The music

Something familiar. Something very wrong.

Disturbing orchestral textures and a recurring piano theme meet the unsettling cheer of music that sounds as though it belongs to another era. In The Outlast Trials, even the welcome can feel like a warning.

Behind the score

A soundtrack with teeth.

For The Root Canal, a map set inside a giant mouth, Tom built textures from his own mouth sounds. A deliberately cheerful song for animatronic teeth and teddy bears makes the surroundings feel even less comforting. The contrast is part of the horror.
