Bus To Nowhere is track no. 4 on Silent Hill Downpour Original Soundtrack. In-game, it plays in the
opening cinematic of the prisoners being loaded into a bus for transport to Wayside Maximum Security
from Ryall State Prison before crashing.
 
Released for the PS3 and Xbox 360 in 2012, Downpour is the first game in the series to not have been scored
by Akira Yamaoka. Upon his departure from Konami, Daniel Licht took over the composing duties and is
credited for playing the mandolin, dulcimer, guitar, keyboard and percussion on the accompanying
CD release.
 
I have seen clips of Daniel recording these instruments, so unlike Akira, he did not sample (most of) them.
Further visual confirmation came from his colleague Norman Kim playing some mandolin parts in a tribute
symphony after Daniel passed away.
 
Standard tuning mandolin transcript in GDae. Play with a sustained tremolo!
