Haunt Muskie

"Haunt Muskie" is a song composed by C418 that plays when the player is in Creative mode.

"Haunt Muskie" is an upbeat, ambient, rhythmic track. It begins with the growing sound of echoing chimes and clarinets that quicken in pace. A reversed piano, accompanied by a synthesized accordion or similar instrument, begin to play up and down a scale, shortly before echoing and fading away, after which the main portion of the song starts. In some parts of the track, there is a whirlwind of synthesized sounds.

A heavily reverbed synthesized saxophone can be heard in the background throughout most of the piece. The piece concludes with an unexpectedly dissonant piano chord.

Quotes

“Haunt Muskie”, if I remember correctly, an anagram for Hatsune Miku. Not entirely sure why anymore, but there you go. This song is very nostalgic for me, and I didn’t expect anyone to like it but just me. It turns out it is a little bit popular though. There was this fairly old video game I used to like. Some game where you solve puzzles of broken rollercoasters you have to fix. The music wasn’t particularly good, but the emotion it carried was something I always remembered. “Haunt Muskie” is what I remember that music to be.
