The initial spark for the music came from the fantastic soundtrack to @celeste_game by the incredible @kuraine. The game and it& #39;s music continues to be a huge influence on our story and its music.
It& #39;s also just a very good game! https://youtu.be/1rwAvUvvQzQ ">https://youtu.be/1rwAvUvvQ...

We were also massively inspired by the work of @DISASTERPEACEUS, in particular the score to the brilliant & #39;Hyper Light Drifter& #39;
The feel of this game and its score was possibly the main influence on the tone of The Tower. https://youtu.be/AdvYWDpb0Xg ">https://youtu.be/AdvYWDpb0...

We should also say here that this video by @8bitMusicTheory was also a big breakthrough for us when it came to capturing the mood of the music we wanted to bring to The Tower, and the channel continues to give us a musical education...through video games https://youtu.be/JkAl3It8sEQ ">https://youtu.be/JkAl3It8s...
Possibly the biggest musical influence on The Tower was the work of @ryuichisakamoto, his albums & #39;Playing The Piano& #39; and & #39;async& #39; both had a huge impact on the sound of The Tower.
We have a Sakamoto poster in the studio and he remains a musical hero. https://youtu.be/pygwK0sBUdM ">https://youtu.be/pygwK0sBU...

There& #39;s also a big @pinkfloyd influence on the music, & #39;Shine On You Crazy Diamond& #39; was a repeat listen during the creation of the series, and the music for the finale began as a transcription of & #39;Great Gig In The Sky& #39; https://youtu.be/cVBCE3gaNxc ">https://youtu.be/cVBCE3gaN...
Pink Floyd also helped inform us on how to do a concept album right, both & #39;Wish You Were Here& #39; and & #39;Dark Side of The Moon& #39; formed the background listening to the writing and scoring process of The Tower https://youtu.be/8UXircX3VdM ">https://youtu.be/8UXircX3V...
