"My inspiration was to create the sensation you navigate under a big ice floe. At first just moving under the water  you pass through the ice floe and sometimes ice collapses and crashes. I used only field recording sound with some audio process to create the sensation. ice, underwater movement etc. So basically I recorded some different foley texture and try to pre-design different elements I needed (ice melted, cracking, ice block moving, impact, explosions etc.)."
