The Waltz of the Dead

A slower, more pensive drama theme. Repeating vibraphone motif leads to dark solo strings that combine feelings of terror, love and paranoia. Theremin and string shorts fill out the arrangement as the intensity gradually builds.

A fantasy carnival track. Bouncy and light due to the musicbox, chimes and bells, as well as the rhythmic orchestration, the piece conjures up images of quirkiness and dark humour.

A mysterious mix of classical and electronic styles to create a solemn, ambient vibe. A pulsing kick drum beat adds tension and movement under the suspense of light strings and an enchanting  female vocal melody, enhanced by light brass, harp and vibraphone to blossom into the finale. Dreamily dark, sinisterly intriguing and a little bit mesmerizing.

Soothingly haunted piano instrumental, backed by strings and harp. Slow and intense, with piano parts ranging from simple arpeggios to virtuosic runs, it's beautifully crafted to give the impression of elegance and subtlety with a darker, unseen edge lurking nearby. Drama, suspense, reflection and tension are the key ingredients to this minimalist track.

Soothing but mysterious orchestral track. Arpeggiated piano and strings start classically, but a theremin lead takes things to an unexpected level of mystical contrast. Elegance and majesty is constant due to the warm orchestration throughout, with a deliberate unease and suspense created by the unusual instrumentation and melodies.  

Orchestral carnival theme with a sense of the macabre. Very animated, with all the instruments of the orchestra featured for a dynamic and at times, deliberately hectic and manic feel, it captures both the fun, comical side of the circus with the darker, more horror themed associations we've come to see on the big screen. Hauntingly enjoyable.
