British songwriter/musician Nick Wyke was commissioned to write two tracks for this documentary. Nick composes, sings and plays the musical backing for these tracks:
'TCM Blues' is sung in Sea-shanty mode.
'War on the Ocean' is kind of bluesy, with blues meaning bad news.
Another original work featured in the documentary is the bleak song 'No Birds in the Air, No Fish in the Sea'. Sung in Sea-shanty mode. www.nickwykemusic.com
Tenzin Choegyal
Tibetan singer Tenzin Choegyal is featured in the end-credits singing an original work titled 'Prayer for the Ocean'. This song was created as part of a multi-performer on-line event marking World Ocean Day 2020. Toward the end of the track are vocalizations from Humpback Whales. Only male Humpback Whales sing. The females listen. The males sing complex 'songs' that can continue for up to half an hour at a time.
