Requiem For The Lost
STYE940 · Mystical Choirs · Alexander Okunev
3:12·80 bpm·Dm·2 versions
Orchestral, SoundtrackAngelic, Dark, Fantasy

A funereal 80bpm D minor choir score built on sustained strings, bells, scrapes and solo female voice over trailer drums and heavy percussion. It moves from hushed lament to a full-throated sacred climax, with the bells giving it a distinctly liturgical, memorial character. Suits mass-grave reveals, battlefield aftermath and requiem sequences in historical or fantasy drama.

Million Years BC
STYE940 · Mystical Choirs · Alexander Okunev
3:03·160 bpm·Em·2 versions
Orchestral, SoundtrackAngelic, Dark, Emotional

The fastest and most primal cue here: 160bpm in E minor with driving sticks, trailer drums and pounding percussion under dark choir and female vocal lines. Strings and scrapes push a relentless prehistoric chase energy rather than a hymn-like calm. Built for trailer cutdowns, hunts, stampedes and prehistoric or tribal action footage.

Contemplate
STYE940 · Mystical Choirs · Alexander Okunev
3:17·100 bpm·Gm·2 versions
Orchestral, TrailerAngelic, Dark, Emotional

A mid-tempo 100bpm G minor choir piece with sticks, trailer drums and layered strings, more reflective than combative despite its dark colouring. The Norse-leaning percussion and holy choral pads give it a brooding, weighing-the-cost quality that grows across three minutes. Good for a warrior's decision, council scenes or a documentary passage on faith and ritual.

Elven Story
STYE940 · Mystical Choirs · Alexander Okunev
3:01·134 bpm·Gm·2 versions
Orchestral, SoundtrackAngelic, Dark, Emotional

Brisk 134bpm G minor score pairing angelic choir with sticks, trailer drums and urgent string figures — the same tonal world as the slower G minor cues but with forward motion. Its three-minute run and steady drive suit journey and pursuit footage rather than mourning. Fits an elven or mythic quest montage, or a trailer that needs momentum under narration.

Voice Of A Desert
STYE940 · Mystical Choirs · Alexander Okunev
3:02·90 bpm·Am·2 versions
Orchestral, SoundtrackAngelic, Dark, Emotional

The one overtly world-flavoured cue on the album: 90bpm A minor with solo flute threading over dark choir, strings, scrapes and trailer percussion. The flute lends an arid, Middle-Eastern mysticism that separates it from the album's European sacred tone. Ideal for desert crossings, ancient-civilisation documentaries and mysterious temple reveals.

New Earth
STYE940 · Mystical Choirs · Alexander Okunev
4:07·100 bpm·Gm·2 versions
Orchestral, SoundtrackAngelic, Dark, Fantasy

At 4:06 the longest cue here, a 100bpm G minor choral score with strings, scrapes, trailer drums and percussion and no solo vocal lead. The extra length allows a slow ominous-to-awestruck arc, fitting a world-forming or aftermath reveal. Works well as a long-form bed for documentary narration about landscapes, empires or cataclysm.

Hope Dies Last
STYE940 · Mystical Choirs · Alexander Okunev
2:57·160 bpm·Cm·2 versions
Orchestral, SoundtrackAngelic, Dark, Emotional

Fast 160bpm C minor score with female vocal over dark choir, driving strings, trailer drums and heavy percussion — desperate rather than triumphant. The shortest track on the album at 2:56, it plays as a last-stand or final-push cue. Suits climactic battle footage, sports comeback edits and trailer end sections.

Lost Soul
STYE940 · Mystical Choirs · Alexander Okunev
3:18·80 bpm·Am·2 versions
Orchestral, SoundtrackAngelic, Dark, Emotional

Slow 80bpm A minor cue where dark choir and sustained strings sit over sparse scrapes and distant trailer drums, mysterious and mournful without a vocal soloist. The pace leaves it as an atmosphere piece more than a statement, gradually thickening across its three minutes. Good for haunted locations, grief scenes and true-crime or paranormal narration.

Night Glow
STYE940 · Mystical Choirs · Alexander Okunev
3:30·111 bpm·Cm·2 versions
Orchestral, SoundtrackAngelic, Dark, Fantasy

A 111bpm C minor nocturne: ominous choir over strings, scrapes and trailer percussion, mysterious rather than emotional in its tagging. Its 3:29 length gives room for a slow nighttime build and release. Fits night surveillance, torchlit ritual scenes and eerie establishing shots.

Voodoo Priest
STYE940 · Mystical Choirs · Alexander Okunev
3:01·90 bpm·Cm·1 versions
Orchestral, SoundtrackAngelic, Dark, Emotional

A 90bpm C minor ritual cue leaning on percussion, trailer drums and scrapes beneath dark, holy-sounding choir. The title points the same orchestral palette toward occult ceremony rather than cathedral piety, with a steady incantatory pulse. Use for voodoo or cult sequences, sinister ritual reveals and folk-horror documentary segments.
