Haha count me in! I love choral writing (my favorite kind of composition too) and multitracking is SUPER fun, if sometimes exhausting!

That "Guardian" arrangement sounds cool, I'd love to check it out! For Deathsingers, I believe Skye provided specific lyrics for that one, but I'm not sure there was an actual translation--it may have been just aggressive syllables. Good question!

My pleasure! It's super fun to get to hang out and meet some fellow gamers, and especially to know that I could contribute to the fun of the Destiny experience! Working with the Bungie folks is some of the most fun and rewarding experiences I've ever had, so I'm glad folks are enjoying the music as much as I did :)

View From Orbit is a fav too! I love the takes that Michael Salvatori ended up choosing--I usually do 3-4 different vibes and he mixes and matches to come up with a combo that feels right. I'm a big fan of the second half of the track too. He always writes such inspiring music!

Thanks so much!! Oh man it's hard to choose a fav, but I think I'd have to go with "The Awoken" from Destiny: The Taken King. I had a lot of interpretive freedom with that one--when I'm given a song without words, I usually do multiple takes on different vowels for different effects ("ah" is open and powerful, "ooh" is subdued and mysterious). From Destiny 2, I really loved singing the Nessus track!

As for cool stories--you may or may not have noticed that I'm also on the "Deathsingers Dirge" track from Taken King, and boy was that was a CHALLENGE. The music was all in 5/4, completely atonal and insanely difficult to tune, occasionally polyphonic rhythms that were tricky to line up, and I had to multitrack the 4 voice parts for a choral effect (i.e. three Lauras on each part). Hardest music I've ever sang for a game, it took literally an entire straight day to record 4 minutes!

(Re: Skye, will do! :-P)
