about

How could we produce a space-themed album without music from Destiny? I feel like the horn section in the game represents the voices of the guardians - so many heroic moments in the game were accented by them, so I knew we had to give it our own take. It was really hard to narrow down which piece I would arrange. I played a lot more of Destiny 1 than I have of 2 (a lot of which was played with our logo designer Henry and his partner), so I was leaning toward something from the original game. Since Sepiks Prime has turned into a recurring enemy, and the track is honestly such a blast, it became the easy choice (plus I cheated a bit and quoted The Traveler off the top). Other almost-chosen tracks include Untold Legends, End of the Line, and Eye of the Gate Lord. So what about the arrangement? Well in Destiny 1 the original piece is very orchestral, and in Destiny 2 it's very metal - so I thought: why can't we have both at the same time? We're always so pleased to collab with Ro Panuganti, and of course it made sense musically because we needed somebody to take on some of the weirder extended rhythm bits and arpeggios that aren't very idiomatic to brass playing. One of my favourite things about collaborating with Ro is that it's not just a contribution of a performance or a recording, we talk through not only the arrangement, but also the video. We send edits back and forth to one another, and I feel like Thomas and Ro have really made a dynamic and exciting edit. When I first set out to arrange this I was a bit worried that it would come out too flat or boring, since the original piece is repetitive with a sort of verse-chorus-verse-chorus thing going on. Moving the different parts around the different brass players and having dynamic performances from both Rahul (drum) and Ro really brought things to life. I couldn't be happier with how this turned out. I leave you with the immortal words of the O.G. (original ghost) Peter Dinklage: That wizard came from the moon.
