I’m getting feudal Japan vibes. This would be PERFECT for the scene in Crouching Tiger where they’re riding across the grassland countryside on horseback with beautiful hills/mountains in the background. Too perfect.

I closed my eyes and let the music create a scene. I saw an alien desert planet with sand blowing peacefully. The game could be an exploration of this planet, so it could be titled Escape to Sombyr.

I’m getting vibes more akin to an intro for a feudal Japan period piece. This would be PERFECT for the scene in Crouching Tiger where they’re riding across the grassland countryside on horseback with beautiful hills/mountains in the background.

Does the section played with his right hand just consist of one solid piece without frets or keys?

Like a Theremin?

Interesting device

parent

13 points Eguy321

Yep, it's a trautonium, invented the same year as the theremin. The resistor ribbon controls pitch as you slide left and right, and the whole thing is on a metal bar that you can push down on to control volume.

The song at the start, before the second part kicks in, sounds incredibly familiar.

It sounded very familiar to me too. I immediately thought something by Radiohead. Maybe Pyramid Song?

This Instrument is a German synth from the 30's called the Trantoniun. I's recently been popularized by the artist know as Ludowic.
