Gravity

about this album

Composer Steven Price was originally called in to help out for a couple of weeks on the music design of Gravity. After having a creative discussion with director Alfonso Cuarón, Price began coming up with a template of sounds and noises that eventually led to him being hired as the film's composer.As work began on the film's score, Cuarón and Price set ground rules for distancing the score from conventional Hollywood-style action scores such as omitting the use of percussion.“Ordinarily in an action film you’re often competing with explosions and god knows what else, whereas with this music could do things a different way,” said Price. “With everything we did we would try and look beyond the normal way of doing things. some of the action sequences where there are explosions, I knew that those explosions had to be inherent.” The score was recorded in small groups or single instruments as opposed to a collective orchestra in order for each sound to be electronically processed and mixed individually to create a layered and surrounding effect.
