Description
Oscar-nominated composer Max Richter's new album While The Flood Rages will be released on 16th October via Decca Records.
Drawn from Richter's latest collaboration with choreographer Wayne McGregor, MaddAddam, the album is reworked into a standalone listening experience inspired by Margaret Atwood's trilogy.
Across 15 tracks split into three acts, Richter blends orchestral writing, electronics, processed field recordings, choir and piano to create an immersive sonic journey.
Themes of ecological collapse, technological acceleration and resilience run throughout, with recurring piano motifs providing moments of reflection amid dense, cinematic soundscapes.
Highlights include the ocean-inspired opener "Wave After Wave," the electronic textures of "Eerie Music," the intimate title track "While The Flood Rages", and the luminous closing single "Now We Can Sing," which ends the album on a note of hope and collective endurance.
