Ten Years Ago
STYE973 · Sentient · Gabriel Johan David Oberg
4:43·64 bpm·B flatm·5 versions
Soundtrack, Film ScoreCinematic, Emotional, Ethereal

A slow 64bpm B flat minor memory piece built on cello and string quartet writing, arpeggiated synth and choir, with trailer drums giving the later stretches weight. Nearly five minutes long, so it has room to move from intimate reflection to a full percussive swell — suited to flashback and retrospective storytelling.

Sentient
STYE973 · Sentient · Gabriel Johan David Oberg
4:41·59 bpm·B flat·3 versions
Soundtrack, Film ScoreCinematic, Emotional, Ethereal

The title cue and the sparsest thing here: cello, strings, synth pads and light percussion at 59bpm in B flat major, with no choir or trailer drums listed. Warm and unhurried rather than climactic, it holds a steady reflective plateau across four and a half minutes and leaves plenty of headroom for narration.

Starchildren
STYE973 · Sentient · Gabriel Johan David Oberg
4:12·61 bpm·E flat·5 versions
Soundtrack, Film ScoreCinematic, Emotional, Ethereal

Bright E flat major at 61bpm with the album's fullest palette — piano, cello, strings, arpeggiated synth, choir and trailer drums — giving it an angelic, soaring lift. Four minutes of steady rise makes it a natural fit for wonder-and-discovery footage: night skies, children, space imagery.

Three Trees
STYE973 · Sentient · Gabriel Johan David Oberg
5:10·58 bpm·Em·3 versions
Soundtrack, Film ScoreCinematic, Emotional, Ethereal

The longest of the minor-key cues at 5:10, sitting in E minor at 58bpm with cello, strings, pulsing synth arpeggio and trailer drums but no piano or choir. Sombre and rooted, it grows patiently toward a percussive peak — good for pastoral or historical footage that needs gravity rather than sweetness.

Tin And Gold
STYE973 · Sentient · Gabriel Johan David Oberg
4:07·60 bpm·B flat·5 versions
Soundtrack, Film ScoreCinematic, Emotional, Ethereal

The widest orchestration on the record: B flat major at 60bpm with piano, cello, strings, brass, choir, arpeggio and trailer drums packed into a tight four minutes. The added brass pushes it toward heroic rather than merely reflective, so it works where the picture needs an unambiguous emotional payoff.

Such Heights
STYE973 · Sentient · Gabriel Johan David Oberg
3:46·62 bpm·Em·5 versions
Soundtrack, Film ScoreCinematic, Emotional, Ethereal

At 3:45 this is the shortest cue and the most efficient climb — E minor at 62bpm, with piano, cello, strings, arpeggiated synth, choir and trailer drums moving from intimate to soaring without a long introduction. The compact shape suits a cut-down or a promo that needs to peak fast.

Town From Above
STYE973 · Sentient · Gabriel Johan David Oberg
4:09·65 bpm·Em·5 versions
Soundtrack, Film ScoreCinematic, Emotional, Ethereal

E flat... in fact E minor at a slightly brisker 65bpm, with piano, cello, strings, choir and trailer drums but no synth arpeggio, so the pulse comes from percussion and piano rather than sequencing. The result is a more classical, less electronic aerial mood across four minutes.

Seeing The Sun
STYE973 · Sentient · Gabriel Johan David Oberg
4:11·53 bpm·E flatm·5 versions
Soundtrack, Film ScoreCinematic, Emotional, Ethereal

The slowest minor cue at 53bpm in E flat minor, with cello, strings, arpeggiated synth, choir and trailer drums and no piano. Dark and glacial to begin with, it lifts toward a hopeful choral brightness — a dawn-after-hardship cue for footage of recovery or first light.

Traditions
STYE973 · Sentient · Gabriel Johan David Oberg
3:50·65 bpm·Fm·5 versions
Soundtrack, Film ScoreCinematic, Emotional, Ethereal

F minor at 65bpm, one of the faster and shorter pieces at 3:50, combining cello, strings, arpeggio, choir and trailer drums into a solemn, ritual-feeling build. The minor key and title point at heritage, ceremony and folk custom rather than open landscape.

Tellus
STYE973 · Sentient · Gabriel Johan David Oberg
5:23·50 bpm·A·3 versions
Soundtrack, Film ScoreCinematic, Emotional, Ethereal

The album's longest and slowest cue — 5:22 at 50bpm in A major — scored down to cello, strings, synth and light percussion with no choir or trailer drums. It stays broad, calm and unhurried throughout, functioning more as an underscore bed for narration and long-form imagery than as a build to a hit.
