Bigdenboo’s The Journey is the kind of project that thrives on curiosity and experimentation. What began as a simple musical experiment in the summer of 2022 gradually evolved into something much bigger—a fully realized concept with a story, characters, and a carefully built universe.
At its core, The Journey pulls from a vast range of influences, from video game soundtracks to progressive rock, electronic music, and film scores. That mix of inspiration is evident in the album’s dynamic approach, shifting between moods and styles while maintaining a cohesive identity. This isn’t music that sticks to one lane—it’s a blend of nostalgic synth tones, cinematic build-ups, and layered compositions that feel like they could easily soundtrack a lost sci-fi film or an immersive RPG.
Bigdenboo’s roots as a former apprentice organist and lifelong lover of synths play a major role in shaping the sound. There’s a clear appreciation for the golden age of analog synthesizers, with textures reminiscent of the Juno-106 and DX7. But rather than just paying homage to those classic sounds, The Journey pushes forward, exploring new sonic landscapes without getting trapped in retro nostalgia.
What sets this project apart is its sense of storytelling. It’s not just an album—it feels like a world unfolding in sound. With every track, Bigdenboo creates a narrative that invites listeners to step into a different reality, making The Journey more than just a collection of songs.
