I really like this piece. This is the one track from Ori's OST that always stood out to me as being a little bit different in style, and I wanted to see how much further I could push it. Having covered "Light of Nibel" for another album a year prior, I knew I didn't want to make another straight orchestral-interpretation of Gareth Coker's music. So, I tried my hand at replicating "The Waters Cleansed" as best as I could, planning to use the last phrase as a solo section for the vibes, piano, and oboe. In the end, I feel what makes this cover unique is the interesting percussive textures throughout, as well as the fun trio of solos near the end. I hope you enjoy listening!

From start to finish, this piece of music was finished in three days for Materia Collective's newest album, "NIBEL: Ori and the Blind Forest Remixed". If you like what you hear, consider checking out the rest of album!
