They did this stunt at the Olympics opening ceremony.
People have played actually burning pianos (usually old, crap ones) but getting good tunes out of the instrument is not compatible with heating the strings that much, they detune and snap. I think they just used a keyboard built into an otherwise empty piano case with some gasoline.It’s especially impressive when the indie game developer themselves make the bangers.
Toby Fox cooking a fire soundtrack and then making a game to have something to put it into
Sans boss fight theme is just chiefs kiss perfect👌
ConcernedApe comes to mind. I think he has actually said that a big reason why he made his game is so people would listen to his music.
Yeah indie game studios be making better games then multi billion dollar triple a companys
Lena Raine, is that you?
Exactly what I thought when I saw this. The Celeste soundtrack is so good - I’m not good at platform games but the music kept me going. The story was great too, but I’m not sure I would’ve stuck with the game if the first steps (see what I did there?) didn’t have me humming along.
This is basically how Ixion went. The game didn’t need a soundtrack to go this hard, but it absolutely put it over the top.
How has nobody mentioned Chris Christodoulou (Risk of Rain), Studio Pixel (Cave Story), Ben Prunty (FTL, Into the Breach), Christopher Larkin (Hollow Knight), or Andrew Prahlow (Outer Wilds) yet‽
I’m also quite partial to Craig Barnes (Streets of Rogue) and A Shell in the Pit (Full Metal Furies & Chicory).
First answer to me is Chris Christodoulou, who did everything for Risk of Rain and Risk of Rain 2. The man knows how to let ambient vibes build to boss music
it’s unparalleled for me - just so immensely good.

Celeste OST is one of my favorites, Lena raine absolutely cooked
Instead of burning the music to the CD, he burned the CD
So basically it’s Andrew Hulshult.
I recommend Dusk to people just for the music.
I mean, the game is good too, but the soundtrack just goes so hard
Saving this post for all the awesome music recommendations
One of my all time favorite OSTs for indie games would be Crosscode’s OST.
All the songs that Laura Shigihara has worked on are great too.
No mention of Firewatch so I’ll be the first to say it, it caught me off gaurd how good it was.
Subnautica - Abandon Ship
Techtonica - almost all the tracks
