OpeningThe song's filename in the internal data of Dread is "s_opening". is a track from Metroid Dread. It was composed by Soshi Abe and/or Sayako Doi.
==Description==
Opening plays in the in-engine introductory cutscene of Metroid Dread. It begins playing while Samus Aran pilots her Gunship through asteroids and enters the atmosphere of ZDR; when she sees the destroyed elevator in Artaria after awakening from her physical amnesia; and during the flashback to her arrival in Artaria and first battle against Raven Beak.
The track opens with static building into high strings and metallophone to evoke the ambience of space. A reverse cymbal crescendos into silence. When the music resumes, it incorporates some of the atmospheric instruments of Cave 001 with the addition of mysterious-sounding rising arpeggios. After another pause, Opening features a rendition of Boss Commander for the battle between Samus and Raven Beak.
Opening can be heard without the silent pauses here:
