Inception: Music from the Motion Picture by Hans Zimmer
Inception: Music from the Motion Picture is Hans Zimmer's release from 2010, orchestral writing made to serve the screen. It runs to 49 minutes across 12 tracks on Reprise Records. I came to it well after release and have returned to it since.
Why listen?
The music is cinematic and patient, themes stated and turned over until they settle. The arrangements move between hush and swell, built to carry weight without words. It rewards close listening and works just as well in the background.
Favourite piece: Time
Time is the standout, the one that stays with you after the record ends. It earns its place on the album.
Key takeaway
Inception: Music from the Motion Picture is a fine place to start. Worth seeking out.
