In late 2009, Bungie management came to composer Martin O'Donnell, asking him to write music for the game that would be called ''Destiny''. He came up with a concept he described as "centuries old", which was "music for the sake of music". | In late 2009, Bungie management came to composer Martin O'Donnell, asking him to write music for the game that would be called ''Destiny''. He came up with a concept he described as "centuries old", which was "music for the sake of music". O'Donnell wrote music that "told its own story", and would be released before the full game to introduce people to the music of Destiny. O'Donnell worked on it with his colleague and musical-partner Michael Salvatori, and later recruited famed musician Paul McCartney to the project. <ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K1Im5m67Ajs</ref> | ||
O'Donnell took inspiration from the ancient concept "[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Musica_universalis Musica Universalis]"<ref>https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2016-04-12-the-day-the-music-died-when-bungie-fired-marty-odonnell</ref>, or the idea that the seven spheres humanity knew about at the time moved in relation to music. O'Donnell also used [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geomantic_figures nocturnal geomantic figures] as the namesake for the individual tracks. O'Donnell's last inspiration for the work was the Lydian B7 musical scale, which gave every piece a specific key it was written in.<ref>http://wshu.org/post/marty-odonnell-origin-story-music-spheres#stream/0</ref> | O'Donnell took inspiration from the ancient concept "[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Musica_universalis Musica Universalis]"<ref>https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2016-04-12-the-day-the-music-died-when-bungie-fired-marty-odonnell</ref>, or the idea that the seven spheres humanity knew about at the time moved in relation to music.
