Break Free OST (OST Composing Jam 4)
A downloadable soundtrack
My "music" name is "NevrEnding" so the tracks are with that name in SoundCloud.
This is my first ever OST Composing Jam!
Genre: Orchestral, Rock
Correlation to theme: A soundtrack for a story of an orphaned boy, feared due to his mind control ability, who was kept in an orphanage, being discouraged to use his powers by horrible means. Therefore the boy decides to run away and find a loving family. With the title 'Break Free', I took the word theme 'Runaway' as 'escape'.
I also added kick drums that represented footsteps in the last track.

Track 1: Br/eɪ/k Free (Break Free)
The main theme and menu theme to my imaginary game named "Break Free". It gives a sense of excitement for the adventure up ahead.
The title is such as I wanted to imitate how Hiroyuki Sawano names his titles as my tracks are inspired by the OST of Attack on Titan and from composers like Rok Nardin.
/eɪ/ is how 'ea' is pronounced in break.
Track 2: An Adventure Awaits
In the imaginary game, the boy prepares to run away to find a loving family, unlike the ones who cast him away. As well as to learn to use his power with no ill intent and for the good of others.
This would be the background theme.
Track 3: Run Away!
In the imaginary game, this would be a sequence of hired men chasing after the boy to bring him back to the orphanage. The boy must use his powers to buy him more time to escape.
Track 4: By FORCE
The ones who ran the terrible orphanage hired more men to bring the boy by force. The first part of the soundtrack is for an imaginary cutscene where the boy is being insulted as he's beaten and bruised. The second part would be an imaginary "boss" gameplay.
Track 4: !runaway
The boy succeeds with the help and encouragement of a kindhearted couple, who was then willing to adopt him as their son. The first part of the soundtrack would be a cutscene of the boy's uncertainty if the couple would fear him as well.
To fit the theme, I added drums that represent footsteps slowing down from running to walking and then stop.
The title is such as it's a reference to how C# coding is done. When '!' is put before a boolean, it makes the boolean false. Which means in this soundtrack, the boy does not need to run away anymore.

I actually also want to try to make this a real game next time.
