The Green Knight, the latest stunner from visionary director David Lowery is one of the best films of the year so far. One of the highlights and main components of its presence is the haunting score from Daniel Hart.
This includes one of the thrilling standouts from the score, the eerie “One Year Hence” which plays out during a crucial moment of the movie and gives viewers the presence of the dark things that await us throughout its runtime.
Hart comments on “One Year Hence”:
The synth which enters halfway through ‘One Year Hence’ was the bulk of the demo, with some recorders and vocals layered on top in a couple places, much like the music which ended up in the film. David placed a version of that demo in the beheading scene first and liked it, and then I began to refine it, keeping the synth as its core. I had created that sound after just messing around on the Prophet for a couple hours, within the first week of taking it out of the box. I took notes on what I was doing, because I was so happy with it, and felt like I’d want to come back to it later on.
