Thanks for sharing this here! I saw a few players in the chat, which was really cool. I know my piece was just a short part of the program, but it meant a lot to be able to conduct it live, which I'd never done before. Hopefully there will be more opportunities to do a bigger GW2 concert in the future.
As far as I understand you were a big part of getting the original Bash the Dragon recording and arrangement done... So right back at you!
Thanks a million for dropping by!!
Yes indeed! Former game designer Matthew Moore wrote the original music and lyrics, and then I played mandolin, guitar, tambourine, and sang on it with the help of a bunch of folks around the studio. I love that it still has a life of its own all these years later, so thank you for putting this together!
This is so cool! Well done!
Thanks to /u/maclaine for following through on getting the team to manually enable the download feature on every file after people commented on it
You're very welcome!
Boneskinner's theme has to be one of my new favs.
I really do enjoy the new music, and I feel it fits the more boreal motif of Icebrood Saga. Hell, I'm digging the boreal motifs in general!
The Boneskinner track is great, I agree. It's not one of mine, so I can say that humbly! Thank you for listening.
Absolutely love that creepy string heavy piece in Western Bjora that plays in the woods outside the kodan encampment. Very different from other things in the game and I mean that in a very positive way! It made the map feel so much more hostile and creepy.
I don't think that's one of mine, but thank you for listening and taking the time to appreciate!
Honestly, the stark contrast between Directsong to "hey sorry it seems like an oversight you can't download my music for free" is amazing and I'm so happy to have you working on the soundtrack. You've done absolutely fantastic.
Thanks so much. It's a team effort for sure.
Your work in gw2 is incredible. It's a big reason why I became so immersed in the game itself. Arenanet should do all they can to hang onto you and Lena.
Thank you! I'm very glad to still be working on the game after all these years. The world and the immensely talented people that create it are so inspiring and such a joy to work with, and it's so gratifying to know the music touches fans in the way we hope it will.
that black and white picture, I thought he died at first, phew
I'll check with the team about being able to download them. It's something you have to set manually on each track when you're uploading them, which is an enormous pain. My guess is it's just an oversight.
Thanks for listening and caring about the music, everyone! This season's music has been one of the most interesting and diverse in the history of the game, in my opinion. I'm always curious how the community will react when the boundaries of what "Guild Wars music" is get pushed, so thank you for being open minded and enthusiastic.
Damn, sad to hear that, but thanks for the help. Would I just tweet @ Arenanet?
I'd try tweeting at the main GW2 account and/or Rubi.
I don't have any control over the SoundCloud anymore, unfortunately, and only contributed one piece of music across the two releases. The rest of it would have to come from the studio. You can try tweeting at them, maybe.
