Spectropia Suite Remastered

by Elliott Sharp Soundtracks

supported by

bmurator I am loving the alternation between 2099 and 1931 style music. Part improvisation & part planned. I am not sure there will be an England in 2099 - not as we know it for sure as everything is falling apart here. I need to see this film! Thanks Elliott! Recommended! Favorite track: Chaos Ball.

about

Composed and produced by Elliott Sharp

Spectropia is both a full-length feature film and an interactive media event set in a possible England in 2099, and in New York City in 1931 after the stock market crash. Directed by Toni Dove, it tells a story of time travel and supernatural possession to explore the disorders brought on by consumer culture.

For the score, Sharp created two different noir soundworlds: for the future, one of distressed computers and tortured guitars: for New York 1931, one based on an imagined meeting of the musics of Duke Ellington and Edgar Varese. The song "This Time That Place" appears in various versions heard throughout the film: as a tango, as a feedbacked guitar solo, as a swing tune, a classical piano etude, and as a rock ballad sung by the great Debbie Harry of Blondie. To perform Spectropia Suite, E# assembled an ensemble of old friends and colleagues, The '31 Band, all of whom have extensive experience in many realms of music. All have worked with Sharp on many projects, from the various Western traditions of jazz and classical music to the farthest reaches of contemporary music, free jazz, and improvisation.

Junkie Movie Music

Swiss experimental Music Duo. This is very dark as well as being very experimental. It took me a while to appreciate it. But, once you have given it time (please do, it really pays off!), it all fits together very well & is very consistent. The music frightens me slightly, it creates this oppressive atmosphere full of doom & foreboding in a way that I had never experienced before! Thanks MPR! Recommended! bmurator
