The
Tarsem Singh
-directed sci-fi thriller Self/less features a tense, needling score full of driving percussion, electronics, horns, and strings, as well as spare, suspenseful dissonance and effects formulated by composer/songwriter
Antonio Pinto
(Amy, City of God) and composer/electronic artist
Dudu Aram
, both from Brazil. Midway through the soundtrack, the brief "Learning to Swim" offers a delicate melodic-harmonic keyboard piece, a respite from the unsettling tone of the rest of the score, which also has Argentinian DJ/producer/composer
Gabriel Ferreira
contributing to a few tracks.
Self/less [Original Motion Picture Soundtrack]
was released by
