Name: Liberating Athenas by Michael McCann
Duration: 4 min 22 s
Description: Track 3 from Act 1 of the Borderlands 3 original soundtrack. Composed and produced by Michael McCann.

Crypthios present us his second album on Cryo Chamber, an electronic fueled textural environment structure like a soundtrack. Finely detailed layers mix with thumping beats and melancholic melodies.

The deserted beach is a stark contrast to the bustling New City you left behind. The warm sand under your feet feels soft and inviting, and the sound of the waves crashing against the shore is a soothing background hum. The sun is setting, you feel a sense of calm wash over you, but as you move closer to the strange structures on the horizon, the atmosphere shifts.

The coral-like formations pulsate with an otherworldly energy, spewing seawater out of their orifices. The twisted, almost alien creatures that emerge from them move with a hypnotic grace, their every motion both beautiful and menacing. Their presence fills the air with a sense of foreboding, as if you have stumbled upon something that should remain hidden.

You observe from a distance as the night falls, and the creatures become more active, their movements more erratic. As you sneak closer you step on a small coral and draw their interest as they all turn as one motion. Petrified, a smell of honey and sulphur hits you, the world changes color and shape as dimensions shift, they are showing you something.

Recommended for fans of melodic dark ambient, minimal beats and heavy atmospheres
