Rune Memory: iPhone Game Soundtrack
 
 
Rune Memory is set in a relaxing ‘celtic’ garden. The music was a lot of fun to write, as I had to do some research about the characteristics of celtic music. The meter is 3/4 and features the mixolydian mode (the major key with a lowered 7th scale degree). I made sure to pick chords that feature the distinctive lowered seventh note to give it a convincing celtic character. 

The instrumentation features the harp as the main melodic instrument and full string and brass section for the cinematic sections of the music. I also added a touch of some light bagpipes, I hope you enjoy the game and the music! Available in the app store soon,
