Rémi Gallego · Metal
Metal composer for video games
Rémi Gallego is a French composer who writes metal for games: progressive metal and djent, heavy guitars locked to electronic drums and synths. As The Algorithm he has built a recognised voice fusing metal with electronic music, and he brings it to combat, hordes and boss fights, with room for melancholy between the waves.
His score for The Last Spell, a tactical roguelite from Ishtar Games, is twenty-seven tracks of progressive metal and synth, also pressed on vinyl by Kid Katana Records. Hell Is Other Demons pairs metal riffs with dark synthwave, and he wrote “Fire and Flesh” and “Elemental Fury” for tinyBuild’s hack-and-slash VOIN.
