The score from Heart of the Beast, is \"\"<\/a>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\u2019ik-language singing, chanting, humming and drumming were recorded remotely. He merged these elements with ethereal vocals from the London-based choral ensemble London Voices.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Notes Fry: \u201cWith the music, I was looking for that deeper connection. In many ways, the music leans into James Belmont\u2019s (Brad Pitt) emotional struggle. It felt like a spiritual journey as he encounters something beyond himself and his own beliefs. In addition, as war veterans, James and his service dog, Odin, were both living with recurring PTSD.\u201d<\/p>\n
