Oh, wow!
Nobody who listened to the previous work of Darren Korb for SuperGiantGames should be surprised that the Soundtrack of Pyre is some unique stuff. Quality in general is astonishing and something the studio can be very proud of. As advertised on the store page, this collection contains three (Bastion had one, Transistor two) albums: The main OST as you can listen to ingame, which already got double-CD-lenght. Then the BlackMandolin, which features some tracks that don´t appear in every playthrough, but are depending on your decisions. And last the WhiteMandolin, which features acoustic versions that are calm and very suiting to listen to while working. If it weren´t a game soundtrack, that Mandoline alone would probably priced 10$. All three albums are using square cover images, Mandolins with a 1440, regular OST with a 1400 pixel width. Not some upscaled scam, but the real deal. In other words, they are more then sufficient for any of today's usages for printing, media players, VR-CoverArtworkCollections and so on. Okay, so price is incredibly generous. But this has incredible price–performance ratio. So what about the performance? 1st: The Main OST is using the tools of a modern pop production, yet it can still be loved by folks who absolutely hate modern pop. That is quite an achievement... (was the case with the previous OSTs as well) 2nd: There is one real standout, which gets one of the most precious awards in gaming OST history: The guitar tracks Downriver (Main OST) and Downside Ballade (White Mandoline) are featuring the spirit of the legendary Tristam Theme from Diablo and managed to clearly surpass it. Yes! 3rd: The soundtrack paints a real vast picture, the picture of a huge world. Yet at the same time it feels like one journey, one work. It is a collection of very different stuff, but the interconnections are deep. DEEP, not clear, thus brilliant. Is there anything missing? The voicework isn´t as rememberable as in Transistor. No FLAC. That´s all.
