Still so proud of the entire team involved in this project - bringing @steveyg.bsky.social ‘s inspired music to life. Strings/Winds/Choir recorded on the opposite side of the planet to brass/percussion/crumhorns - in a variety of studios, but coming together as a unified whole.

“Stephen Gallagher’s familiar choir-like score may well send chills down your spine.” Variety

I had the pleasure of mixing some of Alex Mandel’s score, and the end title song, for this incredibly moving film. Soundtrack Album coming soon.

Many thanks for the gift @steveyg.bsky.social - now I have the night sky in the studio - well at least the part one can see in London!

#ultramanrising score Part 4: an interlude before getting to brass and Taiko - tools of the trade - key components of my set-up. With custom shock mounts for the three #sankenmicrophones CUX-100K made by my long-retired father.

#ultramanrising score Part 3: I don’t have any shots of the winds in action so this will have to suffice. Spot mics only as there is enough “space” with leakage, and I didn’t want to capture any more of the booth than necessary. Strings in Hall and Harp in other booth.

#ultramanrising score Part 2: #hughwebb in right booth during string/wind sessions. The primary harp pickup was an SF24V, with an alternative of MKH800’s. The Royer provided a rich tactile sound for many of the solo harp lines played close to the soundboard - creating a koto-like effect.

Looking back on our scoring sessions for Scot Stafford’s #ultramanrising score. Part 1: fifty piece string section at Air Lyndhurst - was very happy with basses in the middle which I hadn’t had the right opportunity to do before - but have long wanted to!
