Atmospheric overworld track for the Blighted Docks area featured in the Mina the Hollower Steam demo. Length 4:16 in the demo rip.
mediumCaves
Subterranean ambient cue (1:35) used in cave sections of the demo build.
mediumCrypt Interior
Indoor crypt theme (3:20) used inside the Crypt dungeon in the demo.
highGator Gallop
Track for Nox's Bayou; Kaufman's personal favorite from the OST. Part of the "Cajunvania" sub-style inspired by his mother's love of Louisiana Zydeco, featuring accordion and country-fiddle voicings rendered on chip hardware.
mediumIntro Letter
Story-introduction cue (2:51) accompanying Mina receiving the letter that sends her to Tenebrous Isle.
mediumIntro Suspense
Short suspense piece (1:25) used in the introduction sequence.
mediumKraken
Boss battle theme (1:56) used for the Kraken encounter in the demo build.
mediumOssyx
Longest track in the demo rip (6:16) — appears to be the Ossex/Ossyx hub-city / main theme. Likely the centerpiece track of the demo OST.
mediumOverworld
Demo overworld exploration track (3:59).
highProfile Select
Pipe-organ prelude (2:05) playing on the profile/save-select menu. In the So Many Games interview Kaufman describes designing this as a pipe-organ prelude that crossfades seamlessly into the next track when the player advances from the menu.
mediumRibbon Cutting
Short event cue (1:33) — likely an opening/ceremony jingle in the demo.
highSeptemburg A
Pre-release official OST preview track for the Septemburg area, posted Jan 27 2023 to the Yacht Club Games YouTube channel and SoundCloud. Septemburg is one of the western regions of Tenebrous Isle that Kaufman scored in his Cajunvania / folk-fingerstyle style as a tribute to his father's musical taste.
highSeptemburg B
Second official OST preview track for the Septemburg area, posted by Yacht Club Games as part of their pre-launch OST Preview playlist (3:03 runtime). Same folk/fingerstyle Cajunvania feel as Septemburg A.
mediumThorne
Boss-encounter theme (2:35), likely tied to the character/boss Baron Thorne featured in the demo.
