Composer and designer Lena Raine explains how Pigstep altered Minecraft's approach to music: 'The prompt I keep hearing is "Oh, Pigstep was such a banger that they want more bangers"'
The composer for Celeste and Minecraft guides us through the games on her PC.
Composer and designer Lena Raine discusses how her work with Minecraft's Pigstep altered the studio's approach to music. Raine, who initially joined the industry as a games tester for Nintendo America and later as a game designer for ArenaNet, found her first taste of game music writing while working on Guild Wars 2's Winter's Day Christmas update minigame.
This experience led to her composing the soundtrack for Celeste and several popular Minecraft tracks like Pigstep, Creator, and Otherside. Currently, Raine is writing music for the early access volleyball RPG Beastieball and her own project ANOTHEREAL, an RPG featuring schmup-style combat.
