专辑简介

The tunisian composer, multi-instrumentalist and sound designer Haythem Mahbouli based in Montreal (Canada) will release his second album "Last Man On Earth" on Schole Records on December 2, 2022.

"Last Man On Earth" rockets us into the future of a hostile Earth wherein humanity itself faces extinction. The album envisions man's final journey on our home planet and invites its listeners to immerse themselves into his last harrowing conquest. The end track scores the final days of the only surviving man on Earth. He is sick, he is breathless, but he captures a final message for the future, if there is one. His words are the last ever spoken.

His debut album, Catching Moments in Time, garnered critical acclaim from the contemporary classical music community who drew comparison to the works of celebrated composers Arvo Pärt, Johann Johannsson, and Brian Eno.

Mahbouli describes Last Man On Earth as a concept album which musically illustrates humanity's failure to preserve our planet and ultimately ourselves. The strings and choir in the album were recorded in Budapest with The Budapest Scoring Orchestra with Mahbouli present, however, working within the confines of the covid era, the brass section was recorded remotely with Mahbouli at his home studio in Montreal.
