Modern, epic hybrid action/adventure/drama track with a great buildup. Starts out tense and edgy with cellos, analog synth and electronic drums and builds until 1:25, adding horns, strings and percussion, then takes of into an all out grand, heroic, epic adventure track. Like the Oblivion soundtrack by M83.
