“Adrenaline” closes with Eastern-flavored electro kinetics. Newman’s knack for injecting orchestral organics with elements of electronic music is prevalent throughout the Skyfall score-especially in the outstanding “Komodo Dragon.” There, the classic Bond theme song resonates through a grand orchestra, while off in the distance the pitter-patter of mechanized rhythms slowly builds and overtakes the movement in the middle. In “Quartermaster,” the near-human voices of grainy woodwinds rub against the labyrinthine logic of looped electronic textures. This is balanced by the following “Voluntary Retirement,” where soft brass arrangements swell and exhale alongside the gradual layering of skittering rhythms. “Grand Bazaar, Istanbul” opens with an air of urgency as dramatic orchestral strikes bite and snap over a foreboding trill and hints of Eastern music tones. After graduating in arts from the BRIT School in 2006, Adele signed a record deal with XL Recordings.
