Original Motion Picture Soundtrack
Directed by Curtis Vowell
Cast Nicola Coughlan, Aimee Lou Wood, Nick Frost…
Music by Rael Jones
“A female-led
comedy set in Britain during the Dark Ages, Seize Them! sees Queen Dagan (Aimee Lou Wood) as
master of all she surveys, with an ego to match—until she’s toppled by a
revolution led by the charismatic Humble Joan (Nicola Coughlan). The Queen
becomes a fugitive in her own land, a hefty bounty on her head. With the help
of Shulmay (Lolly Adefope), a former servant with a lot of secrets—and Bobik
(Nick Frost), a shit-shoveler who wants more out of life—Queen Dagan must face
every conceivable hardship and danger as she embarks on a voyage to win back
her throne. She also has to face up to the very worst parts of herself. Can she
become Queen again? And can she become a better person while she does it? And
what if she has to choose?”
We knew the music was always going to be such an important part of Seize Them! Rael Jones had the technical mastery as well as the understanding of medieval instruments. Throughout the whole process, he always found unique ways of making the music accessible and fresh to a modern audience.
It was a dream to sit with him in a recording studio surrounded by his weird and wonderful medieval instruments and watch him ground the film in the period but with a contemporary spin, to create a sound that felt brand new.
We worked hard to let the score guide and be guided by the delicate mix
of humour and heart which is what makes Seize Them! so special.
