Animator responses: Davis Fang
The animator, Davis Fang, responds to a selection of the new soundtracks.
Philip Charley: I adore this interpretation of the animation. With a far darker tone than the original piece, I hear hints of Bachβs Toccata and Fugue in D minor which is perfect for Halloween!

Quianjun Wan: This piece has a beautiful duality to it. Beginning with influences of a modern techno pop, it soon transitions into a soothing piece that would be appropriate for a music-box. The transition from the music of young adulthood to the innocence of the celeste (I think) piece I feel is like a reverse bildungsroman, a look back at oneβs coming of age story. Framed by the heartbeats at the beginning and end, it is an interpretation of the piece that represents the stages of oneβs life.

Laura Bunting: Whatβs most striking about this piece is how it has managed to create a story out of the seemingly random sequence of imagery. Recounting the birth and first few months of a childβs life, I adore how it breathes new life into the animation. It is beautifully mixed and recorded as well.
