Australian sf thriller ALPHA GATEWAY soundtrack released by MovieScore Media
Following their release of ORBITER 9 last month, MovieScore Media releases yet another quality score from an intelligent indie sci-fi movie, this time the Australian ALPHA GATEWAY (aka The Gateway) with an engaging electronic score by Thomas E Rouch. Co-written and directed by John V. Soto, the film tells the story of Jane Chandler (Jacqueline McKenzie), a particle physicist grieving over the loss of her husband Matt (Myles Pollard) who had died in a car crash. Or had he? When Jane travels to a parallel world, she finds him again, but the initially joyful discovery will have dire consequences for her family….
“While very much a sci-fi film, our central characters’ journey is driven by a deep emotional desire, ” explains composer Thomas E Rouch. “It was important to me that the music really united the awe and scale of the science with the personal nature of her quest. To that end I was always seeking to find the balance in every cue, between light and dark, power and emotion, personal and universal.”
Check this one out if you are into scores with beautiful ambient and melodic soundscapes, elements of minimalism and cool analog space arpeggios!
