The 4th album of Ukrainian multi-instrumentalist MUNRUTHEL will immerse you in the fantastic world of GOTHIC even without its game space. Each track is composed for a definite game location or situation, that’s why listening to this soundtrack you can join tense battles against a giant monster or orcish hordes, feel chilling horror of old cemeteries with their revived dangerous dwellers, lose your way in the depths of the untrodden Forest, sitting on the ancient ruins recall fallen warriors and brave campaigns in days of old, drink some rum with pirates in a tavern, and take a rest among the songs of birds and Nature’s rampage in hunters’ camp... The music won’t leave indifferent either computer gaming geeks, or just admirers of quality atmospheric music. Welcome to the World of the Dark Saga! Preface from the Author : It is my first encounter with creation of soundtracks, although I’ve got an idea itself, concerning a soundtrack for a game or a film, for a long time. My first albums were namely in the vein of sympho ambient with the main criterion for creation of images and mood in a listener’s mind. No doubt, it helped me a lot to create this Dark Saga addon’s soundtrack for “Gothic 2: Night Of The Raven”. I’d like to thank effusively the following persons: the creators of SAGA TEAM addon, and directly Dmitriy Romanovskiy and Dmitriy Litvinov, as well as Sergey “AR” Pavlov and Evgen “Chur” Kucherov for acquaintance with SAGA TEAM, Svyatoslav Gladkov for good management, Olga “RedMaiden” Lyashenko for inspiration, Ann Merkulova for photographs and last but not least Marcelo Vasco for great artwork.
