Glasshouse Hymn

Neo-Noir Film Score · 2026 — a slow burn for a low-light drama, where every cue glows faintly through the glass.

Moody close-up of piano keys in dim light

The story

The film barely leaves its glass-walled house, so the score had to become the weather outside it. We wrote a fragile hymn first — voice and glass harmonica — then let it decay across the picture: muted piano for the daylight lies, bowed strings for everything unsaid.

By the final act the hymn returns almost unrecognizably, played on rain-worn synths under a single sustained string chord. Audiences hum it on the way out without knowing where they learned it.

Inside the score

  • A glass harmonica lead, recorded dry and close
  • Tape-worn synth beds that drift slightly out of tune
  • Felt-piano pulse under every dialogue scene
  • Full stems delivered for the final dub
