Track Listing
A flowing story through the arrow of time. Fluid movement from an opening minimalist piano and pizzicato motif. Hopeful and evolving string theme builds from 0:53
Rippling in between eras with stoic determination. Liquefied string quartet and piano playfully interact while woodwind provides the urgency. Drop and build from 1:30
An introspective soundtrack for a forgotten empire. A penetrating sadness gently sways and features a heavyhearted combination of icy strings, piano and twinkling bells.
A bustling network of connectivity through personal realities. Dynamic, strong-willed and propulsive orchestral score which provides an insistent and precise feel.
Finding a supportive community. Reflective with underlying positivity; opening with a simple piano theme which builds with a mellow tabla groove from 0:57
A state of contemplation in a peaceful reverie. Ambient string quartet glides alongside a lilting piano motif which encourages well-being and inward harmony.
An optimistic new day begins. Steady Marimba pattern gradually unfolds and layers of elegant piano and glockenspiel emerge with brass and strings in support.
Driving towards uncertain times. The plot thickens with building unease, with uncovering orchestral and percussive layers. Leading to dramatic string accents from 1:05
Nature's clock working in wondrous balance. Ethereal bells chime with subtle mechanical rhythms providing the pulse. Graceful string led theme comes in at 1:26
A mysterious enigma that darkens the mood. Odd and unsettling rhythms underpin a noir style soundtrack. Rising emotion with swelling orchestral theme from 1:15
Dark musings begin to bifurcate. Sober and sorrowful opening motif begins to transition towards a glimpse of hope at 1:19 before returning to it's opening state at 2:00
Bureaucratic political drama with a personal agenda. Upwardly mobile orchestral minimalism seeks to devolve opinion with a catalyst of increasing complexity and tension.
