Short piece for Matka [Mother] was inspired by classical horror themes, with falling string drones, arpeggiated detuned synthesisers and abrasive bass sounds kicking at the culminating point, while maintaining modern inspirations from experimental ambient genre. Asymmetrical orchestration creates swirling effect, while synthesisers provide claustrophobic textures. The steady rhythm stops being replaced with oozing synths just before action kicks in, leaving viewers with sinking effect.
The theme serves as a turning point for the movie, when the story shows its true dark colours.
