Mystic & Severe is a show dedicated to everything cinematic with a special emphasis on the score. Expect the typical and untypical all at once: reviews, interviews & music. Film music has a very rich history yet isolated soundtracks are not always appreciated by music enthusiasts. This show attempts to right that wrong by providing all the rich soundscapes from film ranging from classical, progressive rock and even hip hop. From the beautifully arranged to the crassly designed this show is here for lovers of both high and low art and at times the distinctions will be blurred.
