2020: March
20: MOTHERLAND: FORT SALEM score released MOTHERLAND: FORT SALEM was just released
digitally by Hollywood Records and is available to purchase
from Amazon or iTunes. The album includes roughly 40
minutes of original score composed by Brandon Roberts
and featuring vocal solos performed by Úyanga Bold (see
also Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark). Here is a little
quote from the soloist about the working process: "A joy
working with series composer Brandon Roberts, creator Eliot
Laurence and sound team to create the vocal sonic universe for
Motherland. (The protagonists use vocal spells and songs to
affect the world around them!) We recorded at Capital Records
and Marco Beltrami's studio the vocal spell effects and
special vocal music for the show (for example, there is a
scene where my layered vocals are the voices of the characters
joining together to call down rain while the sun is shining).
Overall, a thoughtful creative team process defining how the
spells and songs sound and work.
The brilliant Brandon wrote
beautifully captivating music for the series, of course. It
was a pleasure to sing (and throat sing, and sing like a wolf,
ululate, and more) for him, including for his gorgeous opening
main theme. We used and layered different voice colors to
simulate various characters and vocal spells throughout the
series. (Did I mention he is
brilliant?)."
2020: March 17: MOTHERLAND: FORT SALEM TVS While there are still no released dates
known for several upcoming projects, MOTHERLAND: FORT SALEM TV
series will finally premiere tomorrow on Free Form TV. The
series is scored by Brandon Roberts and you can already listen
to a few samples on his official
website and Kraft/Engel Management profile page, as well as check the
latest trailer below.

Beltrami. The project, which is directed by Michael Matthews
(Five Fingers for Marseilles) and based on the screenplay by
Matthew Robinson (The Invention of Lying), follows a young
hero (Dylan O'Brien) who learns how to survive a monster
apocalypse with the help of an expert hunter (Michael Rooker)
while trying to find his long lost former girlfriend (Jessica

working on the score for upcoming sequel A QUIET PLACE

who also wrote the screenplay. All surviving
cast members from the first movie will
return and the movie will also star Cillian Murphy,
Djimon Hounsou, Wayne Duvall and Lauren-Ashley Cristiano

Abbott family now face the terrors of the outside world. Forced
to venture into the unknown, they realize that the creatures that hunt
by sound are not the only threats that lurk beyond
the sand path. Paramount Pictures will release A QUIET PLACE: PART II on March
20th, 2020.
2019: December
17: Official Aftermovie 19th WSA (including BEN HUR) While promoting its 20th anniversary next
year (tickets for the closing night concert are already on sale), WSA has also released brief video
looking back on this year's edition. Included are a few
comments from Dirk Brossé as well as award winners John
Powell, Hildur Gudnadóttir, Michael Abels and more.
And also the main guest Marco Beltrami. The most
important aspect of the video is the actual performance
of previously never heard piece from BEN HUR
(orchestrated by Mikael Carlsson), which has never been
recorded or even performed until the event. Sadly the piece is
also missing from the CD, so this is the only opportunity to
hear at least a few fragments from this fantastic world
premiere, which starts at 0:41 and continues until the end of
the video.
