The Trailer for the animation film "Giant and the Seed" is now available on youtube. It was a magical experience writing music for this project. We were lucky to record the music with a string quartet, which gave the film a both unique and intimate character. The sound of 4 string players in one room can be extremely versatile. We used the full range of possibilities in the film. Harsh tremolos, soft melodic lines - even an extremely dissonant downtuned part were part of the soundtrack.
