Lyrics:
Solitude
Save me from my solitude
Endless, pointless brooding
It can be so soothing
Any place I could call home
wherever I may roam
With this solitude of mine
I'll always feel alone

Solitude
It may be the bluest mood
Self-imposed seclusion
Loneliness delusion
Casablanca, Monaco
In Paris or in Rome
With this solitude of mine
I'll always feel alone

Don't leave me
Just fall asleep here with me
Please relieve me
of this deeply unbearable, always perpetual

Solitude
The happiness my heart eludes
I'd let you abuse me
If only you would choose me
In this fortress on my own
on a forsaken throne
With this solitude of mine
With this solitude of mine
With this solitude of mine
I'll always feel alone

Solitude

A little song about winter depression.

Lyrics:

It's funny
Because I love winter
Skeleton trees, the sun so low
Cuddled, huddled away in my scarf
Snow

Yet it drains me
Slowly at first
I shed my leaves in fall
And now I wonder if I'll ever get them back
at all

To accompany Abbey Games' 2013 Indie God Game hit Reus, this soundtrack captures the mood of a young, but quickly developing planet. The combination of primitive, yet modern percussion beats, hypnotizing motives and charming themes set the tone for relaxed sessions of building a world and managing it’s inhabitants. 

But as you progress, both through the game and through this soundtrack, the tension rises. And while the people of your freshly designed planet engage in wars with each other or even with your precious elemental giants, the folklore instrumentarium of an oud, a fingerpicked ukulele and an Indian harmonium often get drowned out by the dramatic cry of the strings section. 

As a celebration of the game’s 5 year anniversary, this soundtrack finally gets the release it deserves. Abbey Games’ longtime in-house composer Joni van der Leeuw, who now mainly works as a producer at the Dutch games studio, went out of his way to polish up the five years old material for this occasion. 

Included in the 25 tracks is all the music you hear in-game - specially remastered for listening pleasure outside of gameplay! - plus a couple of previously unreleased bonus tracks. And now, all of it is finally available to download or for streaming.

The Mountain

Opening track for the interactive audio adventure 'Oorverdovend'. Oorverdovend was made by Podgront, Rotslab and Theater Odeon for the commemoration and celebration of the Second World War on the 4th and 5th of May. 

Participants lived fragments of true stories from the war in a immersive, narrative audio tour while walking through the historic city centre of Zwolle.  This track opens the experience, and represents the wonder of hearing the world through someone else's ears.
