Lena Raine - ESCISM (ESC Original Soundtrack) (Radical Dreamland, 2018)

Lena Raine released the mindblowing Celeste soundtrack this year, still one of my favorites. Checked this out on the strength of that alone and ESCISM ("escapism", I gather) is meant to be played alongside the reading experience of ESC, the game. Maybe for that reason it just doesn't work as well or sound as interesting to me as Celeste. For the most part it's very ambient, electronic-based melodies and boasts little of the color that made Celeste so original and interesting.
