How’s that for a grim cue name? Don’t worry, this week’s cue picks up in optimism after its melancholy bassoon-solo opening. Composed for a cut scene in Empire Earth 2, and performed by the Budapest Film Orchestra.

A Dark Future | |
This week’s cue comes from the most distant recesses of my hard drive. It’s a nod to the Godfather of Soul from a short film I scored when I must have been fresh out of USC. Please feel encouraged to get on up and/or down as your mood dictates.

Birthday Girl | |
This week’s selection is military/heroic cut-scene music from the game Empire Earth 2. Each faction in the game had its own musical motif; the American theme is tucked away at the very end of the cue, played by the cellos.

The Troops Arrive | |
This week’s selection is a mystery/suspense orchestral cue from the time-travel film Against Time. This cue is on the quiet and subtle side, but the details have been brought out and given a new coat of polish, thanks to the magic of digital remastering.
