Austin Wintory : Sword of the Sea (Original Soundtrack)

Sword of the Sea’ is Austin Wintory’s third collaboration with Giant Squid and creative director Matt Nava. Nominated for Best Score Soundtrack for Video Games and Other Interactive Media at the 68th GRAMMY Awards, ‘Sword of the Sea’ is an aesthetic successor to thatgamecompany’s Journey and Giant Squid’s ABZU and The Pathless. The album is a mellifluous musical adventure, resonating immaculately with the game’s sense of flow and beauty. Piano, synthesisers, strings, wind, and choral elements collaborate with, and cascade over one another, always with a purposeful momentum. Harmonically, pieces carry the listener along a gently undulating path, punctuated by unexpected chord changes – jagged little musical surprises that hint at the game’s deeper mysteries.
