I want to also share with you a quick note about the track "Our Painted Family" and the manor themes:
The project I’ve imagined around these tracks is taking time to complete so I’ll kindly ask for your patience before these songs are released on streaming platforms.
I’d love to share them with you in the way I imagined them when composing!🎺
That said, it was important for me to include them in the physical editions of the OST:
- You’ll be able to listen to "Our Painted Family" on the vinyl version of the soundtrack!
- "Honeymoon in Lumière", "Clea! Don’t Pull Your Sister’s Hair!", "Aline’s Glasshouse", "Alicia’s Birthday Party" and "Our Painted Family" are available on the full CDs edition of the soundtrack!
Thank you so much for your patience!

I also want to give a huge thank-you to all the incredible musicians who took part in this soundtrack, I’m deeply grateful to have shared my journey with them.
Thank you @SandfallGames, @Kepler_Interact and @Laced_audio for working so hard with me to bring this physical edition of the soundtrack to life. 🙏
I also want to make a huge thank you to Nicholas Maxson-Francombe for creating the beautiful artworks of the soundtrack, vinyl and CD boxset.
It was a passionate and long work to create these physical editions, and it was magic for me to discover the incredible visuals Nicholas brought to life.🎨

And to you, the players and listeners: thank you from the bottom of my heart. It's a profound joy to share the world of Clair Obscur with you.

Thank you for everything.

Lorien

Thank you for the inspiration @Shunwun. I'm gonna miss seeing you perform but I'll never stop being moved by the body of work you left behind. 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿

Yesterday, we lost a music legend and, more importantly, a beautiful, luminous human being. Shaun Martin touched so many people during his life and through the beautiful immortality of music, will continue to do so. There’s so much that can be said but words can’t do justice. RIP

[Sarah Drasner @sarah_edo]

Reminder that we all don’t have to hard-mode everything. You can make traction step by step in a reasonable and methodical way. Willpower is a finite resource.

Saying “fergalicious” when I mean “Kafkaesque”

[nigel @not_nigel]

@taylor_atx You are correct 😊

[nigel @not_nigel]

It looks like I paid the sky to do this

[nigel @not_nigel]

@taylor_atx I can see that! Though I'm afraid this picture was taken elsewhere. Care to guess again?

@jrrickard @kvnmccann Open invitation 😊

[nigel @not_nigel]

Today the free recording sessions at Studio Greenhouse with @kvnmccann during SXSW started. I'm gonna be using this thread to post photos. I don't have the capacity to collect my thoughts but I'll do that later. Enjoy.
