![]() Used when solving the final two puzzles in Amateria, "The Wheels of Wonder" is very haunting and my favorite piece in the game. It beautifully complements a vision of the purple clouds and ocean with the red pagodas and the store. "Theme from Amateria" sounds quite ambient too with its heavenly choral overtones, but it's quite strong too. The former is particularly effective, using percussion, ethnic instruments, and electronic overtones to give a tense, echoing, yet almost serene sound. "Saavedro's Theme" and "A Heartbeat Away" are mainly heard while searching for a way to get into the observatory. This is heard at the beginning, and you can definitely tell where Atrus is supposed to be talking, because that part is just repeated verses. "Opening Titles" is a shorter version of the main theme with a slightly different instrument mix. While not personally appealing to me, it still serves as a powerful introduction to the soundtrack. It is a magical composition with its blend of orchestra, chorus, and ethnic instruments, but overly labours a rather simple melodic idea. It's not used in the game in place of a shortened version at the end. The soundtrack opens with an extended version of the "Main Theme". The soundtrack is a perfect complement to the game, both haunting yet uplifting, and also serves as a strong stand-alone listen. The music in the game can be easily heard, and, if you've played the game, you can really see where the music is placed in the game while listening to it.

Key tracks include: “Lost Planet 3 Theme,” “The Ice Planet,” “The Vorgg,” and “The Forgotten.” Presented as Volume 2, Wall’s cinematic score is a blend of sci-fi orchestral and acoustic themes, spine-tingling atmosphere, and synthesized ambient textures, which serves to support the game’s compelling narrative, mysterious environments and epic action sequences. Key tracks include: “Rattlesnake,” “A Long Way Home,” “Ballad of Jim Peyton,” and “Outlaw.” Joining him on this unique sci-fi musical adventure, Wall formed and recorded a band of celebrated artists including composer Bear McCreary (Battlestar Galactica) on accordion, guitarist Craig Stull (Firefly) on dobro guitar, drummer Joe Travers (Zappa Plays Zappa), vocalist Cindy Shapiro (Myst III: Exile), and cinema’s foremost harmonica player, Tommy Morgan, amongst other talented musicians. The challenge was to make it real, but add just enough elements and context to make it seem like it is music from the future.”Īs well as composing and producing the Alien Country Music, Wall performs acoustic, baritone and electric guitars on all the tracks. This is the music Jim Peyton listens to when he’s on mission in his rig – the music his wife Grace, back on Earth, sends him to remind him of home. “It would be the main character’s mix tape. “When Spark and Capcom asked me to write alien country as roughly half of the soundtrack to Lost Planet 3, I was really intrigued,” enthuses Jack Wall. Volume 1 features country and rock instrumentation combined with organic drum and percussion elements, infused with modern synthetic elements to create a country music of the future. ![]() The Lost Planet 3 Original Soundtrack is presented in two volumes to reflect the distinct musical approaches for the game’s soundtrack.
