The score will be available on all major digital sites including iTunes, Spotify, Amazon and Apple Music.

When discussing his work on the film Arntzen says, "Creating the original score for Initiation was an incredible experience. Collaborating with John Berardo over the years already gave us such a musical rapport that allowed me to dive into the more unique elements that would stand out in the Score. One was including the sound of a Drill (the killers weapon of choice) that would get increasingly louder as they approached. Also, I recorded my own voice doing various rhythmic breathing patterns and used a plug-in to tune my voice down one or two octaves to make it sound like a monster. These elements were on top of a bed of custom electronic synths that ranged from pads to pulsating screeching basses and percussion. There is one main motif/theme that is generally played on piano throughout the film. I have kept this theme since the film was in development years ago. Gratefully, when I finally played it back to picture, it still worked perfectly with how it resonated with the themes of the movie and characters better than I could have ever predicted!"

The Initiation synopsis reads: "During a university's pledge week, the carefree partying turns deadly serious when a star athlete is found impaled in his dorm. The murder ignites a spree of sinister social-media messages, sweeping the students and police into a race against time to uncover the truth behind the school's dark secrets…and the horrifying meaning of a recurring symbol: a single exclamation mark."
