Description
I wrote this for a game perhaps similar to Cult of the Lamb. I composed both tracks in Logic Pro, and sampled my voice along with other percussive sounds in both tracks.
Heartbeat Ritual - This track originally started off as something that might play on a game over screen, as I could imagine the long forgotten civilisation coming together to mourn your death through song (using voice and pitched percussion such as xylophone). I felt that it was too calming to be a game over track, and so I imagine this being played in a village where the tribe leader has died, and the tribes people are performing a holy ritual.
Thriving Camp - I'm personally less happy with this composition. I imagined it taking place in a much busier and thriving camp where this long forgotten tribe of creatures was living. I used reversed vocal sounds combined with sampling a kalimba from my desk.

Message from the artist
I put this together in a few afternoon for fun :)

Absolutely beautiful piece. The composition is so freaking good - very nostalgic. I loved the mixing and the instrumentation!

Sweet and short little track - connects really nicely together with Heartbeat Ritual. Thanks RedoLedo for your excellent submission!
