about

This is the last 20 or so minutes of a 45 minute atmospheric track which played as the audience came in to find their seats. The instructions were to make a piece of music which operated as scenery while building a sense of tension.

Each of the tracks made for this soundtrack were made with the possibility built in that things can go long, mistakes can happen, cues can be missed. The director and I came up with a way for each track and each sound effect to be played essentially over a soundboard so that cues could be fluid. Basically making the sound board operator more of a DJ than a traditional theatre sound tech.

This track gets especially tense in the last 5-10 minutes because I figured that if these extra minutes were ever to be heard in the house it would be because of actual tension in the house due to the show not being on time.

The knock at the end was the start of the show, regardless of how far into the "overture" track we got.

Musically, this is my unashamed dual love letter to Brian Eno's Thursday Afternoon and Disneyland's Tiki Gardens.
