The game characters MM and NN are small creatures living in a garden, where the maze is also located and it becomes a fundamental place for them, therefore everything that’s going on in the outside is not as important as what is happening with their journey, but the ambience continues anyway.
Field recording
Different places were selected to capture the sounds of birds, wind and a little bit of human presence to create the perfect ambience of a garden.
Royal Botanic Garden
An important place for the recordings was the Edinburgh Botanic Garden. Every sound source that is usual in a garden was found there, like birds, leafs, wind, some squirrels and even a small waterfall.
Holyrood Park
This park has a wide landscape that comes very useful for various field recordings, like wind, natural quiet ambiences between hills, ducks, seagulls, cars, people and more.
Local Gardens
Other small gardens were also recorded to capture a more private and quiet soundscape.
