The score from Heart of the Beast, is 
the third for director David Ayer, reflects both the danger and vastness of the external forces the protagonist faces while reaching into his most intimate emotional life. Fry incorporated a 50-piece ensemble from the London Contemporary Orchestra. Additionally, he combined cultures and traditions with Inuit, Eastern and other world-music influences. To provide an authentic, culturally specific foundation for the score, Fry brought in the award-winning Alaskan Inuit group Pamyua, whose vocalizations, Yup’ik-language singing, chanting, humming and drumming were recorded remotely. He merged these elements with ethereal vocals from the London-based choral ensemble London Voices.

Soundwaves: Bad Apples Original Score Soundtrack Available Now from Invada
Invada Records today released
the Original Score Soundtrack for Paramount’s darkly satirical thriller Bad Apples, starring Saoirse Ronan.

Arriving alongside the movie’s global theatrical premiere today, the complete soundtrack is available now across all major digital streaming platforms.
Director Jonatan Etzler shares “What I love about Chris’ music is that he is a classically trained composer, but he is very interested in pushing the boundaries of what you can do. He’s a calm controlled guy, but his music has a real cheekiness and a very crazy, absurdist feel to it that I just respond really well too and I think works really well for this film.”

Soundwaves: Back Lot Music has Released the Original Motion Picture Soundtrack for The Uprising
Back Lot Music announces the release 
of Focus Features’ THE UPRISING Original Motion Picture Soundtrack with music by Academy Award®-winning composer Volker Bertelmann. The album is available everywhere digital music is sold and streamed.
“Working on THE UPRISING in collaboration with Paul Greengrass was a wonderful experience. The biggest challenge was finding a modern approach to a medieval era and capturing the rawness of that time without veering into the thriller genre,” Bertelmann notes. “I worked with distorted cello sounds to make the score feel more dystopian, while at the same time giving it a touch of a modern bagpipe atmosphere to lend the music a hint of a tribal character. Much of medieval music revolves around a simple fifth, and I tried to retain this as a fundamental foundation. I love the story of THE UPRISING because it draws many parallels with the present day and offers insights into how power was wielded in political life centuries ago and the similarities we see today. It’s a pleasure to be a creative part of this film.”
