Dawn
An Original ‘N’otion Picture Soundtrack by Keith Richie
Inspired by the novel Dawn by Octavia E. Butler

Dawn is a sweeping cinematic score based on the first book of the Lilith’s Brood trilogy by the legendary Octavia E. Butler. This album serves as my musical interpretation of her profound and haunting tale—one of loss, survival, and evolution.

The story follows Lilith Iyapo, who once lived peacefully with her family in the Andes Mountains—until a devastating nuclear war obliterated humanity. Centuries later, Lilith awakens aboard a mysterious alien vessel, under the watch of the Oankali—an advanced species driven by an instinct to heal and evolve through genetic merging. As the last remnants of humanity are studied and prepared for a second chance at life, not all agree with the terms of this new beginning.

With themes of love, sadness, hope, and conflict, the music in Dawn is meant to transport the listener—whether or not they’re familiar with the book. You’ll feel the quiet sorrow of a ruined Earth… the awe and unease of first contact… the strange, electric connection between Lilith and the Oankali being Nikanj… and the tension of a species on the brink of transformation.

This album is a journey through emotional and otherworldly landscapes, where humanity’s survival depends not on strength, but on change.

Dawn is a tribute to one of science fiction’s most powerful stories, and I’m honored to present it in musical form.

Not me

Original song by Dred Fouglas.

Lyrics:

Drifting down West 18th Street, Chicago
Oh, man, it's got me feelin' low, low, low
A sad-eyed bum's beggin' for change in the rain, rain, rain
Slurring the blues; the cheap city booze churning his brain
And it's low, low, low,
this Chicago Sorrow

Bitterly I watch the fuss of beeping cars,
they look like sewer rats trapped in jars
What a sorry way of life, one that money runs
We're all wasting away in concrete prisons
Yes, it's low, low, low, 
this Chicago Sorrow
And I can't shake it off,
can't shake it off, no,
the Chicago sorrow

Chicago Sorrow

A new strongly classical work I've composed and produced, this contains a mixture of piano and various orchestral instruments layered into an interesting, ambient composition that develops over time.

Eclipse

Trouble

Wrote this one about unrequited love. She stole my heart.

Scene Of The Crime

A demo of a collab with a bunch of genial wierdos in Berlin, with help from the amazing producer and bassplayer Kalle Enkelmann. 60’s Tarantino feel.
Close your Eyes and let me in, Melodie Für Barbara, the imaginal secret love of my Life.

Translucent

This is the first track of my new album (the 3rd one) that is called "HYMERA".
I like to believe the the music that I am proposing you to listen is more experimental and it's different from all what I did so far. For this album I used Ableton Live 10. 
I would highly appreciate your feedback, positive or negative, as it is helping me to make better music for you.
There are 8 tracks on this album and they will be released one at every two weeks.
Thank you for tacking the time to listen.
