Matthew Ulm | Music without a Film
This album is more cinematic, and leans into the film scoring work that I have always wanted to do. Some of these are more for fun than others. Some were very much experiments with the new Home Studio. This experiment is ongoing.
Song List
- Climbing the Stairs
- Pensive Movie Theme
- Gear Up
- Dark Future
- Scientific Robot Fight
- Progressive Perlenreise
- What if Hans Zimmer made Drum and Bass music instead?
I have always wanted to write music for film. But as I’ve grown older, navigated a career, and become a father, those “someday” opportunities started to feel further away.
This year, I decided to stop waiting for permission. Climbing the Stairs is the result of that shift—a cinematic, electronic instrumental born from the idea that if the film doesn’t exist yet, I’ll just have to build it around the music.
It’s atmospheric, mood-driven, and a little bit haunting. I’m currently editing the visual project that goes with this track, but I wanted to share the soundscape with you first.
Initial Experiments
This is the first album that I have written, arranged, produced, and most specifically engineered all from scratch. This is mostly in an electronic genre and is quite the departure from what people would normally see me play live.
