    Lunar Lander Beyond

    Redy to Launch

    Guide a roster of colorful pilots, eclectic advisors and state-of-the-art landers through a taxing series of missions. Deliver cargo, retrieve resources, and rescue stranded pilots as you navigate a mysterious universe of moons and planets.
    Lunar Lander Beyond’s music was a mix of old school Electronic music (such as Tangerine Dream) and retro Videogame music with a more modern sensitivity. The OST tries to play with nostalgia while creating something new and fresh. Due to the lack of music in the original game, the most challenging part was creating that sense/feeling of nostalgia. Finally games such as Metroid Prime, DOOM, Metal Gear, among many others were the more direct videogame musical reference we tried to focused on to help the game’s music accomplish everything we wanted and were asked to.
