It was fun to come back and have another look at this theme, which is now a bit like an old friend. So, the textures and arrangement were updated and inspired by the original. as revisited right around the time I began work on Skyrim. Written as an exercise as a way to get my head back into TES, this was the very first track completed for Skyrim.For this directionless frame of mind leaves an opening for many interpretations, all reinforcing a personal connection to the game. Melodic beats (which typically give strong narrative direction) were replaced with harmonic color, and the world becomes a dream. It was an approach meant to diffuse aural focus in a shift to the visual nature of the Morrowind adventure. This music was my impression of that state. Anything tangible is overtaken by the feeling of being in two worlds, neither of which are distinct. In a waking moment from a dream, familiarity somehow coexists with a strange newness that can overwhelm the senses.Jeremy Soule has shared some of his inspirations and background information about some of the tracks: Over the Next Hill The soundtrack was nominated for the Outstanding Achievement in Original Music Composition award of the Academy of Interactive Arts & Science, but lost out to Medal of Honor: Frontline.
