Music For Final Cut

After deciding to make our opening sequence a crime caper, we decided the soundtrack needed to have class and style but with an edgy beat to it as well. We felt it was important for the soundtrack to not take itself too seriously, as to take away the whole aura of the genre. We based our soundtrack on the soundtrack of 'Hustle', a popular TV series that is in the same sub-genre as our own film opening.

The music itself, starts off as a lively piece, introducing the beat that will run throughout the soundtrack. The beat is a mix of normal and conga drums, which helps with its lively pace and edgy atmosphere. An 80's style dance synthesizer is then introduced in order to maintain the light-hearted soundtrack whilst introducing the main rhythm. Shortly after this a funky guitar riff is introduced. This gives the stylish sound that helps the listener compare with other soundtracks in the genre. This rhythm continues for a while and then breaks. The music breaks to avoid strenuous repetition.

We are happy with the soundtrack and believe that it is in keeping with the genre and wholly in keeping with the opening sequence.
