Description
Christopher von Deylen (SCHILLER) creates his own epic orchestral sound on "EPIC". Drawing inspiration from film music, SCHILLER combines his atmospheric electronic soundscapes with emotional orchestral arrangements to create an imaginary cinematic soundtrack. SCHILLER recorded the album together with a huge symphonic orchestra in famous Synchron Stage in Vienna, where Hans Zimmer or James Newton Howard have also recorded some of their scores. "Working with forty creative people was a breath-taking experience," SCHILLER says about the recording. "Although there are sound libraries with excellent orchestra samples, real instruments are fortunately irreplaceable. You immediately feel a wonderful, powerful energy. Being in a huge room full of collective creative power is incredibly inspiring. On ‘Epic’ I try to capture this mood and share it with the listeners." "EPIC" features twelve opulent tracks on which SCHILLER fuses his trademark sound with fantasy and fiction. Each track is a self-contained musical narrative with goosebumps guaranteed.
