“Marceline’s Closet” Score

Good news. Adventure Time composer Casey James Basichis has uploaded to his SoundCloud the score to the “Marceline’s Closet” episode. It’s all good stuff, but despite Marcie’s proclamation of “No one can hear it. Ever,” you’ll especially want to check out her feature beginning at 3.33. Sung by Olivia Olson, the song was written by board artist Jesse Moynihan who writes on his website:

[The song] was loosely inspired by the composer Louis Andreissen’s piece “De Staat”, except dumbed down. Basically I tried to write the kind of thing that I’ve never heard on tv before. I kept a consistent beat throughout, but didn’t let the melody repeat in any way. It’s sort of a wandering, linear phrase with all the instruments reinforcing Olivia Olson’s vocals in unison.

After recording the demo I got really nervous about it, and wrote an alternate song that was straight pop. Funny enough, Pen didn’t seem to go for the second one and liked the first, super weird one. I ended up using the pop song for my band Make A Rising on our album that we’re working on right now

Thanks, Jesse, Casey, and Olivia.

don’t miss this adventure time freebie! woo!
