简介
Dawnspire was the first and only commercial release by five-man team Silent Grove Studios, and one of the earliest computer games in the mobile online battle arena (MOBA) genre. An indie game before the rise of the indies, Dawnspire was an ambitious project to be funded entirely by the developers. The ambition is perhaps most strikingly clear in the soundtrack for the game, which on a non-existent budget still managed to features live orchestral instruments and choir from over 20 classical performers recorded at the College of Music in Stockholm. The music draws inspiration from earlier fantasy games such as Morrowind and Diablo, but with a more ambient and dreamy touch in the in-game passages. On occasion it has been described as a form of "musique concrete", utilizing synthesizers and musical sound effects, from car doors to kitchen items. The sounds accompany the musicians throughout long dynamic and self-varying montages driven by the game's audio engine. Here, the music has been mixed as intended by the composer. To hear the original dynamic soundtrack, you would have to join a small but dedicated cult following still occasionally duking it out in the game on home-run servers.
