A piano-and-strings duo at a brisk 125bpm in C major, the shortest cue on the set and the most lyrical — a rolling keyboard figure with sustained string writing above it. Warm but shaded with melancholy, it suits a tender turn in a character story without overstaying its welcome.
Piano, strings and a low bass line in E-flat at 120bpm, leaning hopeful rather than mournful — the thaw implied by the title reads as gradual warming across three and a quarter minutes. Good for footage of recovery, change of circumstance or a return home.
The longest neoclassical cue here at just over four minutes, 100bpm in F, and the only one built on claps and light percussion under piano and strings — giving it a pulse and an ethereal shimmer the rest of the album lacks. Suits reflective montage that needs forward motion rather than stillness.
The outlier on the album: an ambient, downtempo bed at 110bpm in F built from ticking, drone, bass, wordless voices, synth and drums rather than piano and strings. Dark and struggling in tone, it works as an unresolved tension underscore for slow motion and timelapse rather than as a melodic cue.
Piano and strings joined by French horn and wider brass, 100bpm in C, the only cue on the album with a soaring lift written into it. Ethereal and hushed at the outset with room to open out — cut for wide landscape reveals and quietly heroic moments.
The fastest cue on the album at 145bpm, piano, strings and bass in A, running just over four minutes with a hopeful undertow. The quick pulse makes it the natural pick when a neoclassical texture needs to feel light and moving rather than static.
A four-minute build at 120bpm in E-flat that adds drums and electric guitar to the piano, strings and bass, making it the fullest and most band-driven arrangement on the album. Dark and somber but tagged inspiring — designed to grow from intimate opening into a wide-screen final section.
The slowest cue at 90bpm, stripped to piano and strings alone in C — the most spacious and unhurried thing on the album. Its sparse duo texture leaves clear room over the top, making it a dependable underscore for narration and quiet dialogue.
Piano and strings with a synth layer underneath, 120bpm in E-flat, giving the chamber writing a slightly modern hybrid sheen. Introspective and somber with the after-rain stillness the title suggests — good for contemplative footage that needs texture as well as melody.
