Director’s Statement on Insight’s Original Soundtrack
Statement from Livi Zheng & Ken Zheng:

'Insight is a movie that includes several different cultures and also a story with elements of science fiction. Therefore, it was impossible to imagine Insight without interweaving several different genres and categories of music.
The instrumentals that augmented Insight’s story were heavy on electronic synths, strings, brass and percussion. I choose these musical scores to fit with the diverse martial arts styles of action scenes.
We even used special compositions to highlight our use of drones and other modern weapons as props in the movie.
In the Warehouse Fight Club scene, staged in an underground caged fight in China, the music not only included the strings and brass but also the Guzheng, a traditional Chinese instrument.
In the Jian in Syria scene we used instruments such as the Qanun, Riq, Darbuka, & Zil to reflect the local culture of the scene while remaining authentic.
The soundtrack of Insight matches these scenes of the movie as an audio and visual is a journey through the world. '

Sid De La Cruz, Composer:
'The score for Insight was fun to create. It’s a hybrid of orchestral and synth instruments.
This is a bit different from my other scores in that it was requested not to use any woodwinds.
Also, there were some cues where high strings were not used as well. I had to be creative and think of other ways to approach the music.
Because the film deals with an element of science fiction, I feel that electronic instruments suit the film very well and help tell the story from the side of science fiction. Several of the cues tie in with photography of the film.
For instance, in the track, “Apartment Fight”, some of the fighting leads to the kitchen. In the score, there are metallic instruments that help simulate kitchenware, pots, pans, silverware, etc. In the track, “Jian in Syria”, uses Middle Eastern melodic and percussive instruments are introduced and take and help contribute to the action music.'
