- Invasion, written by esteemed film composer, Elik Alvarez. This was originally recorded by full orchestra, then our Strings team produced our own version (this excerpt) for comparison. According to Elik, our work represents “a viable alternative!” to a full string orchestra… (We think it’s particularly viable when you consider the cost savings!)
