I’ve been considering replacing the soundtrack for surface with a new artist.
The current one seems to have some fans. It’s a collection of songs by Kevin MacLeod.
However, I found an artist I like that has some music that is electronic, modern, classical, and relaxing. I think it might serve as a possible replacement. However, I’ve talked to one person about it already and didn’t think the music would fit the game.
Most of the tracks are creative commons by a musician in the UK named Edward Abela. Give them a listen and let me know your thoughts? If they are not used for surface, they will definitely be used for space.
I like Edwards tracks because they are melodically and harmonically similar and create a cohesive feeling in the music. I find it adventurous and relaxing. The proposal currently is to put these on the surface and split them into day/night depending on their overall tone. Please let me know what you think.
