about

[ENG] “Time given, chosen lives” is the result of 20 years of music, from harsh industrial EBM in the 2000's to rock and metal a few years back, Zenibuka has dabbled in different genres, experimenting with instruments as well as computer-generated music.
This album is inspired by some of his favorite videogames, proposing an extension of their experience and the feeling they leave the player with. Whether it be Celeste, Hollow Knight, Horizon Zero Dawn or The Binding of Isaac, this album goes beyond the mere homage to deliver a true interpretation of different universes. Think of it as the soundtrack for a game expansion yet to be released.
Marking 20 years of music as well as the composer’s 40th birthday, this album has been made with great care and passion.
The cover art has been made by french artist Guy-Pascal Vallez, whose strange and colorful worlds match perfectly with the mood set for this project.
The mastering was engineered by Julien "Rouksos" Van Egroo, a talented musician and sound wizard who has worked on music from MisterMV and the Remixers et Résonances collectives.
The style is varied from orchestral to chiptune and rock, to offer you a wide range of emotions and moods.

[FR] “Time given, chosen lives” est le résultat de 20 ans de musique, de l’EBM rugueux dans les années 2000 au rock et métal il y a quelques années, Zenibuka s’est essayé à plusieurs genres, expérimentant aussi bien avec des instruments que de la musique assistée par ordinateur.
Cet album est inspiré par quelques uns de ses jeux vidéo favoris et propose une extension de l’expérience et des émotions avec lesquelles ils laissent le joueur. Qu’il s’agisse de Celeste, Hollow Knight, Horizon Zero Dawn ou The Binding of Isaac, cet album va au-delà d’un simple hommage pour livrer une véritable interprétation de différents univers. Imaginez-le tel la bande son d’une extension inédite d’un jeu.
Marquant les 20 ans de musique et les 40 ans du compositeur, cet album a été conçu avec beaucoup de soin et de passion.
L’illustration de la pochette a été réalisée par l’artiste français Guy-Pascal Vallez, dont les mondes étranges et colorés collent parfaitement à l’ambiance de ce projet.
Le mastering a été réalisé par Julien "Rouksos" Van Egroo, musicien de talent et magicien du son qui a œuvré pour MisterMV et les collectifs Remixers et Résonances.
Le style varie de l’orchestral au chiptune ou encore au metal, pour vous offrir une large palette d’humeurs et d’émotions.
