The Heart of the Scene
Contemporary Cinematic Ballads
A film’s peak scene, the cliffhanger of a series, the credits rolling after a breathtaking finale… they all need a song to empower their meaning.
And why not a ballad? A soft, melodic song can certainly enhance a passionate kiss on screen, but it can also provide contrast to a scene that has nothing to do with love.
We’ve put together a selection of ballads from our contemporary repertoire, sharing a cinematic and evocative vibe — songs that make you daydream while you watch the world go by from the car window, and which turn those fantasies into reality on screen.
In the mix, you’ll find tracks spanning from pop-jazz to electronic, singer-songwriter to downtempo, and neo-soul to post-wave.
Most of the lyrics are in English, but some tracks are sung in Italian and French… just to sparkle the selection with some Mediterranean vibes.
