Cairn’s nominated for TWO Gamescom Awards! So proud of our legendary audio team, congrats on the Best Audio nomination for the visceral sounds of climbing. And many thanks for the Best Gameplay award, climbing never felt so good. Best of luck to all nominees!

Beautiful music in a beautiful physical form. 🧡💙 CAIRN is an exceptional videogame, with a fantastic soundtrack! Highly recommended! @thegamebakers.com @martinstig.bsky.social

Cairn soundtrack on vinyl, music by Martin Stig Andersen, Gildaa, The Toxic Avenger, 2026 The Game Bakers, Enchanté Records, G4F Records.

Front cover with the main protagonist seen feom the back, looking at a tall mountain in front, with orange sunlight hitting the top. The cover is in front of blue sky, with blurry nature background and my hand at the bottom.

The vinyl itself, in beautiful bright orange, with a blue label—fitting the tone of the artwork.

Last year, @nilsiverholtar.bsky.social and I founded @interactivetapes.bsky.social to help shape a new generation of music design in games! This is where I’m focusing my work now, exploring new approaches to music system design and implementation. We’ll be at GDC next week - say hello if you see me!

I’ll be doing a session on the audio of Cairn, with live gameplay and commentary, moderated by Alistair Hirst. We’ll explore how climbing Foley and an organic breathing system replace the traditional stamina bar, while spatial mixing further enhances immersion. Hope to see you there!

"The Game Bakers created a system called ‘Mountain Intimidation’ that shifts the environmental sonic landscape depending on what angle you’re looking at the peak." Kami can be scary! Just as scary as it is beautiful.
