Well, the tune switches between key-scales quite harshly to create drama and tension. It works well. It’s sort of awkward, but that’s the whole point of it. To make you feel a little odd.
It can be fun to experiment with out-of-key-scale notes. If you overdo it, you will perceive them as “false note” indeed. If you do it subtle, it can create tension.
The original is in this scale that took me a while to work out. It's in E Melodic Minor, which is similar mode to the regular E Minor but with the C D & G moved to C#, D# & D#I remember this theme faintly from the film - sounds like it translates great to a trance track - great effort overall! Theres just one piano note that sounds out of tune to me - but it might just be my ears hehe!
It's just different enough that it can sound a little bit dissonant as the melody progresses in a way that seems strange compared to the normal minor mode.
I just put this on Twitter/X to show what it sounds like in the traditional minor.

Thanks for the kind words everyone!
