The Secret movie soundtrack

by BT Fasmer

From time to time I get a mail from a reader asking if I know anything about the new age music soundtrack to the popular movie The Secret (2006) by Rhonda Byrne. The music is not released as a soundtrack CD, but an audiobook is available where the music from the movie can be heard in the background. There are, as far as I know, no track listing of the music used available (the IMDb page for this only contains Water Sonata with Boy Choir Composed by Stephen Edwards). It is apparent that, when the movie was made, the producers used many different sources – among them also music by Polish composer Jan A. P. Kaczmarek which also can be heard in the movie Evening.

But there is one song that is used in The Secret that I know about – which in fact is a remix of a trance song – called Hemstock and Jennings’ Mirage of Hope (chilled mix). It is a very powerful song with an Enigma-like atmosphere. The buildup is very well done. It is a proof that trance and new age are neighboring countries in the world of music.

You can hear where the music is used about 16 minutes into this free 20 minutes long preview of The Secret movie! The song is also being used on Discovery channel.

Sample the song below. It is no secret :)

The song is available on iTunes here.
