Thriller Opening Sound Tracks

*to be decided in the editing process
we have chosen the songs listed below to create tension and suspense. They all start off calmly and slowly build up in tempo and volume.

Biko by Bloc Party
Televators by The Mars Volta
Golden by Fall Out Boy
The King by Hard-Fi
Ghouls by We are Scientists
Girls & Boys by The Subways
ID by Kasabian
Running Battle by Kasabian

After we came up with these choices, we found out that the music soundtrack could not be copyrighted. This meant that we couldn't use any of the above. We thought about creating our own soundtrack using Ian's music skills, until we came across a website that provided with a very atsmospheric, non-copyrighted soundtrack using stringed instruments, that builds up for tension and holds notes for suspense in the desired way we had planned.
The soundtrack that we will use is called Subhonmr b2 34 string from www.freesound.org.
The soundtrack from the film 'The Chamber' inspired us to make this decision, as it expresses their soundtrack in the same way that we will express ours.


Another idea of a soundtrack we debated using was Grey Snow by Josh Woodword (from www.joshwoodward.com)
