Welcome to the crisp, cleaner look of my new website. I’ve even got a handy new url alias for this blog: cueoftheweek.com .

Speaking revisiting old things with a layer of polish, this week’s music is the finale from my second feature film, a political thriller called The F-Zone. This new digitally remastered version brings out clarity and detail in the orchestra’s expressive performance.

This week’s selection is some visceral epic battle music. (Don’t worry, the forge area was cleaned up afterwards.)

This week’s selection is from the short supernatural thriller Healers. Agitated piano, cello harmonics, and an ethereal vocal line by Jennifer Lindsay contribute to the tense mood.

I trust that the cinematic function of this music isn’t too cryptic, given the title. This perky guitar rock instrumental accompanies a self-improvement binge in the film Siren. The build near the end corresponds to the protagonist’s triumphant breakthrough on the running track.

This week’s cue is a lyrical orchestral piece expressing both the grandeur of nature and the micro-bustle of a small settlement.
