[CD] Irréversible (Original Soundtrack From The Motion Picture)
LABEL:
CATNO:
ROULE CD 01
FORMAT:
Vinyl record
DESCRIPTION:
CD RELEASE of Daft Punk's Thomas Bangalter composed the score for the Gaspar Noé film Irreversible, a vividly realistic horror thriller containing brutal assault and rape scenes that reportedly caused hundreds to leave and dozens to faint after its viewing at the Cannes Film Festival. Although Bangalter's productions never previously showed the emotional range to make film work viable, he ably captures a spirit of approaching menace throughout the score. He appears to know much about film music, at least the narrow section from his own lifetime; from the first few notes of the title track, he shows a clear familiarity with the gist of horror classic soundtracks like John Carpenter's Halloween, Goblin's Suspiria, and Tangerine Dream's Sorcerer. "Stress" and "Paris By Night" could've been recorded 20 years earlier, while "Outrage" merges Daft Punk-style French disco with the one-note malevolence of horror soundtracks. For those wanting to hear more of Bangalter's glossy disco, the best candidates are four productions that first appeared up to eight years earlier on 12" releases for the Roulé label: "Spinal Scratch," "Outrun," "Extra Dry," and "Ventura/Into the Tunnel" (other than a few scattered mix albums, they make their CD debut here).

Last FM Information on Various Artists

Please note the information is done on a artist keyword match and data is provided by LastFM.
Warning! Deleting this artist may remove other artists and scrobbles from your library - please handle this with caution! Note: You can view albums tagged as 'Various Artists' in your library here. The term Various Artists is used in the record industry when numerous singers and musicians collaborate on a song or collection of songs. Most often on Last.fm, compilation album tracks appear under the name of Various Artists erroneously because the individual artist is not listed in the album's ID3 information. Compilation albums, for example. Sometimes, single releases may be credited to Various Artists when their profits are going to charity and, usually in high-profile cases, are sometimes known by a group name. Examples include Band Aid with their releases of Do They Know It's Christmas? and USA for Africa with We Are The World. Various Artists is also an actual performance name for Torsten Pröfrock, who runs the German DIN label. Torsten performs also as Dynamo, Erosion, Resilent, Traktor besides some others. He's a good friend of Robert Henke and since the Fall of 2004, he is a member of Monolake. Various Artists was also a short-lived Bristol punk band formed by brothers Jonjo and Robin Key (originally from Birmingham). Other members were also simultaneously in Art Objects who went on to become The Blue Aeroplanes, the latter the Key brothers also co-wrote some songs and were involved in. When Various Artists imploded, the Key brothers went on to form Either / Or. Various Artists also appear on tracks from musical theater soundtracks, due to the nature of having many cast members on one song, as well as an ensemble in some cases. Read more on Last.fm.
