"You see a hulking figure approaching, skin tanned and scarred from countless journeys. Draped in worn crimson cloth and carrying a heavy spear adorned with strange symbols, his deep-set eyes seem to scan the horizon as if constantly in search of something. This weathered traveller walks alongside strange beasts—creatures foreign to these lands with thick fur and mighty tusks."
Hey folks,
Today's track combines Chinese and African instrumentation with solo violin into a nomadic theme fit for whatever NPCs your party might meet in the wilds. I wrote this track using this image as inspiration. When using art to inspire my music, I usually look for images of landscapes, so it was interesting to do the same but for character art instead. The result is something with a little more quirk and character than some of my usual music. I'll definitely repeat the process again!
The art used in the video is from the amazing James RPG Art.
Bard Tier supporters have access to one alternate version:
Fast Strings: way quicker with some of the instruments replaced by scratchy solo strings for a more intense, combat worthy feel
30 second preview attached!
Thanks all!
