Soundtrack review- Se7ev

After listening to the music from the opening credits of the movie 'Se7en', i have found that not all thriller films must have an orchestra featuring strings and powerful bass, a good example of this is the opening song to 'Se7en'. It features quite a lot of random sounds, with possibly some percussion instruments, however it lacks the original orchestra feel. The soundtrack has an 'electro' vibe to it, quite often seen in action films. Nevertheless it still creates a strong feeling of ambiguity, this poses questions for the viewer, which would later be answered in the film.
The soundtrack has flat tone at the beginning, while keeping a lot of texture, the first half of the song is very monotone as most of the sounds repeat over again. It could be considered strange for note-clusters to repeat as they are usually quite random, however it seems to me as if it is there do add a darker undertone. At around the 1 minute mark the volume and tempo iKill Bill- One of my favourite films of all time by my favourite director, Quentin Tarantino.  Since first watching this film i have found that although it is a thriller, I personally find it rather humorous.

 Breaking Bad, Crime, Thriller, Drama T.V show about a Chemistry teacher, turns Crystal Meth dealer to provide for his family in his last; cancer ridden years. Along with his ex-student, they deploy meth as well as building a drug empire. I found that these shows inspire me because they are not part of the norm, things that you would not usually find on T.v they challenge my interests and do not get boring, like a lot of shows do.

My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy and Indicud, two albums That inspire me, they also have a thrilling undertone. I think that these are my go to albums when it comes to boredom and the ones I listen to the most in order to get motivated.


The film Fight Club goes in depth with issues regarding human identity and social standings; as well as being rather mindlessly violent you learn quite a lot about the issues certain people face. Plus the film is very entertaining.
ncreases drastically as drums and deeper base are introduced, this instigates a feeling of incoming danger and tells the viewer that the film will be very dynamic, however it does not reveal anything of importance. 
I do believe that some sort of guitar 'shredding' could be present however I can not be sure. I think that a lot of the music is electronically generated, it also does not feature any lyrics.
I would personally describe this piece as quite mystical and somewhat 'sci-fi' because it features sounds that you would usually associate with films that feature some kind of extra terrestrial activity, which could be a big clue. I picked a soundtrack of a film that I have not watched because I wanted to focus on just the music and what it could connote, whereas if I had watched the film I would have been tempted to alter my opinion based on the story line and content of the film.
