"The Last of Us 2's menu screen is haunting, and I decided to write some music inspired by it. It's essentially the sound of a boat floating in water, so I sampled it and tried to get a guitar tone reminiscent of Jeff Buckley's Hallelujah, this is the result. I think it's quite peaceful, albeit somber." The initial version vas very uncompressed and jerky, middle section in particular. I've tried to keep the same vibe throughout now and avoid more sudden, dynamic changes.
