Since 2020, HOYO-MiX, the in-house music studio of the video game developer company miHoYo, has been releasing music soundtracks for in-game Genshin Impact. The music has received generally positive reviews, and has won several awards.
Mondstadt soundtrack
In 2019, video game developer company miHoYo got composer and music producer Yu-Peng Chen, also known as Chen Zhiyi, to produce the soundtrack for their title Genshin Impact with their in-house music studio HOYO-MiX. It was Chen's first major video game work, and he described the project as a difficult challenge. The game has an open-world environment that features areas referred to as regions, with visual designs inspired by different world cultures. In composing the music for these regions, Chen chose a style that integrates elements of traditional folk music with Western musical arrangements.[1] During the pre-release development stage, the game only featured Mondstadt and Liyue, two of the planned seven regions.[2] On top of idyllic rural scenery, medieval European architectural styles and cultures inspired the design of Mondstadt.[3] In composing the music for Mondstadt, Chen borrowed the language and rhythm of Impressionism and used the piano, tin whistle instruments, and medieval-style lutes. In composing the combat music, he used various composition techniques such as polyphony and taking orchestration elements from composers such as Ludwig van Beethoven.[4][1]
The Mondstadt soundtrack was performed by the London Philharmonic Orchestra with Robert Ziegler as the conductor, and Nick Wollage and Laurence Anslow as music engineers. The coordination with the orchestra was done by Lei Cine Music Management (擂闪音乐事务所), with preliminary communication taking place five months before the recording. The recording sessions took place from 16 to 18 September 2019, at AIR Studios.[5][6] Lei Zhang (张磊), the founder of Lei Cine Music Management, joined Yu-Peng Chen and HOYO-MiX director Jinhan "Zoe" Cai (蔡近翰) for the recording in London.[7] At AIR Studios, Chen had conducted the "Genshin Impact Main Theme" himself.[8][9]
The thing that struck me most about this score in particular is Yu-Peng's facility for incorporating some incredibly difficult writing. When you take a step back and de-focus slightly, it sounds incredibly simple but it really isn't. The musicians on this score have really risen to the occasion because it's absolutely phenomenal playing. It's very difficult and we were under a bit of a time pressure. They really pulled out all the stops and it was really quite amazing actually.
The first original soundtrack album to be produced for Genshin Impact was The Wind and The Star Traveler[a] (风与异乡人), which got released on 19 June 2020.[10] All fifteen soundtracks in the album were composed by Yu-Peng Chen. The next soundtrack album, City of Winds and Idylls (风与牧歌之城), is dedicated to the Mondstadt Chapter and commemorates the release of Genshin Impact.[11] The album got released on digital music platforms on September 28, 2020, and the proper release on the official Genshin Impact YouTube channel occurred on November 2, 2020.[12] Two tracks, "Whirl of Boreal Wind" and "Symphony of Boreal Wind", were performed by the Shanghai Symphony Orchestra.
Vortex of Legends (漩涡、落星与冰山), the fifth Genshin Impact soundtrack album, got released on April 2, 2021. It featured a total of seventeen (17) tracks composed by Yu-Peng Chen of HOYO-MiX, each one an original composition for the Dragonspine area. The track listing was first announced on March 31, 2021, on Chinese platforms.[13] The soundtrack was recorded with the International Master Philharmonic Orchestra (国际首席爱乐乐团) at the Jintian Recording Studio (金田录音棚).

When we previously recorded with the London Philharmonic Orchestra, we were in a church, giving the whole atmosphere a very solemn feeling. This time, we decided to record at the Shanghai Symphony Orchestra Hall where the Shanghai Symphony Orchestra usually performs. The musicians and the conductor were all relaxed and performed exceptionally well in this environment. The Chinese music performed by these Chinese traditional music players felt natural and exquisite. They were able to unleash fiery passion in their performance. I especially like this.
For Liyue, which had scenic Eastern fantasy as its basis,[15] Chen used elements of Chinese folk music—traditional instruments, the pentatonic scale, and ancient tonal melodies—with Western romantic harmonies and orchestral arrangements. The Liyue soundtrack got performed by the Shanghai Symphony Orchestra at the Shanghai Symphony Hall (上海交响乐团音乐厅), with Jiemin Zhang (张洁敏) as the conductor.[1] Dong An (安栋), one of Chen's mentors from the Shanghai Conservatory of Music, served as a music supervisor during the scoring sessions of the soundtrack. Xiaoxing Lu (陆晓幸), noted as a co-awardee at the 44th Annual Grammy Awards for the soundtrack of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (2000), served as the recording director and consultant.[14] The recording of the Liyue soundtrack took five days.[16]
Jade Moon Upon a Sea of Clouds (皎月云间之梦), the third Genshin Impact soundtrack album to be produced, is dedicated to the Liyue Chapter.[17] It featured a total of sixty-nine (69) tracks all composed by Yu-Peng Chen. One track, "Liyue", was performed by the London Philharmonic Orchestra.
The next soundtrack album for Liyue, Millelith's Watch (千岩旷望), got released on June 22, 2022. It featured a total of forty (40) tracks dedicated to The Chasm area, composed by Yu-Peng Chen, Dimeng Yuan (苑迪萌), Qian Ding (丁谦), Yijun Jiang (姜以君), and Xin Zhao (赵鑫). Before its release, the track listing was announced on June 19.[18] The album saw guest musician Haitao Li (李海涛) on the Morin Khuur. Li was known for performing the instrument on the streets of Shanghai, and had gained significant attention and following online for doing so since 2016.[19]

