]]> The score for Ohad Milstein’s “Summer Nights”—winner of both the Docaviv and Ophir awards for Best Israeli Documentary—is built on radical minimalism and acoustic intimacy. Centered around close-mic’d felt piano, mechanical wooden textures, and impressionistic harmonic drift, the music operates as a quiet sonic undercurrent rather than a traditional narrative accompaniment.

Selected pieces from “Summer Nights” are featured alongside “Knock on the Door” in the joint EP above.

]]> For the HBO miniseries “Our Boys” (created by Hagai Levi, Joseph Cedar, and Tawfik Abu-Wael), the score takes a deliberately restrained and austere approach. Because the series addresses real, unresolved events that remain deeply painful for the families and communities involved, the music avoids genre thriller tropes, overt suspense, or sensational drama. Built on subtle synthesizers and quiet electro-acoustic textures, the composition maintains a careful, respectful distance, underscoring the unfolding tragedy without turning real trauma into entertainment.

60 minutes of Continuous music in Israela shaar meoded’s new film, Woman

This experimental documentary was made without actors or even cameras. It is a puzzle made of hundreds of short pieces, taken from films made by women and about women. The nonstop music soundtrack is responsible for holding all these different pieces together and using them to create a unique story.
