"It's quite a stunning world that [the developers] created, so it gave me an opportunity to write some very beautiful music," says Forspoken co-composer Garry Schyman."It really was an opportunity to write something that's not just combat and not just dark; it was an opportunity to write melodies."

"And games often provide the opportunity to write melody, which I love. There are a lot of films with terrific scores, but they're pretty ambient, they're pretty sound design-y shall we say, for lack of a better word. And there's nothing to recall, really. Schyman and McCreary shared responsibility for the score, composing a number of themes between them that Schyman elaborated on for the in-game music. Schyman picks out Frey's theme and the theme for central city Cipal as key pieces: the latter features long musical phrases tinged with dissonance over harp accompaniment to really add to the mystical vibe.

The vocalist is Black singer India Carney, whose singing becomes a sort of human anchor within the music. "Besides singing what I'd written for her, I said 'if you have any ideas, if you want to improvise...'. And she did some really beautiful improvisations over what I had written," he says."It added so much character. When I was done, actually, I was almost sorry that I hadn't added more of her, because she just adds this whole uniqueness to everything she sang on.

A systematic review - Journal of Health, Population and NutritionDoes the high dietary diversity score predict dietary micronutrients adequacy in children under 5 years old? A systematic review - Journal of Health, Population and NutritionBackgrounds Undiversified and monotonous diets can lead to deficiency disease, named micronutrient deficiency, more specifically among young children. Dietary diversity (DD) has been known as a valid indicator to assess micronutrient inadequacy of the diet. The aim of this study was to determine “is there an association between high dietary diversity and the micronutrient adequacy, in children under 5 years old?”. Methods PubMed, Scopus, ScienceDirect, Web of Sciences, and Google Scholar databases were searched until February 2022, without date restrictions, using relevant keywords. All original articles, written in English, evaluating the relationship between DD and micronutrient adequacy in children under 5 years were eligible for this review. Results Totally, 1814 records were found in electronic search databases; after removing duplicated and irrelevant studies according to the title and abstract, the full text of the 35 articles was critically screened, in which 15 cross-sectional studies were included in this review. All of these studies reported that DD of infants and children under 5 years was positively associated with their micronutrient adequacy.
