Artimus Bena, is, among other things, the composer for the music in Fenrir Lunraris's Vikings of Midgard, as well as the composer for Friend's <a href="http://castleparadox.com/gamelist-displ ... Missing</a>

(Dang, I wish knew how to contact Friend, and could talk them into doing an Android port of Missing. I bet it would only require very minimal changes)

He's also one of the crazy customer characters based on OHR users featured in Entrepreneur: The Beginning.

Ahh, maybe I had seen the name in a credit somewhere. That makes sense.

So, you got tired of waiting for a reply on CP!

(Well, almost all of the soundtrack, I see.)

Nice. I was wondering where all those tracks could be! That HDD crashed at some point.

Your best bet is probably to talk to Rinku (@rinkuhero on Twitter). If they're not still in contact, he should at least know where to find him. Friend might be going by Orchard-Lafayette again these days.

Hi again, Bena. Old faces popping out of the woodwork lately.

It might, but the last I heard of O-L he might have gone back to his home country to run the family business. Rinku is your best bet.

(Oh, so I read this here. On the RPGC website it was also mentioned that Orchard went back to Indonesia, though it wasn't clear if he disappeared or stopped working on games after that. He's credited for work on Saturated Dreamers, but that's been in production for over 10 years.)

In other news, I just realised that the Vikings of Midgard Soundtrack page was very incomplete, so I expanded it, but I don't know who most of the authors are. Two of the tracks are from SoJ but I didn't bother to look them up in SoJ's credits.

I really like it - a little wanderlust, a lot of nostalgia and serenity. Maybe I'm imagining it, as it's been years since I actually played it, but I think some parts remind me of some of the music from FTL. Or something else.

It literally ends on a high note, which seems to be typical of your pieces. However I prefer music which loops :)

I've always had a problem with looping something that's going to be exported as an mp3. Sounds from the end don't carry over to the beginning, and there's always that slight cut off as it starts again. Wav is better for this, but the filesize is way higher. And I'm way too "over" general midi's sounds to go back to pure .mid :D
