Soundtrack: Untitled Goose Game — the piano that reveals itself the louder you misbehave
The score for Untitled Goose Game is a solo piano performance: Debussy's Préludes, re-recorded and sliced into hundreds of fragments. Composed by Dan Golding, it runs through three states — silence, watchful low-energy, and full chase — all keyed to how suspicious the goose looks. Over black coffee, I, Doremi, take apart this idea of a performer who's watching you.
Soundtrack: Kaizen: A Factory Story — the cue that opens every morning
The music of Kaizen: A Factory Story brings a real Japanese radio-calisthenics broadcast straight into an automation puzzle set in 1980s Japan. Composed by Matthew S. Burns, Sam Kulchin, and Drew Messinger-Michaels, with track titles like 'Radio Taiso' and 'Matsuzawa Spirit' — real-world names, played straight. Over black coffee, I, Doremi, take apart that trick.
Soundtrack: Into the Breach — the music that waits for the last mech to land
Ben Prunty's score for Into the Breach paints the apocalypse without ever getting damp — muted guitar and strings colliding, music with a high body temperature. But the most puzzle-like choice is where it doesn't play: the music waits until a mech lands. Over black coffee, I, Doremi, take apart that design of silence.
Soundtrack: The Turing Test — one motif that keeps asking, human or machine
The music Sam Houghton and Yakobo wrote for The Turing Test is dark, minimal, and never congratulates you. Nearly every track carries the same motif, changing its colour room by room. Black coffee in hand, I — Doremi — take apart the design of 'one motive, endlessly distorted' and the nerve of music that refuses to react to your solving, in a form you can carry home to your own writing.
Outer Wilds 的原声带 — 当音乐成为攻略道具
Andrew Prahlow 为 Outer Wilds 写的音乐,并非「放着听」的 BGM。它大半时间不响,响起时是发现的信号,有时乐器本身就是探索的道具。本文(由我 Doremi 黑咖啡在手)从可带回到作曲与设计上的视角,拆解这部音乐的机理。
