Gone Home Original Soundtrack



The Gone Home Original Soundtrack, also known as GH:OST, is the original score composed by Chris Remo for Gone Home. It was first released on October 22, 2013, on Chris Remo's bandcamp site, and since July 14, 2014 it has been available to purchase as a digital download through Steam. It was also included as part of the special edition of the game.

In September 2018, it was announced that a vinyl version of the soundtrack would be released, and would be distributed by game merchandise company iam8bit. It shipped Q1 2019. In November 2019, Kill Rock Stars released a limited-run of the soundtrack on cassette tape. This is the only version of the soundtrack to include the riot grrrl music located throughout the game; all other versions only include Chris Remo's score.

History and sound
Steve Gaynor first asked Remo to compose the music for Gone Home, and Remo has said that he "was really excited about it, but there were almost no parameters". He used vintage piano sounds, such as Wurlitzers and Fender Rhodes, in order to create the distinctive sounds needed for the time and place that the game was set in. However, it also needed to blend into the background; one note that Gaynor kept bringing up was for there to be "less melody" and for Remo to "pull it back". It resulted in a very subdued melody that underscored every audio diary, and worked to contrast the sound with the secondary riot grrrl soundtrack.
