Day of the Dead Music: Comala

Posted about 1 year ago


My soundtrack for Halloween -- Mexican composer Jorge Reyes evokes Day of the Dead imagery: altars, flowers, candles, candy skulls and skeletons, Aztec deities and Jaguar Gods. Employing Pre-Columbian instruments and chants, highly atmospheric and cinematic -- if Grim Fandango were a movie, this would be the sountrack for it.

    Can we have a sonical taste of what you so wonderfully describe? :)

    Thank you very much! It is everything you made me think it would be. And a very visual song, too, very impressive.

    Happy Halloween!
