It&#8217;s built entirely from voice and drums; anything that doesn&#8217;t sound human is actually Amanda Achen&#8217;s voice, twisted and processed into something else. The track starts with a single voice that slowly multiplies and morphs, layering into an ostinato \u2014 a sonic idea that becomes the backbone of the whole score. Amanda sings throughout, always as April, and that opening transformation carries an emotional charge I didn&#8217;t fully understand until started working on the rest of the film. The title comes from the villain&#8217;s line after he realizes Bax and April have slipped away, and this version of the theme carries the motorcycle chase that follows, her voice pulling Bax forward through all the chaos.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>ABOUT APRIL X<\/p>\n<p>When his twin sister April (Lilly Krug) goes missing, Bax (Connor Storrie) searches every corner of their futuristic, post-Soviet cityscape to find her, ultimately descending into madness.<br \/>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/1Dbuam1jvw4?si=nsYR0eGIZIaS9sar\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>CONNECT WITH APRIL X on the official <a href=\"https:\/\/ymlps9.com\/37cb7esqeyataeqjesacajsqataejhbs\/click.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">WEBSITE<\/a>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Music Masterworks comprises Masterworks, Sony Classical, Milan Records, XXIM Records and Masterworks Broadway imprints.
