Quixel Rebirth: UE4 (Music/SFX Only)

  • The music I composed for Quixel's State of Unreal 2019 short film: "Rebirth". I collaborated with Ice Musician Terje Isungset for the ice music aspects of the score. This particular ice came from the frozen rivers near Winnipeg, and Terje carved all the ice chimes and horns himself. Many of the decorative ice scultures were so large and heavy that tractors were needed to move them with the utmost care, or they could shatter. Amazingly, Peter Hargraves managed to transport the ice without any damage but took about 10 hours. I'd love to post some of the videos I took sometime.
    ICE MUSIC FACTS
    Because the instruments are ice, they will go out of tune if the temperature isn't cold enough, so we recorded everything in an ice rink at -5 c in Winnipeg. Outside, temperatures were consistently around -40C. At those temperatures your skin starts to burn if you're not covered properly. AS for the ice that was used to make the music, it is most certainly melted or destroyed at this point. Terje must make new instruments for each gig. It was an honor to work with him as well because he quite literally invented making musical instruments from ice 20 years ago. His music is mesmerizing and meditative, and can be found all over youtube by searching his name, which is pronounced like this: • Terje - How to Say Ter...
    THANK YOUS
    Tejre is a musician and composer I have looked up to for many years. Working with him was an honor.
    Engineering for the ice session was by Asle Karstad, who was amazing to work with.
    vocals were improvised and performed by Lena Nymark, a longtime collaborator of Terje's.
    Violin brilliantly performed by Javier Orrman.
    Mastering was handled by Alvin Yee. Thank you to Rozen for putting us in touch.
    Thanks to my team at Ember Lab Josh Grier and producer Julia Kernan for all their help with the logistics, and Quixel for believing in and funding this approach to the music. Teddy Bergsman, Galen Davis--thank you guys.

    I would definitively pay you a significant amount of money, If you would make a full track with this theme... The music is absolutely mind boggling! I get goosebumps every time... Such an amazing sound with so much colour and depth. Please make this reality. It would be an instant all time favourite!

      Unfortunately it was literally made with ice, and that ice is long gone. Multiple people were involved in making this song. Terje Isungset for the ice, Javier Orman with the violin, Lena Nymark did the vocals, and Alvin Wee in the mastering. It's unlikely they can all be regrouped to make a full version of the song.

    The man. The myth. The legend. Been following you since Time’s End and the sequel album. The 4 year gapped killed me but to know you’re still alive and making music is just fantastic. I know you’re hard at work and i’m not here to demand the next great masterpiece; i’m just here to say i love your work and all that you’ve created. I patiently await the next big thing you release and hope making music is going well for you as an individual.

      I imagine it's due to some corporate jargon in his contract (it was was made FOR this video, music without the video CZcams will give it a strike for duplicate music, etc.), so this was probably the easiest option available.
      Here's to hoping for a real release though!
