About

The Flight is a British music duo specializing in creating immersive soundtracks for video games and films. Consisting of Joe Henson and Alexis Smith, the pair began their collaboration in 2005, initially working on an album for Joe's band, Seventhsun. Their shared vision and complementary musical tastes led to the formation of The Flight. Known for their work on high-profile video games such as Alien: Isolation, Horizon: Zero Dawn, and Assassin's Creed Odyssey, The Flight's compositions often blend elements of electronic, orchestral, and ambient music.

How to Sound Like The Flight

To emulate The Flight's distinctive sound, focus on creating a cinematic and atmospheric sonic landscape. Their compositions often feature a mix of orchestral elements and electronic textures, which can be achieved using a combination of synthesizers and virtual orchestral instruments. The duo's music is marked by its rich, layered soundscapes that balance melodic synth lines with dynamic orchestral swells. Incorporating ambient effects, such as reverb and delay, can add depth and space to the music, while subtle rhythmic elements provide movement without dominating the composition. The Flight’s sound is both expansive and emotionally engaging, requiring careful attention to detail in both arrangement and production to capture its full impact.
