The melody is sad and deep, as if the soul is quietly crying

Soul cries

Official Soundtrack Album Description

This album unfolds as a complete sonic journey, resonating with human drama and translating the profound story of a man confronting the inevitability of death into music that touches memory and emotion. The score was recorded with a distinctive orchestral spirit, blending modern textures with classical depth to reflect both inner tensions and poetic moments throughout the film.

Music and Narrative

The music does not merely accompany the picture but emerges as a fifth character in the story, voicing what words cannot express. It moves seamlessly from the intimacy of solo piano, to the hushed presence of strings, and into the full surge of the orchestra—tracing the emotional contours of existential struggle, isolation, and reflection.

Orchestral Approach

Strings convey human fragility and vulnerable moments.

Woodwinds add emotional depth and a dreamlike breath amid the harshness of reality.

Overall Tone of the Album

The soundtrack feels like a contemplative journey, traveling from silence to eruption, from fear to acceptance. More than a mere accompaniment, it stands alone as a musical experience—capable of evoking the film’s essence even apart from the screen. It unites a global cinematic sound with the unique spirit and atmosphere of Dubai and its desert landscapes.

The Assignment: Make music inspired by a line from A Wizard of Earthsea: “For a word to be spoken, there must be silence. Before, and after.”

Also on album "Hearken Beach".

Originally I just wanted to make five minutes of interchanching deep pad and noisy something, with a lot of non-silent space between them. I added some ambient field recordings in these spaces, because the name of the track was intended to be 'The Impossibility of Being Silent'.

But then my mi clouds produced some sounds of it's own and I liked it. At the end I had to reintroduce silence to all parts. All in all I hope this to be considered as a tentative approach to silence, with an increase towards the end.
