The composer of the Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 soundtrack, Lorien Testard, and Singer Alice Duport-Percier are featured in a new 13 minute long “behind the music” video.
In the video description, the team explains: “Explore the creative process behind the emotional and evocative music that brings the game’s world to life, from Lorien Testard’s longstanding love of video game soundtracks to the journey Alice has taken to bring the music of Expedition 33 to life.”
Check out the new video, below:
Once a year, the Paintress wakes and paints upon her monolith. Paints her cursed number. And everyone of that age turns to smoke and fades away. Year by year, that number ticks down and more of us are erased. Tomorrow she’ll wake and paint “33.” And tomorrow we depart on our final mission – Destroy the Paintress, so she can never paint death again.
We are Expedition 33.
