WESTWORLD SCORING COMPETITION

In 2020, Spitfire Audio teamed up with HBO’s Westworld to bring an exclusive competition, judged by the show’s creators.

 

When I was a teenager, I had this video game called "Swiv 3D" about an helicopter destroying things. What was great about this game was the ability to switch between musical background: Classical (with, of course, Ride of the Walkyries) or Psytrance (with some good old Hallucinogen). So when I saw the sequence with music, my younger me just asked: "why not switch the music from Classical to Psytrance, like in Swiv 3D?" And that's how I got the idea for this cue. The result is a bit different from what I do normally, but it was fun to explore new musical territories.

 

This piece was created for the composition contest, it was NOT commissioned or used by HBO or the producers of Westworld.
