Solitude is a great track! Love the textures you create, and the melody is cool ^^

Description
I thought of this as something along the lines of Mirror's Edge—a race through a vast city, with momentary breaks in the momentum.
The sound I wanted was a mix of extremely clean, unmodified instruments (French horn, bass guitar, piano) with very crunchy and distorted ones (synths, lead guitar, drums). I also set myself the challenge of writing something fast, since I have a tendency to focus too much on slow music.
The first track wound up accidentally drawing on a lot of NES influences, though I'm happier with the second track, Solitude. In both cases, it was a good opportunity to get out of my orchestral comfort zone.
