3:27·130 bpm·Dm·3 versions
Neoclassical, CinematicCold, Dark, Drama

The album's coldest opening statement: a plain D minor piano figure over a low drone, with strings and a restrained beat holding the pulse rather than driving it. It sits in unresolved, investigative territory throughout, better suited to atmosphere than payoff.

2:57·134 bpm·Dm·4 versions
Neoclassical, CinematicBeautiful, Cold, Dark

Piano and cello lead this D minor cue, with drone underneath and a pulsing beat that gives it more forward motion than the album's slower entries. Its shortest running time and cello-led warmth make it the most compact emotional statement here — haunting but with a thread of hope.

EDMBeautiful, Cold, Drama

The one track on the album filed as electronic: A minor piano and strings over drone, with synth and a pulsing beat pushing it toward a downtempo electronic feel at a relaxed 118. Cold and dreamlike but with a clear rhythmic spine, it suits footage that needs both introspection and momentum.

Granular
STYE525 · Frozen Piano Soundscapes · Mary Beth Ancheta, Daniel Kearley
3:32·153 bpm·Dm·3 versions
Neoclassical, CinematicBeautiful, Cold, Dark

At 153 BPM the fastest of the D minor cues, with piano fragments over drone and strings and a busy, insistent beat — the title's suggestion of granular texture matches its restless surface. Darker and more agitated than its neighbours, useful when a scene needs urgency without volume.

Stretched

3:14·118 bpm·Em·5 versions
Neoclassical, AmbientBeautiful, Cold, Dark

An E minor piece at a measured 118, distinguished from the rest of the album by added noise textures sitting alongside the piano, drone and strings. It stays cold and suspended, the beat pulsing rather than resolving, with processed grit giving it an unsettled edge.

Last Fix
STYE525 · Frozen Piano Soundscapes · Mary Beth Ancheta, Daniel Kearley
3:28·127 bpm·F·2 versions
Neoclassical, CinematicBeautiful, Cold, Dark

F major shifts this one out of the album's minor-key gloom into something more open and heavenly, even as the title points to addiction and relapse. Piano and strings over drone with a steady mid-tempo beat, ending as one of the album's more consoling cues.

3:08·154 bpm·G·1 versions
Neoclassical, CinematicBeautiful, Cold, Dark

Bright G major over an urgent 154 BPM pulse, piano and strings above a drone with a driving beat — the album's most propulsive major-key cue. Clinical and forward-moving, it suits precision and process footage more than emotion.

Within The Green Line
STYE525 · Frozen Piano Soundscapes · Mary Beth Ancheta, Daniel Kearley
3:40·163 bpm·B flat·4 versions
Neoclassical, CinematicBeautiful, Blooming, Curious

The fastest cue on the album at 163 BPM and the longest at nearly three and a half minutes, in a warm B flat with piano, strings, drone and an insistent beat. Curious and blooming rather than wintry, it carries a sense of crossing a boundary in line with its title.

Take Me As I Am
STYE525 · Frozen Piano Soundscapes · Mary Beth Ancheta, Daniel Kearley
3:39·120 bpm·B flat·5 versions
Neoclassical, CinematicBeautiful, Blooming, Curious

A gentler B flat cue at 120 BPM, piano and strings over drone with an unhurried pulsing beat across three and a half minutes. Its title and blooming, hopeful character make it the album's clearest acceptance-and-self-worth piece.

Hardwired
STYE525 · Frozen Piano Soundscapes · Mary Beth Ancheta, Daniel Kearley
3:29·117 bpm·Am·3 versions
Neoclassical, CinematicBeautiful, Blooming, Curious

A minor at a slow-burning 117 BPM, with wordless vocal colour added to the piano, strings and drone — one of only two vocal cues here. The pairing of a mechanical title with breathing human voice suits stories about technology and the people inside it.

Floating Tears
STYE525 · Frozen Piano Soundscapes · Mary Beth Ancheta, Daniel Kearley
3:22·152 bpm·F·5 versions
Neoclassical, CinematicBeautiful, Blooming, Curious

Fast at 152 BPM and bright in F, this one adds a full drum kit to the piano, strings and drone for a more driven, kit-led feel than the album's programmed beats. Emotional and cascading, it works where sorrow needs forward energy rather than stillness.

Winter Is My Last Goodbye
STYE525 · Frozen Piano Soundscapes · Mary Beth Ancheta, Daniel Kearley
3:05·144 bpm·B flat·2 versions
Neoclassical, CinematicBeautiful, Blooming, Curious

The album's fullest arrangement and its closing farewell: piano, strings, drone, drums, vocals and flute in B flat at 144 BPM, all inside a tight three minutes. The wintry title against blooming, hopeful harmony makes it a natural end-credits or letting-go cue.
