Since its debut, the game has consistently been updated, but what truly sets Smalland apart is its enchanting soundtrack, which can now be enjoyed in an unprecedented way thanks to its recent live orchestra performance. Here’s a sneak peek at the making of these special performances, showcasing the dedication and passion poured into crafting this game’s lively music, a cherished aspect of this popular title.

Pav Gekko has crafted a Smalland soundtrack influenced by classical music and iconic film composers. In the video, he is accompanied by Ryan Williams (Dead Island 2), who came to witness the orchestra, as well as local musicians who contribute to giving the elvish hero of Smalland a grand, Hollywood-like score.

According to Pav Gekko, it’s crucial that game music is top-notch. The soundtrack for Smalland shines with its rich, intentionally retro sound, neo-classical arrangement, and antique touch that evoke the enchanting, whimsical ambiance of the game’s universe. Drawing inspiration from the symphonic adventure scores of the 1980s, it seamlessly combines nostalgic action-adventure elements with a fairy tale-like quality and vibrant orchestral tones. This composition immerses listeners in the world of Smalland, where a small elf-like character embarks on an epic journey.
