The sound of the league

One theme.
Every floodlit night.

This is the music of NPL Cricket League: an original score we composed in-house for the game. It opens our first-look film, it plays in the lobby while you pick your team, and it rises when you win. Press play.

0:00 / 1:01

  • Lobby

    0:00 / 0:40

    Plays in the menus and the lobby while you choose a team and wait for friends. In the game it loops without a join.

  • Victory

    0:00 / 0:10

    The full band and a bright final chord when you win a match.

  • Defeat

    0:00 / 0:06

    A low chord and a falling phrase when the match gets away from you.

In the match

A cue for every big moment.

Short pieces from the same theme for the match itself. They sit under the crowd and the voices, and fade out of the way as the next ball is bowled.

  • Walk-out

    0:00 / 0:04

    Three steps up and a hit as the match begins.

  • Four

    0:00 / 0:01

    A quick, bright chord when the ball reaches the rope.

  • Six

    0:00 / 0:02

    Three rising chords on the big drums for the ball that clears it.

  • Wicket

    0:00 / 0:02

    A dark low hit and three falling notes when a batter is out.

  • Between overs

    0:00 / 0:06

    Two bars of the light groove when an over ends.

  • Innings break

    0:00 / 0:12

    A hit as the target goes up, then the groove under it until the chase begins.

  • Last over

    0:00 / 0:10

    A low pad and a heartbeat under the final over of a chase that can still go either way.

Where you hear it

It follows the match.

  1. 1

    In the lobby

    The theme comes up as the lobby opens and stays with you through the menus.

  2. 2

    During the match

    The theme fades and the ground takes over: the crowd, the bat and the voices. Short cues mark the boundaries, the wickets and the breaks.

  3. 3

    At the result

    One short piece for a win, another for a loss. Then the lobby theme picks up where it left off.

How it is made

Composed in‑house, note by note.

No stock music and no borrowed samples: every drum, string and brass line in the theme is our own, written for this game.

The look that goes with it

Floodlights, gold and crimson.

The theme was written to match the game's colours: a night sky over the ground, gold for the trophy, crimson for the flag, and snow for the peaks behind the stands.
