DESCENT OF A MAN-MADE GOD

Title: The Descent of a Man-Made God

Genres: Metal, synthwave, ambient, breakcore 

Submission for Ost Composing Jam #6 

The theme for this ost composing jam this time around was tick tock, and I immediately thought of a countdown idea for my imaginary soundtrack. The idea I came up with was Man-made God. I made 3 songs around the idea that humans have created an ai/robot thing that gains a consciousness and views itself as a higher being than its creators and wants to destroy  the world and stuff. Its a pretty loose vague idea but this was the main inspiration for these tracks 

Track 1: The End is Nigh

This track is a dynamic battle theme used to establish the end of the world is coming. The sound I was inspired by was artists like carpenter brut, northlane, mick gordon and hakita. Using alot of glitchy breakbeats, heavy guitars and soaring synths. I included samples of a clock ticking signifying the countdown. 

Track 2:  The Descent of a Man-Made God

This track is essentially the buildup to the 3rd track Godslayer. I wanted this track to be super ambient and haunting similar to the silent hill soundtracks. I used a sample of a robot which kinda sounds like its laughing which fit my theme perfectly. 

Track 3:  Godslayer 

Track 3 is the boss theme against the Man-Made God. I repeated some of the motifs in the other two tracks like the clock ticking and robot laughing. But I mainly just wanted this song to be as chaotic and heavy as possible to make for a fun cathartic boss fight ost.
