A night chase through LED-lit streets. A cassette tape on a safehouse table. A bowl of ramen, and memories of a long-ago past. At long last, the score for the original short film Dilation is now available online!

This deluxe edition includes the full short film soundtrack, which flows in three continuous mixes. It also includes discontinuous mixes of each of the cues, as well as unreleased special edition tracks (two prototypes and extended mixes never released before, and two separate mixes of Short Fugue).

Thank you to everyone who supported me through this composing process, including Nick Peters, Patrick Gardner, Grant Huang, and Chris Thai (whose instruments appear at different places in this soundtrack), Stephen Heo for the incredible (animated!) cover art, the editing team for their remarkable persistence, Michael, Sam, and everyone in the Film and Photography Society. This film involved an incredible effort from an incredible network of people that I cannot fully describe - it's astounding to be chosen to put music to everyone's work, from production to finance to performance, and I can only hope this soundtrack approaches the quality of their work.

Here are the complete credits for the short film Dilation.
