Track 2 of the Dracula sound track is out! Here is the Sound Designer Shane Young’s take 👇🏻

“In Bram Stoker’s Dracula and Dracula: A Comedy of Terrors, Dracula has power over wolves, among other creatures. In the Novel, Dracula even turns into a wolf, so I thought I should write a song that represents that side of the story.

The comedic element of the title is meant to reflect the show’s humor. I also wanted to incorporate elements of sound design in some of the songs, and this was a perfect opportunity to add wolf howls and some spooky ambience.

The steady driving beat represents the primal heart of the wolf, while the piano dancing through the song represents their whim and freedom.

And of course, the opening melody brings that spookiness that we often associate with creatures roaming the night. To tie it all together, I’ll use a quote from Dracula himself when speaking about the wolves howling outside his castle.”

“Listen to them, the children of the night. What music they make!”
