The Invitation

Somnus Gradus

This in-game loop accompanies Evara’s Grotto, the second major exploration zone in the conceptual game, Liminality. The player descends from the forest into a network of cavernous chambers: humid, humming, and dense with memory. The space feels ancient and sacred, but also slightly wrong: as if something meant to stay buried is starting to stir.

The music reflects this deepening tension. The first iteration of the loop presents the base layer: subtle piano motifs, resonant low pulses, and fragile ambient threads, suggesting the protagonist’s cautious steps and quiet observation. As the player progresses, a secondary vertical layer activates: adding rhythmic textures, darker harmonic shifts, and faint, metallic echo trails. 

This layer emerges organically, triggered by intensity: heightened exploration, narrative progress, or proximity to a small boss encounter hidden in the far chamber.

Evara’s Grotto isn’t just a level, it’s a memory sink. The further in you go, the less certain you are of what's around the corner. 


Evara's Grotto

Pianist | Composer | Musicologist 

Born in California, based in the Netherlands.

I create contemporary classical music that blends structured form with expressive detail, from solo pieces to full orchestral works.
As a performer, I appear both solo and in collaboration with artists across Europe and the U.S.

Current projects include Music for Empty Spaces and performances of my piano concerto: performed by myself in the U.S. and scheduled for another performance this October at the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam.

Dark, melancholy classical meets deep, modern, cinematic beauty.
