Dream Realms – Exploration Music
"Dream Realms" is all about atmospheric exploration. The music mostly covers lo-fi melodic warm synthesizer calmness while exploring the unknown. It has that playful and dreamy pixel game charm.

This music pack celebrates melodic, warm, cozy, ambient, a hint of melancholic but also uplifting exploration while also providing music for rare moments of conflict and battle.
I think it would fit all kinds of genres (Rogue likes and lites, RPG, Platformer, Visual Novel etc.). It does not focus on combat but there are some more conflict oriented tracks provided. It is best to check the audio demos to see if it fits the aesthetic of your game. Maybe you are in for a surprise.
Though the music contains a lot of variation, which helps to distinguish and give character to different areas or levels in your game, there is a common thread that ties everything together. The music contains a mix of dreamy synth atmospheres, rock guitars, cozy beats and more organic string arrangements.
The loops are designed to have variation and development to avoid stale repetition. Either use them as simple loops as is or implement them in a more elaborate music system (e.g. Wwise or Fmod).
I designed most of the sounds on an analogue synthesizer specifically for this project. My old and dusty piano and my guitars show their character. An old FM synthesizer from the 80ies adds clear bell sounds.
My goal was to create something that has character and feels human made without overly processing everything to perfection.
The tracks are provided in 2 versions:
Version 1: Seamless loops for game implementation (Lower volume more headroom for other sound design)
Version 2: Tracks with a natural ending and commercial loudness to be used for game trailers or otherwise. (Album Version)
