshed out, as abstract as it is, and every swell of the music feels as though it lines up beat-for-beat with the short poems that correspond to it. I would totally play this game if it existed.
Thanks a lot! I'm really happy you could feel the poems with the music, goal achieved for me ^^ and it's good to know that it makes someone want to experience this story! :) Thanks for the feedback.
Nice work! I love the story you made for your visual novel. The music fits it well!
Thank you! I hope you had a good moment listening to it! :) going to listen to yours right now!
