Composing Myst's Musical World

I am eagerly waiting Uru, the 4th chapter in the Myst series that started many years ago as a Mac made, Mac only game. I have played through Myst, Riven, and Excile many times. Its not often you find a game so engaging and so much fun, and it does not have guns and wide spread maiming in it.
The Uru project absorbed Larkin for nearly three years. “The graphics are so incredible,” he says. “As you walk through the Uru environments, everything moves with you — in real-time, photo-realistic 3D.” Watching these scenes evolve provided continual inspiration to the composer. “I’m very visual,” says Larkin. “When I’d go through an area in the game, I could hear what music or ambient sounds should be introduced.”
