I’ve been playing this song ever since I wrote Spawn. It was actually the song I listened to writing the entire second half, starting with the Westendorf scenes. Once I started listening to it, I couldn’t stop, and I eventually taught it to myself by ear on the piano. Now I play it nonstop. I didn’t record it because I knew that once I did, I would probably stop playing it on the piano. But now that I’ve read through Spawn and I know that it isn’t a pile of crap (yay! now onto making the 2nd draft), I felt it was time to put this thing to MP3.

• Hear the piano version, intentionally muted-sounding.

• Or hear the Gamelimba version, which sounds much closer to the original song.

The song is by Yuki Kajiura, and appears in Noir. The Noir OST’s were all I listened to while writing Spawn.
