Jason Grave - What could possibly go wrong

The song comes from the OST of the computer game "Until Dawn" and answers the question of whether the soundboard is the right playback device for the sound of computer games...
What could possibly go wrong - until-dawn - jason grave

At the KKL in Lucerne, the City Light Orchestra conducted by Anthony Gabriele and the Boys Choir Lucerne, which has been expanded to include several female voices, performed classic game music for us, accompanied by brilliant excerpts from the games on screen. We heard everything the genre has to offer: Leage of Legends, Guild Wars 2, Ori and the blind Forest, Bioshock, Assasins Creed, World of Warcraft and a few more - and even the excerpt from the horror game Until Dawn. 

Designed for the PS4, the 2015 game offers the typical "I know what you did last summer" plot. The picture quality is excellent and the soundtrack by Jason Grave matches the calm and breathtaking moments of shock. Logically, things get off to a gloomy start. A light through the harp playing, which then starts the suspense. The strings play right next to the bridge, creating a creaky sound and then.....Boom. It continues with weird strings, blatant trombones and cool percussion sounds. Everything that a loudspeaker needs to deliver to sound good is called up with high dynamics. The soundboard plays it effortlessly. 

There is no entry for the song on the relevant music services. So if you want to listen to it in top quality, you need the game or the OST CD, which is why there is no entry in the playlist below. The version here on YouTube is slightly better:

I'm not a horror guy myself. The music is enough for me and I don't use trailers or pictures here for reasons of youth protection.
