As the backdrop to one of the darkest games ever made, what Stuart has achieved here is stunning, not only as a soundtrack but as a stand-alone experience outside of the game.
The incredible mixture of electronic music with the Gothic chants and pulsing percussion makes this one of the most adrenaline-pumping albums I have ever listened to. From classical strings to synthetic whirring it's how Stuart plays in this symphonic playground that will haunt you long after this album finishes spinning. Hauntingly Baroque in its style, Darkest Dungeon is just sheer brilliance. Around every corner is a synth-laden orchestration of heart-pounding percussion, twinkling strings, and blasting horns that will leave you looking over your shoulder at every climactic beat. Relentless is the word I would use to describe this soundtrack.
Darkest Dungeon is just one of those albums that defines a career, and what it represents is the total embodiment of Stuart as a musician. Stuart's eclectic and unique background in music has paved the way for him to create one of the most unique, and dynamic horror soundtracks in the indie game music scene to date. Best known as the bass guitarist and keyboardist for the experimental rock band The Tea Party, Stuart has also built a household name for himself in the video game music industry for his work on the Prince of Persia series and most recently Darkest Dungeon. Stuart Chatwood is an award-winning artist, composer, and producer based out of Vancouver, British Columbia. Gather your party and venture forth if you dare… this one is not for the faint of heart. Pressed on black and transparent red vinyl by Ghost Ramp, this haunting soundtrack to Red Hook Studios’ hit dungeon crawling roguelike is here to chill you to your literal bones. Delve deep under the family manor this week with Darkest Dungeon by Stuart Chatwood.
