    I'm still so overwhelmed by all the lovely feedback from everyone! Y'all rock \m/ Ty everyone who joined us for this convo at Save & Sound yesterday, and thank you to Danny, BYG, and the film crew for this for being such wonderful hosts when I came through the studio. I'm so glad we got to sit down and chat about the music and the awesome collabs that took place.
    Working on Rift has been such a wild and fun ride and I could not have asked to work with and learn from a better or more supportive team of artists. Can't wait for y'all to hear the rest of the music!

      Awesome job on the music! Glass Cages gives _the feels._ I know you're hearing this a lot, but it's nice to say it personally c:

    What Josie said at 07:21 is, in my opinion, the most amazing aspect of Rift of the Necrodancer’s soundtrack.
    Working on this game was a joy due to how open-minded and excited the whole team was towards us guest composers, creating the best environment for cooking fun and wildly eclectic music.
    If you end up loving the soundtrack a lot once the game is out, it’s important to note that this music was only made possible due to Danny and the Necrodancer team being so good at making us feel seen, valued & trusted as creatives.
    Can’t stress enough how much of a difference this makes!

    Lots of stuff to say.
    1. Danny explaining how a 1/6 beat works for us mortals is so sweet to me. My monkey brain just went 'okay, so this one doesn't pay taxes and runs faster'
    2. Overthinker. It's not that bad when you practice the zombies patterns. Don't overthink it.
    2.1 I wonder if the fact that the muscle man has a ring is important for the story or if it's mostly a design decision.
    3. Glass cages absolutely rocks! But there's something about Amalgamaniac that personally clicks so hard to me.
    Hoping for full release to break my fingers and get some confidence for impossible songs ❤

      "Muscle man" is Hephaestus from the lobby! In greek myth he's god of the forge and despite being the "ugliest" god, he's married to Aphrodite.

    This is my first time hearing of it. As I watched I thought "bro, only 3 buttons? This is gonna be too easy and boring, shitty fast."
    ... then I saw the jumping bats and realized these are crypt of the necromancer monsters. The notes ***move?!*** AND THEIR MULTI NOTES OR HOLD NOTES ARE THE SHIELD SKELETONS?!? BRO THIS IS INSANELY COOL AND INSANELY DIFFICULT. WHERE THE DIFFICULTY COMES FROM PARSING THE INCREASINGLY COMPLEX MOVEMENTS INSTEAD OF JUST ADDING 16 BUTTONS AND BRAGGING ABOUT HOW HARD IT IS!!!

    I loved Amalgamaniac and Ravevenge but having the switch tone with Glass Cages and Overthinker made me focus on a lot of tracks equally and I loved jumping back and forth listening and learning each tracks.
    And I went only for the interview and learned a ton about the creation and how the composer mindset was and to top it all you guys just showed us even more content !
    Can’t wait for the release !

    The demo was my first rhythm game and i had an absolute blast playing it. Too bad the impossible difficulties aside from Disco Disaster is too hard for my brain to comprehend.
    And I dont usually buy games, but this has me hooked.

    Cannot wait. And I know this may not be a good time to ask this, is cadence being in Quest of Dungeons (3DS, Wii U, Switch, and a few other devices) an official colab? Honestly I wouldn’t even be surprised if you never heard of the game before lol.
