Breeze draws on senses felt throughout the human experience to create an eerie atmosphere which reflects uncertainty and provokes fear. Through the untraditional use of electronic instrumentation and the growing texture, a story of pain and fear creates action and a chilling mood. Inspired by Colin Stetson’s work on the film Hereditary, this piece provides a new perspective on horror film music.

Dysphoria draws on the experiences of the human condition as we search for meaning in our lives, to create an eerie piece which provokes feelings of uncertainty. This is created through innovative compositional techniques, including the use of the C Phrygian mode, to reflect a haunting, darker tonality, as well as the use of ⅞ metre, to create an uncomfortable, unstable feeling. Inspired by Sigur Ros, I wanted this piece to demonstrate a sense of mystery as the concept of isolation is explored. The timbre utilised in the piece mimics an ambiguity, with floating sounds which ring out to create a false idea of space.
