[CD] Irréversible (Original Soundtrack From The Motion Picture)

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 recording industry to designate releases featuring contributions from multiple performers. It commonly appears on compilation albums or collaborative recordings where no single artist attribution applies. On digital platforms such as Last.fm, tracks may be listed under this designation when individual artist information is missing or incomplete in metadata, resulting in automatic grouping under the generic label. In some cases, singles credited to Various Artists are issued for charitable purposes, particularly when performers collaborate under a collective project name. Examples include Band Aid with the song "Do They Know It’s Christmas?" and USA for Africa with "We Are the World". Various Artists is also used as a performance alias by German musician Torsten Pröfrock, founder of the DIN label. In addition to this name, he has recorded under several other aliases, including Dynamo, Erosion, Resilent, and Traktor. He has collaborated with Robert Henke and has been a member of Monolake since 2004. The name was also used by a short-lived punk band formed in Bristol by brothers Jonjo and Robin Key, originally from Birmingham. Other members were involved simultaneously in Art Objects, which later evolved into The Blue Aeroplanes; the Key brothers also contributed as songwriters and participants in that project. After the group disbanded, the brothers formed Either / Or. The designation Various Artists is also commonly applied to musical theater soundtracks, reflecting recordings that feature multiple cast members or ensemble performances within a single track.
