Submission Description
After +3 years of not writing music, I felt more of a story, because I like story driven games. This is the story:
Grant is chosen for the most perilous mission in space: investigate a mysterious anomaly in Orion’s Belt. Leaving his wife on Earth, he boards the Artemis, the fastest and finest ship ever built. Hope and duty carry him into the dark, where the unknown waits beyond the comfort of stars.
The voyage is smooth—until the Belt. Instruments spike, trajectories unravel, and a hidden black hole seizes the ship in its gravity well. With Artemis drifting out of control, every second becomes a countdown, and leadership means staring into the abyss without blinking.
Grant’s only chance is a desperate plan: abandon the ship and use the escape pods’ boost to claw free of the gravity field. Through chaos, fear, and sacrifice, the crew fights their way back to the light. When Earth finally rises in the viewport, Grant returns to the life he left behind—and to the woman who kept him tethered home.

This album is incredible! The arrangement and development of all the elements of the songs are so well done, I really can see and feel the story through these works.
Thank you very much Man!
This is a really lovely soundtrack! I always enjoy music written to a story and I think you communicate it well through the soundtrack! Some great choices of instruments as well! I love story-driven soundtracks but for some constructive criticism, I feel the main motif could've been developed more for the purpose of breaking ambience for character association, but that's pretty subjective and mostly a personal preference when it comes to the ambient cinematic-style music attached to meaning (like a story), and I still think you communicate your story well! Nicely done!
Thanks you so much! and yes! I wanted to develop the theme, but lacked a bit of inspiration to find good ways to present the themes for the different characters! Thanks for listening!
Cool theme in the beginning, very hollywood-ish for the best. The compositions feels strong and well crafted, as well as the production. Looking at your youtube channel, the stylistic choices come at no surprise haha. Maybe the third track does not give as much as the others, in terms of progression. I think having some cool modulations would give a lift in these last two tracks, instead of having C major all the time. That was a really good entry !
Thank you! Man. yeah C Major was something I want to get a bit away, but after so much time not writing music, I wanted to keep as simple as I could get. But totally hear you and agree!
Awesome arrangement, well done. Super epic and cinematic, reminescent of some classic 2000s movie score.
Thank you!
Very nice and cinematic! It fits the heroic story you describe and I can easily imagine it in a professional movie. Well done!
Thank you so much!
