Benson Cheung is a composer who creates hybrid cinematic orchestration and ambient scores for visual media. This single “The Sound of Ocean” is an experiment of blending lofi sound with environmental sound, expanding his possibilities in atmospheric game music.
In this single, Benson uses a combination of field recordings, and warm lo-fi processing to examine how ambience can serve as both music and environmental storytelling. This single represents his interest in extending game music beyond traditional scoring into more experimental sound worlds.
Through the sound of ocean and sea gull, Benson tried to create a beach and ocean scene, then with the lo-fi texture instruments, the sense of chill, relaxation and layback immediately added into the scene. It is an exploration of building environments through field recording and music.
