The music for Winter Voices is the real standout here. Haunting melodies with a bit of an exotic feel to them, a nice blend of synthetic and real instruments, moody music to match the mysterious past of the main character: it all works together brilliantly.
 
Winter Voices seems to keep the surprises coming, with some fresh ideas and interesting concepts.
