STAR WARS - THE FALCON'S FIRST FLIGHT

2018

A good friend sent us a heartfelt text about how we should compose a theme for the Millennium Falcon's first flight & instantly felt inspired. We thought about Han entering the launch bay for the first time - all the sights and emotions that captivated him in that moment. The look on his face as he stares in awe of the controls...an emotional glimpse into the future, showcasing the adventures that lie ahead. The Falcon with him every step of the way, a fierce and loyal friend eager to soar into the depths of the galaxy. What an amazing bond these two form - that is what we set out to capture. 

We composed this prior to the release of the film but couldn't quite get it done before the movie hit theaters. We haven't seen the movie or heard the original score yet!
