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.
I had to stop working on a detailed response to your music suggestions when bad news reached me. It is possible that I will only be able to work on this response in a limited way for the next 2 weeks or so.
We will see.
But I’ll say this much in advance: I think the majority of the music you suggested is suitable for Moon or Mars.
As mentioned, a more detailed response should follow.
At the moment, things are going better than expected for me. Unfortunately, that could change in the next few days. I’ll just have to see. But thank you for asking.
