"Constriction Redux" (Original Composition)

Original composition by Noam Bergman

Copyright 2011 Noam Bergman, all rights reserved.


This piece was composed for the "Hansel and Gretelbot" level series, and is heard during the final boss fight in Level 7. The final confrontation between Hansel and the evil witch has finally arrived. Hansel is pitted against the witch and her dragon, and Hansel also must keep his sister - trapped in a cage on a conveyor belt - from reaching the oven. It is under this pressure of time and danger that Hansel must defeat both dragon and witch.

"Constriction Redux", as the name suggests, plays on the themes from "Constriction", while adding a new layer of intensity. The feeling of 'constriction' has come to a climax and the result is a fierce desire to defeat the enemy once and for all in this final confrontation. We still feel that incessant ticking of the clock, mirroring the urgency of time in the boss fight as Hansel must keep pushing back his caged sister in order to keep her away from the fiery.

I composed this piece using the "Music Sequencer" within the video game LittleBigPlanet 2 (for Playstation 3). I recorded each track directly from my Playstation 3 into my computer, and then mixed the piece using my usual software on my computer.

The instruments available in the LittleBigPlanet 2 music sequencer are not very high in quality, but using Reverb, EQ, and other plugins/effects, I was able to improve the quality of the sounds.


Enjoy!
