In case anyone is interested, you can hear samples of all of the Ohmama CDs that I got at https://soundcloud.com/user-183156634. I'm really enjoying what I've heard so far -- from delicate piano and drones to over-the-top, bombastic horror buzzsaws and electronic textures.

Oh, wow. I didn't know Haslinger did that score. In spite of myself, I may have to try and watch that now.

Just watched it. It was a fine Friday night film. Resident Evil with monsters. They clearly wanted to make a series out of it, which is now doubtful.

A great film from a great era of US indies. I haven't seen it since back then, completely forgot about the score/that composer team!!

Geez. I haven't thought of that since it's release. What a fat season that was.

During a recent convo with some friends I said that the 90s was maybe the last great era for movies. I’m not saying that we haven’t had good movies since, but more that since the late 90s the cookie cutter format of movies has been getting more and more apparent. I’ve loved plenty of films in the last 20 years, and we’ve had some truly great bright spots especially in indie genre movies, but from the 50’s through the 90s there were so many different KINDS of movies to sample, things could get weird and wild and bizarre and unique and it there was literally something for everyone. This run of indies in the US in the early 90s is a great example. So many weird little movies that today wouldn’t even get green lit. It’s not even that the movies were necessarily better, but they were braver, if I can be a little bold here. I don’t want to dump too hard on today because I think there’s still great stuff and we’ve had incredible film and television since, but there really was an embarrassment of riches up to like 1998 or so, especially the oddities of the 80s/90s independent scene. Imagine a movie like say, Wild at heart coming out today.

Listening to "Gas Food Lodging" last night inspired me to pull something else old off the shelf and give it a spin. This soundtrack has music from David Ball (Soft Cell) and Genesis Breyer P-Orridge, The The, Einsturzende Neubauten, and more.

@redeye love checking out all these Japanese cd releases you keep posting. I'm always tempted by cinema Kan's releases, and wish they did more vinyl, but my wallet is very afraid of falling down the CD rabbit hole.

The Toru Takemitsu one is actually from Silva Screen. There is a 2-CD Japanese release of Ran that came out in 2002, but, unfortunately, I don't have that one.

That being said, I do have another batch arriving soon from Japan. Watch this space!

It Comes OST CD

The release is a great mix of songs (has contributions from King Krule and Matthew Herbert) and score -- was one of my favorite releases of 2018.

Here is a trailer for the film: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gD6eLKMU5P4
