Speculative Rescores
Two alternative musical approaches to the ‘World at Still’ scene from The Worst Person In The World: one led by lyrical storytelling and contrast between Julie’s relationships, the other driven by physicality, repetition, and momentum. Both aim to preserve the scene’s emotional ambiguity while prioritising music that’s led by the scene rather than imposed on it and editorial flexibility over obvious emotional signalling.
This rescore explores alternative approaches to scoring a dialogue-heavy, memory-fragmented scene from the Safdie brothers’ Good Time. Rather than attempting to mirror the film’s original electronic score, the aim was to preserve its anxious momentum while reimagining the emotional pressure through more physical and organic sounds. Care was also taken to not overpower the scene’s already dense sound design.

A More Focused Dune Soundtrack
Dune survived its David Lynch detour because Herbert’s timeless story imagined a distant future which refused technology. Rather than leaning on established blockbuster sonics, my rescore imagines Dune through a sonic language grounded in organic sound and system-driven processes, with contemporary elements providing a subtle sci-fi edge.
