C6039 Caldera Records is proud to present Andrew Dickson’s music for Mike Leigh’s films “Vera Drake” and “All or Nothing”. “All or Nothing” tells the story of a family whose members spend their days working at essential and yet low-paid jobs. Penny, played by Lesley Manville, is the main breadwinner as a cashier in a supermarket. Her partner Phil, played by Timothy Spall, drives a cab around town after years of unemployment due to his crippling depression. Living in a council flat with their two children Rachel (Alison Garland) and Rory (a young James Corden), Penny and Phil have resigned themselves to their life on the treadmill. With his music, written for violin, viola, double bass, flute, bass flute and two guitars, Dickson chose to enhance the somewhat desolate nature of some of the characters. Although “All or Nothing” was well-received critically, it is Mike Leigh’s most underappreciated film as it stands in the shadow of the director’s next work, “Vera Drake”. Vera Drake (Imelda Staunton) is a cleaner in post-war Britain, while her husband Stan (Phil Davis) works in a garage. Although they don’t have much money, they are optimistic. Having survived – and won – the Second World War, things were looking up for the United Kingdom. The worst seemed to be behind it. However, Vera keeps a secret from their family that eventually threatens to destroy their bond. At the Venice Film Festival, “Vera Drake” won the prize for Best Film before it was nominated for eleven BAFTAs, one Golden Globe and three Oscars. While it is hailed as one of Leigh’s major works, it is also the crowning opus of Andrew Dickson’s film career. By then, he and the director had already worked together for more than 20 years. For the first time in their films, Dickson and Leigh decided to use a choir. For the folk-like main theme of the film, Dickson used the germ of a sinister song about a fairground he had written previously and which had been performed by a 15-year old P.J. Harvey, a Mercury Prize-winning singer with whom Dickson performed in his local band in Bridport. Also included on this CD are selection from Andrew Dickson’s scores for “Someone Else’s America’ and “Oublie-Moi”. The 39th CD-release of Caldera Records – a world premiere – features a detailed booklet-text by Stephan Eicke and elegant artwork by Luis Miguel Rojas. The CD was mastered by Richard Moore and produced by Stephan Eicke and John Elborg.

Caldera Records is proud to present the score for the motion picture “Valley of Shadows” from 2017, directed by Jonas Matzow Gulbrandsen, featuring music by Zbigniew Preisner. The story of “Valley of Shadows” was inspired by a wide variety of sources, mostly going back to the director’s childhood: “I am interested in fables and allegories, in mythology and children’s tales, these stories that we often believe are regional but are actually extremely universal, sometime with a moral and often with joyful gravitas. One example is Draumkvedet (The Dream Poem), a Norwegian ballad from the Middle Ages. I read a lot when I was a child – traditional stories of course – but especially Swedish literature for children. As a child, I thought a lot and was hungry to learn. Reading Bruno Bettelheim was also something that I draw greatly from.” When it came to selecting the composer for the film, Gulbrandsen used his familiarity with the Polish film industry to get in touch with a living legend of the field. Born in Bielsko-Biała in 1955, Zbigniew Preisner has been composing music in his native Poland since the early 1980s. He is best-known for his work with Polish director Krzysztof Kieślowski on his epic “Three Colors” trilogy. The collaboration with Gulbrandsen was ground-breaking in more than one sense for the composer – it wasn’t only the fastest score he has ever realized, but it also introduced him to new concepts as he explains: “Jonas had the vision of having mostly electronic music, that it should be narration in film, and that it should be played from the beginning to the end. I am not fan of such usage of music in film but in this case, the director turned out to be right. The combination of symphonic and electronic music gave an amazing effect, though this was the first time I used so much electronics for a picture.” For the highlights of the score, the combination of electronic and symphonic elements is augmented by the voice of Lisa Gerrard who appears in both Valley of Shadows and Valley of Shadows – Wake Up. Connected by the middle passage entitled Odyssey, this 18-minute long, almost continuous segment underscores the moments as Aslak finds something he cannot comprehend. The 28th CD-release of Caldera Records features a detailed booklet-text by Gergely Hubai and elegant artwork by Luis Miguel Rojas. The CD was produced by Stephan Eicke and John Elborg.

Hallo zusammen, durch einen Bekannten der hauptsächlich LPs sammelt, bin ich dieses Wochenende auf die Filmmusik zu dem Film "Salero" von Mike Plunckett aufmerksam geworden. In dem Film geht es um die sogenannten Saleros welche lt. Filmbeschreibung in der größten Salzwüste der Welt, der Salar de Uyuni in Bolivien, mit dem Abbau von Salz ihren Lebensunterhalt bestreiten. Ich habe den Film zwar nicht gesehen, aber der Soundtrack besteht zum größten Teil aus wunderbaren, sphärischen Klangteppichen (mit kurzen Piano-Figuren / -akkorden und teilweise "flächigen" Streichereinsätzen) die in einigen Momenten an Brian Eno's "The lovely Bones", manchmal an Brian Reitzells "Hannibal" erinnern und einen unaufgeregt aber niemals langweilig auf eine kurze (Laufzeit: ca. 30 Minuten) Klangreise entführen. Das Werk gibt es auf der Seite des Label als Vinyl (ich finde hierbei vor Allem das Artwork grandios), MP3 und WAV Download (http://www.erasedtapes.com/store/index/eratp091). Hier kann man zudem in die Tracks reinhören.

Die Threadbezeichnung ist für die meisten Soundtrack Fans nichts besonderes. Jeder kennt das, dass Lieder die im Film vorkommen sind nicht auf dem Soundtrack zu finden sind. Ich hatte neulich aber eine totale Enttäuschung. Ich habe den OST von dem Film Zoning gekauft, Komponiert hat ihn Tangerine Dream. Er war relativ teuer und irgendwie kommt es mir so vor, als würde kein einziges Lied auf der CD im Film vor kommen, so etwas habe ich auch noch nicht erlebt. Danach erst habe ich diese Rezensionen gelesen und sie entsprechen leider der Wahrheit: Gibts noch eine Chance den echten Soundtrack irgendwo her zu bekommen?

Hallo liebes Forum, ich möchte euch meine Soundtrack Suite zu Taha Ismails Horror-Film "The Guest House" vorstellen. Ich hab vor allem orchestrale Klänge mit Synthesizer gemischt. Wenn ihr euch den Film ebenfalls anschauen wollt, findet ihr den Link in der Videobeschreibung Würde mich über Feedback freuen, LG Roland. https://youtu.be/NiT7wHZ_TOk
