Jam of the Day: Setting Sail, Coming Home (End Theme) by Darren Korb (Bastion Original Soundtrack)
A testament to the quality of the Bastion soundtrack is how many people who never normally talk about video game music were begging for an official OST. In any discussion of the game, the music was always brought up. That’s something that just doesn’t seem to happen outside of niche, game music enthusiasts.
“Setting Sail, Coming Home” combines two vocal tracks (“Build That Wall” and “Mother, I’m Here”) from some of the most powerful moments earlier in the game into something new for the ending theme. It works beautifully and still sends chills down my spine when I hear it.
The year’s not over yet, but at this point I still don’t think anything is standing in Bastion’s way for being my soundtrack of the year.
