RedRunner

Hi everyone. I will soon be interviewing Solar Fields, the composer for Mirror's Edge and Mirror's Edge Catalyst. If you have any questions you wish to ask, leave them here, and I'll add the best ones to my list.

Once I've published the interview, I'll post it here.

Wow, I am really excited, now. I will be waiting. Here's my questions, hope you like it.

-How he started his career and also making music for Mirror's Edge?
-Everybody who plays Mirror's Edge and MEC has same opinion with especially one thing, soundtracks are magnificent. What is his secret and what makes soundtracks so special and unique when it comes to ME/MEC?
-Who's his favourite character in ME or MEC?

Glad you're excited about the interview! I'm hoping for it to go live next week, though I can't tell for sure when it'll be ready yet.

Good to know that !
My questions are
- There's a french label, Ultimae Record which edits his music. Is there all Solar Field's music? If not, where can I buy the rest?
- Does he know if all music made for MEC will be on the soundtrack ? I mean all of it like "complete recording sessions" for Lord of The Ring. With the song ?
That all for me.

Solar Fields is my favourite artist, and he was the one that introduced me to electronic ambient music, which turned out to be my favourite genre! So tell him thank you on my behalf.

My questions:

-Is there something specific that sometimes inspires him to make his music?

-How does he capture the atmosphere of the two Mirror's Edge games so perfectly through his music?

-Has he ever been interested in or tried doing parkour?

I'm sure there's more but I can't think of anything good right now and I don't want to post a million questions anyway. Thank you for doing this!

Thank you for all the awesome music Solar Fields. The music is amazing in Mirrors Edge. It's the best game soundtrack ever.

Will there be a instrumental version of Warning Call By Chvrches??. Because that song is awesome.

Buraku78

does he want to work on another ME?

SisterMercuRay

Will there be a vinyl release of the soundtrack? (I think I suggested that in one of the many Mirror's Edge posts and Solar Fields himself actually liked the post)

Merc

Only just saw this. I hope I'm not too late.

The 2013 and 2014 previews of Mirror's Edge Catalyst featured a brand new song which seemed to be the new theme for the game. It hasn't been released yet at all. It may have been scrapped for Warning Call.

Here's a looped version of the snippets: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EP4O0rqorQA

Please could you ask Solar Fields what happened to the song and whether it will be included on the soundtrack?

His development process happens during the post-production of Mirror's Edge in order to create off the energy of the narrative and characters, or does it begin before that? I guess I'm curious at what point does he create his music and what drives the inspiration for what encompasses the city of Glass and its inhabitants...

Subbing so I can read the interview when it goes live.

That's great. A lot of people are wondering what happened with the old theme song. It would be great to hear what happened from Solar Fields

Am I too late?
___

Has he played / does he play Mirror's Edge?
Would he consider or like to compose an album inspired by Mirror's Edge?
Did he compose music that did not get into the game? If so, will it be released later at some point?
Was it hard to make the dynamic music work / to "make sense"?
