Browse piano sheets by Pascal Michael Steifel on Zen Virtual Piano. Spotify describes Pascal Michael Stiefel, also known as Plasma3Music, as a composer, music producer and sound designer for media and video games from Switzerland, with 22 years of experience. NewRetro adds that he was born in Zurich and is not just a composer but a genre-splicing, joystick-wielding, synth-twiddling force of nature. A description that puts a joystick next to a synthesizer suggests a composer who treats play and craft as the same activity. The A Hat in Time Soundtrack, the first album of music from the game, was released on 5 October 2017, at the same time as the game itself. Most of the album was composed and performed by Stiefel, with several guest composers contributing additional remixes. It includes most of the tracks from the base game. A soundtrack released on the same day as the game suggests music treated as part of the launch rather than as an afterthought. Stiefel also worked on the original soundtrack of Circuit Superstars, a racing game developed by Original Fire Games and published by Square Enix. NewRetro describes the 2021 game’s score as punchy and energetic rather than a standard EDM-fuelled arcade mix, a sonic cocktail of city pop, synthwave and vintage arcade vibes that evoked OutRun, Tokyo nightlife and a forgotten 1980s anime in one. A score that NewRetro describes as a mix of city pop, synthwave and vintage arcade vibes can be read as a soundtrack that draws on sounds associated with one era. With Laura Platt, Stiefel made tracks including Press Garden Zone from Sonic Mania (Chillwave Remix), The Moon from DuckTales (Orchestral Remix), the Overwatch Trailer Theme 2016 (Orchestral Remix) and the Game of Thrones Main Theme (Epic Orchestra Remix). Set side by side, remixes ranging from epic orchestra to chillwave hint at a musician comfortable with big, cinematic sounds and with light, nostalgic ones.
