2025 Compositional Demo Reel for Video Games

2025 Composition Reel - Aaron Busch

Smooth groove 79

This piece feels like the start of a grand adventure, the moment the map finally unfolds and the world opens up before you. The melody moves with a sense of curiosity and hope, carried by sweeping strings and bright brass. It captures that feeling of stepping into the unknown, where every horizon promises a new discovery. It’s the kind of theme you’d hear while setting out across a vast open world in an RPG.

Sky Sailor's Atlas

“Waning Light” captures the quiet collapse that follows a villain’s downfall. The melody drifts through fading strings and solemn piano, carrying a sense of loss and reflection.

Waning Light

This track begins with quiet confidence. As it builds, the orchestra swells into something grand and unstoppable, capturing the feeling of a world rising together in hope. It’s bold, radiant, and full of motion.

Sunstone

This piece sets the stage before the adventure begins, that calm moment when the title fades in and the world quietly comes to life. Gentle strings and soft chords carry a sense of wonder and anticipation, like the story is waiting just beyond the horizon.

The Enchanted Forest

The King’s Ruin is written as a final confrontation, powerful, tragic, and unrelenting. The orchestra drives forward with pounding percussion, dark brass, and soaring strings that carry both fury and sorrow. It’s the sound of a fallen kingdom and a battle that means everything. Victory and loss intertwined.
