Music to Level Up Your Day: Xenoblade Chronicles X, Part 2
Posted: Tue, 11 Aug 03:09:12
[hr]
Game: Xenoblade Chronicles X
Composer: Hiroyuki Sawano
Singers: Aimee Blackschleger, Cyua, Mika Kobayashi, mpi, Sayulee,
North American Release Date: December 4, 2015
In the year 2054, a galactic war forces humanity to flee Earth aboard spaceships dubbed "arks". After being pursued by extraterrestrials for two years, the "White Whale" ark makes a crash landing on the uncharted planet Mira. Several stasis pods are ejected during the crash, of which the protagonist Cross is one of the only survivors. Rescued by Elma, the leader of BLADE (Builders of the Legacy After the Destruction of Earth), Cross is inducted into the organization and eventually earns the right to pilot a mechanical suit called a "Skell".
Hiroyuki Sawano created the music based on selections provided by the game developer. Broad orchestral elements were made on a computer, but he was given free rein to add in smaller layers and elements where he saw fit. Music copyists were employed to create the scores for each individual instrument in order to save time.

I don't know much about musical theory, nor am I a musically inclined person. However, I do love to listen to video game soundtracks. They can be a powerful listening experience in their own right, or be as evocative as the scores composed for film. I have seen and contributed to many community threads about great soundtracks over the years, and originally had a GeekList for sharing my personal favorite video game scores. For management reasons, I am moving that GeekList to a blog. Each post will feature music tracks from a single game title, or series/franchise in some rare cases.[hr]

Not a Mythic Monday- but getting there!

We're looking at a Mythic Tuesday this week, which will also include last Friday's Weekly Updates... Sorry for the delay! I'm up to writing the finale after a few hiccups earlier today...
In other news, I'm all caught up on non-BGG socials and I've got my subscription notices here on the Geek down to 300 (from 600+ this morning). Caturday is also closer to functional.
Happy Monday and happy playing!
