Here is my soundtrack rework of this scene from the 'Alpha' movie, with a piece that also appears on the 'What Is Life?' album under The Owl project. It is an improvised piano piece, with the extra drone, dark ambient and minimal rhythmical industrial sound layers being made by manipulating field recordings of trains and cars passing by, me walking through mountain forests in Czech, and birds that sometimes gather for food on our window ledge. I hope you enjoy the combination of sounds and visuals that I felt fit rather perfectly. Thank you for watching.

About the film:
"ALPHA is an epic adventure set in the last Ice Age, Alpha is a fascinating, visually stunning story that shines a light on the origins of man's best friend. While on his first hunt with his tribe's most elite group, a young man is injured and must learn to survive alone in the wilderness. After the young man reluctantly tames a lone wolf abandoned by its pack, the pair learn to rely on each other and become unlikely allies, enduring countless dangers and overwhelming odds in order to find their way home before winter arrives."

About the album:
"What Is Life...? But A Series Of Journeys, Destinations, Tunnels And Pathways.
Asking questions.
Making statements.
Having fun and entertaining myself.
Discovering things about myself and others.
Never taking things for granted.
Never resting on my laurels
Always on the look out for new ideas, and making sounds I haven't heard anywhere else, at least in my own recordings.
Where there's tea, there's hope!
This album has had an 11 month roadtrip and countless revisions along the way (one of the most of my albums so far). It's a strange one mixing a variety of The Owl styles of experimental electronic synth piano ambient glitch abstract noise rhythmical soundscaping.
I hope you will give it chance to play as the end makes sense of the journey, I think!
