A subdued drum beat is accompanied by the light tapping of a tambourine. Underneath it all, deep voices thrum. A flute’s melody snakes its way into the song, conjuring images of deserts and oases, before being cut by a powerful horn and low menacing cello. The song builds in intensity, as the drums become powerful. The mood is perilous and inquisitive, creating the sense that each step forward is bringing one closer to hidden wonders and ancient dangers.
