Early life


Raine had an early exposure to music due to participation in choir at a young age. Her father was also a violinist.[3] Through a Sonic the Hedgehog fan community she was introduced to MIDI arrangement, first making MIDI versions of songs she knew and then making original music.[4] She later attended Cornish College of the Arts for a degree in music composition.[3]


Career


Raine is best known for her work on the soundtracks of Celeste and Guild Wars 2.[5] She worked on Guild Wars 2 at ArenaNet for six years, initially as a Game Designer[6] before composing soundtracks for the game.[7] At ArenaNet, she and Maclaine Diemer were in-house composers of the music for the game's 2015 expansion, Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns.[8] She left ArenaNet in 2016.[7]

In 2018, Raine released the text adventure ESC on itch.io. Raine was the developer and composer for ESC, with visuals created by Dataerase.[9][10] In 2019, she released her debut album, Oneknowing.[11] She composed music for Minecraft, creating four new pieces of music which were included in the 1.16 "Nether Update" in 2020.[12] A year later, she returned to Minecraft, composing six new tracks for the 1.18 "Caves & Cliffs: Part II" update, alongside fellow video game composer Kumi Tanioka.[13] Raine created the soundtrack for the adventure RPG Chicory: A Colorful Tale,[14] and assisted with the soundtrack for the second chapter of Deltarune, both released in 2021.[15]
