Hollywood Records in conjunction \"\"<\/a>with National Geographic Documentary Films announce the release today of Time and Water–Original Motion Picture Soundtrack featuring music by electronic musician and composer Dan Deacon. Deacon provides a buoyant and transcendent score that reflects the stunning and ever evolving Icelandic glaciers and the poignant stories of the people profiled in the documentary film directed by Sara Dosa.  Time and Water is streaming now on Disney+ and Hulu.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Notes Deacon: \u201cI work on a lot of non-fictional films on heavy subjects, but this film was especially emotional for me. The combination of personal and existential loss was a lot to wrap my head around. Director Sara Dosa, with her unique sensitivities and visions, really opened up parts of my musical mind I didn\u2019t know existed. Collaborating with Sara, music editor Chester Gwazda, and the brilliant editing team helped us find a musical vocabulary to accompany the vast range of the story’s core elements: a love letter, a time capsule, the stages of grief and loss, the sci-fi present, mythological fantasy, the massive natural wonders, and Andri\u2019s own personality and quirks. Finding the music and composing this film were just as much a dynamic, emotive ride for me.\u201d<\/p>\n

Adds Sara Dosa: \u201cTo me, it really feels like Dan brings his whole heart to the work. His score doesn\u2019t just accompany the film, it expands and deepens it. He has a way of taking an emotion and making it feel vast, magical, and visceral all at once, which felt so aligned with a story about love, time, and something as massive and at once fragile as glaciers. His artistry holds both immensity and the intimacy simultaneously, a tonal balance we were searching for as we explored themes of time travel, ecological grief, and cultural transmission and personal memory.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cOne of the things that struck me most in the process was how detailed and thoughtful he was about the film\u2019s thematic and narrative layers. He listened closely not just to the story, but to the glaciers and Iceland’s cultural heritage, as well. He engaged with its rhythms and textures, and with the Icelandic r\u00edmur (epic rhyming folksongs) woven through the film, incorporating those melodies into his compositions in a way that added extraordinary richness and dimensionality.\u201d<\/p>\n

About Time and Water<\/p>\n
