Robyn Miller

Robyn Miller is best known for co-founding the computer game company Cyan and created with his brother Rand the landmark games Myst and Riven. Miller also played Sirrus in the first game and wrote the scores for both games. Myst features haunting electronic sounds and distinctive motifs that add an unsettling feeling to the already eerie game. (His themes for the brothers Sirrus and Achenar would be used by Jack Wall in his score for Myst IV: Revelation.) Riven's score is more atmospheric and less busy, with an emphasis on "ethnic" sounds. In 2005, Miller worked on a new musical project called Ambo.
