Escharum is the fifth track in Halo Infinite Original Soundtrack.
Overview
The track features double bass, low strings, and tribal percussion playing a heavy and solemn melody. It serves as the leitmotif for Escharum, and is incorporated into other tracks, including The Banished and the pre-release track Set a Fire in Your Heart.
An excerpt from Escharum's sheet music, depicting its main theme.
Appearances
The track can be heard in the campaign menu for Halo Infinite.
Production notes
Escharum's theme used double bass to emphasize on the character's weight and heft as a Banished War Chief. A double bass was chosen as the instrument in the early editions of the theme, and Coker stated it has effectively conveyed the menacing feel to others at 343 Industries.[1]
