Let's Drive!

Excellent opening track for Nicolas Winding Refn's 'Drive' by DaftPunk people.
Turn it up and it will transport you back to those glorious 80's.

:papercutz - Dream Scores

Tijd voor een muzikale intermezzo. Speciaal voor headphonecommute.com creƫerde elektro-artiest Bruno Miguel, alias :papercutz, een mooie compilatie van geselecteerde filmmuziek. Herken je de films (zonder te googlen :))?

The connection that runs through this compilation making all of it’s pieces live in the same space is a sense of textural dreamlike/oniric harmony and melody either with light creeping in or embraced by shadows and close to the modern classical and ambient genre. I’m not entirely sure what was the real emotional intention the composers wanted to put out, even in it’s movie context (although one can assume one can never be truly sure), neither do I feel this music needs it’s visual context to stimulate in us various images. In fact I do believe here lies the secret that has made this scores live in listeners music libraries way beyond it’s initial soundtrack form, not only as a mechanism for emotional manipulation but as an independent, passionate entity even if at times the images of the film instantly return to ones mind with nearly each note being attacked.
