SALVAGE
In 2071, death is no longer permanent if a corporation decides you’re worth bringing back. Eli Harrow wakes in a body owned by Halcyon Systems, and he isn’t the first version of himself they’ve sent. A hybrid electronic-orchestral score, tense and mechanical, with something human underneath.
A sense of place
“I grew up at the foot of Warwickshire hills, in open country that I still carry with me. Once Pembrokeshire found me, it’s where I stayed, and where the music now comes from.”
