Completed Soundtrack/ Score

I have completed the Score for 'The Keep' high concept pre-production project. As stated in previous posts, this was only to be a partial score that would not cover the entire track listing. However, I do believe that the tracks I had chosen to create do provide the most range between what I could achieve musically given the specific inspiration of films set during the Second World War.

Here is a screenshot of the album and its track listing as shown via iTunes:


And also a quick album cover that I created for the purposes of the following Youtube video:


I have uploaded the completed partial score onto Youtube. However, please note that these act mostly as demo version of what these tracks could be and are not representatiove of a professional production:



Also, I have uploaded a video containing several unused tracks created during the development of my ideas for the score in oder to show that development, including the original 80s version I had first created before switching inspirations to older war films:


I am mostly happy with what I was able to achieve. Due to being only part of the pre-production package, I had to spread time between doing various other aspects of the project, meaning that I perhaps did not spend as much time as I had wanted to on this. Some of the tracks do feel a little rushed and I find it is sometimes easy to tell which tracks I spent more time on as they are more musically developed.

However, I feel that I was successful in conveying the style that I was hoping for and works well when put alongside the visual elements as well. I'm also happy with the sound of the music itself, considering I did not actually use an orchestra and was just using synthesizers to mimic that sound.
