One of the pieces I have been writing for Original Sound Version is called Game Soundtracks For Your Soul, where I look back at some of my favorite moments in video game music. With Obduction, I could wholly focus on the music. It has been a really fun ride and nice to be able to just focus on composing, not like during the making of the first two Myst games where I had a lot of responsibilities besides music. That’s when I became more excited about his vision for Obduction, the idea of being involved and what the game could potentially become. I took a look at some of the things they were doing, and listened to some of Rand’s ideas about the project. Over time Rand continued to push for me to do the music and he can be a little persuasive.

At some point in those early discussions, Rand asked: “What do you think about doing the music for the game?” Which I knew was much more of a commitment than playing the lead role, and I outright told him: “No.” At that time I didn’t know the full details of the project beyond what Kickstarter backers knew from the campaign. I kicked in a little bit for that campaign and said that I would play the lead role in the game, and at that time we weren’t talking about music at all. My first involvement came when my brother Rand Miller did all the initial work to get the Kickstarter Campaign up and running. I came on for this project because I was excited about it and thought it would be a lot of fun. This was touched on briefly in Rolling Stone Magazine but can you tell us a about how you ended up coming back to Cyan Worlds to score Obduction? Obduction marks your return to composing music at Cyan Worlds after an absence since scoring both Myst and Riven. Read on for our extensive interview and listen to tracks from the score that formed part of our discussion. He also answers a question I’ve had for years about the Cyan introduction music. In our interview Robyn Miller provides insight on how he became a part of the project, his approach to scoring the game, and his favorite tracks on the album. Robyn Miller composed the music for Obduction and he graciously took the time to talk to Original Sound Version about composing the score. Last week we reported on the release of the soundtrack to Obduction a new game from Cyan Worlds, the creators of the original classic games Myst and Riven.
