Some of the best sound work from gaming in recent memory. You guys made a hell of a team.

Absolutely LOVED you guys' work on the game. I saw you in a few other videos about your work on Hyper Light Drifter and really dig your positive energy. Your love for your craft not only shows in the quality of your work, but your enthusiasm when speaking about it. Looking forward to what you're doing in the future!

great job. love how that atonal, symmetrical scale approach works so well in the background. because it is something that can get quite annoying (as mentioned in this one example you guys couldn't stand anymore, after listening to it again and again) when you focus on. but sets a perfect background: warm, yet unsettling.

Reminds me of the polytonal soundscapes of chrono trigger. weird symphony over cute pixelgraphics.

I love how Rich is so chill while Akash is brimming with energy. They made a great pair for this masterpiece of a game.

Love anything Disasterpiece does. The 'Fez' soundtrack is sublime, and 'It Follows' had one of the best horror soundtracks of this generation. In my humble opinion.

too bad he's not involved in composing the stoundtrack for the new game :/

He has to be the best "showman" out the 20 something GDC talks I've watched. Great presence and presentation.

The work these guys did on HLD is incredible. On a audio / visuals level nothing touches this game. Best sound in a game i've probably had the joy of experiencing.

"Evangeliony" What a great aesthetic

Red seas, enourmous decaying biomechanical constructs, some incomperhensible otherworldly power creeping in from the edge of your awareness, a sense of foreboding inevitibility and isolation.

28:20 love this chord progression so much. The first time I watched the trailer for the game and heard it I knew I had to play this game. Sound design and music have always sort of been the key to my heart for video games.

The sound design and music for this game go beyond so many other titles. It's great to see into the creative process, and it's no surprise that both Akash and Rich came to this project with such integrity and passion.

Chords in the theme - Bb+E / Db+Ab/ Bb7#5#9. Often, when i'm writing, beauty like this disappears amongst the clutching for ideas. Well done Alex for spotting it in amidst all the sketches. It's perfect.

I dig. That symmetrical chromatic ambient electronica works quite well for this...neonpunk zelda...gamething. great art direction to let them create and contribute with their trade and tools.

One of the most useful, open talks I've seen, thank you so much.

I dig these frankenstein sound recording devices he's made

Rich, your Fez soundtrack has played on my commute on the bus over 1,000 times in the last few years. Massive fan, love your work.

I love sound design! Sounds like you guys really have fun

loved the arena mode song !!

Great Impressionistic score, awesome Disasterpeace!

That blood recording was so fucking cool, dude.

Thanks a lot for sharing you experience! You’re awesome!

Disasterpiece is amazing, Fez and It Follows both have incredible soundtracks as well.

Its so good, those talks are so cool

Great artists!

Awesome presentation! Curious what presentation software that was used =)

hey Rich, here's a thought, you could try running off a tape player like you wanted, but when you re-digitize it run it through something like Ableton Live, I remember it having a feature that can identify the rhythm and tempo of the music and then you can re-sync it with other tracks while keeping the sound effect.

That is not what he is talking about. He is saying that if you switch abuptly between two tracks with varying pitch modulation, you'll hear audible phasing (if it is a fade between two tracks), or a pitch jump and ISP (if instantaneous). He could have implemented it in post by creating a tape saturation emulation for whatever audio engine they used but it's not something you can do at ground level without causing yourself more headaches.

Wow, the first piano piece on 7:40 is actually so good shame it’s not somewhere in the game - could’ve made some piano-synth transitions between this and Corruption/Chimera, where synths use it’s first chords But i suppose it was a heavy competition between the tracks to take places in the game ;) Anyways cheers to Rich and Akash - HLD ost is my favourite piece of game music alongside with Austin Wintory’s Banner Saga I was very surprised musically after Panacea trailer (release one) - it instantly became special for me and whole thing only grew more important/inspiring for my own musical journey later on Peace and love to all humanzz, especially to ones crafting beauty ❤️🖤

Very interesting thank you =D

Im. OBSESSED!!!

“There was no micromanagement, which was nice”. Imagine thinking it’s a good idea to micromanage these guys. They’re the best in the business!