Like the soundtrack for the Liyue region, the music of Inazuma also took on the fusion of traditional or folk musical elements with Western orchestration. Much of the compositions took from historic Japanese melodies. One instance is "Sakura Sakura", which was adapted for the theme of the Electro Archon. After learning about the popularity of previous combat music with players, Yu-Peng Chen chose to compose four combat themes for Inazuma, opposed to the Mondstadt and Liyue regions only having three combat themes each. He also adopted the rhythmic style of modern electronic music in composing the music. The Inazuma soundtrack was performed by the Tokyo Philharmonic Orchestra, with Hirofumi Kurita (栗田 博文) as the conductor and Sachiko Miyano (宮野 幸子) of Shangri-La Inc. as the scoring sessions director. The sound recording was done at multiple studios in China and Japan, and the mixing and mastering was done by music engineers Simon Rhodes and Simon Gibson of Abbey Road Studios in London. The recording process took around one and half months; the production for four months in total with preliminary communication accounted for.[20]
Because Mr. Chen, a Chinese person, composed Japanese-style pieces, I think it is something that most Japanese people would consider out of the ordinary. The Japanese-style melodies sound Japanese, but not entirely Japanese and have a timeless, transcendental beauty to it and that actually provides a great listening experience.
Realm of Tranquil Eternity (寂远无妄之国), the seventh soundtrack album to be produced for Genshin Impact and dedicated to the Inazuma Chapter, got released on 22 September 2021. Prior to that, its track listing was officially announced on September 17. The album featured sixty-two (62), all composed and arranged by Yu-Peng Chen.[21][22]

Sumeru soundtrack
Forest of Jnana and Vidya
Quick Facts Forest of Jnana and Vidya, Soundtrack album by HOYO-MiX ...
The music of Sumeru region took inspiration from various cultures and regions of the North Africa Middle East and South Asia. For the rainforest area inspired by South Asia, the music featured traditional instruments included the bansuri performed by Eliza Marshall, the sitar performed by Jonathan Mayer and Arjun Verma, and the tabla performed by Kuljit Bhamra, among others. The composers incorporated elements of yoga music into their work to give the music "a feeling of contemporary wisdom and spirituality". Composer Yu-Peng Chen also took reference from symphonic suites by Russian classical composer Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov and orchestration elements from Rimsky-Korsakov's "Scheherazade". The London Symphony Orchestra, along with conductor Robert Ziegler returning from the Mondstadt soundtrack, performed majority of the music. The orchestra recording was done at Abbey Road Studios in London.[24] Other guest folk musicians included Baha Yetkin, Attab, and Kian on the oud, Steve Smith on the bouzouki and mandolin, Maya Youssef on the kanun, Peyman on the santur. Mixing engineer Simon Gibson of Abbey Road Studios returned from the Liyue music production to work on the Sumeru soundtrack.
It is always nice to be around people that can look at the world from the same point of view as you as we have similar interests, especially where music is involved. The rest of the project becomes just a detail when it involves emotions and getting those emotions across. Music is always nice no matter what form it takes. If we can express those emotions properly, That would make me very happy.
Forest of Jnana and Vidya (智妙明论之林), the fourteenth Genshin Impact soundtrack album to be produced, is dedicated to the Sumeru Chapter. The track listing was officially announced on October 18, 2022, and the album got released on October 20.[25] It featured a total of one-hundred (100) tracks composed by Yu-Peng Chen, Dimeng Yuan, Qian Ding, Yijun Jiang, and Xin Zhao. Aside from the London Symphony Orchestra, other participating orchestra groups included the Budapest Scoring Orchestra, International Master Philharmonic Orchestra (国际首席爱乐乐团), and The City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra. Other participating musicians included Jiannan Gu (顾剑楠) on the bansuri, Ashley Blasse and Ye Fan (范晔) on the classical guitar, and Stephanie Gonley and Ming Liu (柳鸣) on the violin.

Reception
Red Thomas of MMORPG.com said, "The Genshin Impact score is massive, complex, and exceptional with clear multi-cultural inspirations. I haven't played the game enough to say for sure, but I feel like the combat music is changing from region to region, which is a level of ambition that is just ridiculous. Even from what I've heard of the soundtrack so far tells me that composer Yu-Peng Chen stretched successfully to pull motifs and sounds from a diverse set of inspirations to produce what might be the most complex suite of compositions for a single game that I've ever found."[32]
Antonia Haynes of Goomba Stomp Magazine said, "...[Developer] miHoYo and Yu-Peng Chen—along with HOYO-MiX—clearly didn't want to treat this project any differently than you would any other game, film, or television series. In fact, they go above and beyond to create a soundtrack that revitalizes a game where the music may not have received that kind of attention had anyone else taken the reigns[sic]. Genshin Impact is an example of what can be done when you have enough passion for a project, no matter what kind of game it is."[33]
