Congratulations on the release of, “Fire.” How did the wonderful collaboration between yourself and Star Stable Entertainment come to be?
Hello BuzzMusic, and thank you so much! I could never have dreamt about this opportunity a couple of years ago when I was a Star Stable gamer myself. Which inspired me to start educating myself within game development in the first place. A game for girls made by a Swedish company! I started playing back in 2012. I’ve read all of their books and I was a big fan before I started as an intern one year ago. As a horse girl, game artist, and musician, it couldn’t be more perfect. I will never forget the first interview I had with the art director for Star Stable, Ullis Linder. I played some songs for her for fun because we were in the middle of talking about fantasy and creativity. Spontaneously she said that it would be a fun idea if I could sing for the game, it all started as a fun idea. She asked me if she could pass the music on to Jimmy Wahlsteen, who is Head of Music for the company. When I later started as a 3D Artist at the company, I had a meeting with Jimmy and he had the same idea as Ullis. I remember him asking me if this is something that I would like to do, to release music for the game and become an actual character within the world of Jorvik. And I said yes of course! I showed Jimmy some of my music, and he uploaded them on their music server. Later, Axel Bellinder, who also works with music for Star Stable, and composed music for the Mistfall series, contacted me and said that he had heard the song “Fire” on their servers and wanted to use it for the series.
With the purpose of this release being specifically tailored for Star Stable: Mistfall, how was the creative process for, “Fire,” different from other songs that you’ve had the chance to create?
Actually, Fire was created 2 years before Mistfall was released. Fun fact. When the song was created, years before my time in Star Stable, we were talking about how well it would fit with a series or movie. And here we are! “Fire” is a song that represents how I felt back then, haunted by a big world where you need to fight to reach your dreams. The song is a metaphoric story about believing in yourself and find your way through the surrounding chaos. Coincidently the song worked with the theme of the Mistfall series so well.
When did you realize that you wanted to integrate your love for music and visual arts?
I’ve always had a passion for both visual art and music. I mostly painted horses as a young girl. And now when I’m at a company where I have all of my interests in one place, I just feel so relieved. I have my dream job!
What words of wisdom would you offer up to anyone searching to do the same with their craft?
If it is something you’re willing to stay up all night for - then that may be a receipt that it is the right path for you. Strong will is essential; no one will do the job for you. But foremost. Do it because it is fun and because it makes you feel happy. Setbacks are natural, we all have them. But with a strong will, you can find a way!
What can we expect to see next from you? My next single "Now I Know” is out on February 26th! The song is also featured in the Mistfall soundtrack so I hope the fans will recognize it and like it as much as I do.
