When I got to mix the Auckland Philharmonia in a concert with so many highlights of Hans Zimmer’s career, I was very giddy. And it was a huge undertaking too. In order to turn the orchestra sound into a cinematic experience with band and synthesisers I had to use microphones on every player. Quickly I had ninety faders occupied under my fingers.
Soon after I arrived in New Zealand I started collaborating with NZ filmmakers Rajneel Singh and Craig Parkes. A psycho-thriller they were working on caught my attention and I turned the script into a concept album of predominantly atmospheric music . The music combines electronic and neo-classical elements and is inspired by minimalism. It really takes you for a ride and is melodic and relaxing.
