“Seclusion Drive” is driven by melodic dissolves and brisk pace that suggests a curving path with a hint of mystery and menace ahead underneath a spirit of exuberance. Since it’s part of the soundtrack to a forthcoming thriller called Hidden Valley Place (album out now on composer Pau Terry’s own SkyBabyRecords imprint) it has a vibe similar to the music Pino Donaggio has written for various films across his long career but especially his scores for the films of Brian De Palma, think Body Double and Dressed To Kill where the music has a romantic quality, lushly produced and arranged with dreamlike, bright melodies and also functioning as a fine transition and contrasting complement to the darker elements of those movies. One wonders what nefarious places of the plot “Seclusion Drive” with its suggestive title might lead in the context of the film. But separate from that use of the music it’s a soothing listen that takes the mind to a daydreamy state. Terry has been a prolific composer for various works in television and film like Sidney & Friends, Emily and Care and his work for Hidden Valley Place sounds essential to helping make the twist in the movie more dramatic.
