SOUNDTRACK - VINYL BLOB [VINYL]

Popis - BLOB [VINYL]:
'The Blob' is a 1988 American SF-Horror film written and directed by Chuck Russell and Frank Darabont. Special effects in the film were handled by legendary makeup artist Tony Gardner, known for his work on 'Army Of Darkness', 'Darkman', 'The Return Of The Living Dead' and who helped create the signature helmets for Daft Punk. Soundtrack duties for the film were handled by German composer Michael Hoenig, who actually doesn't need much of an introduction. Hoenig was part of the burgeoning progressive kraut and kosmische rock scene in Berlin where he was a member of the band Agitation Free in 1971. In 1975 Hoenig joined the electronic-pioneer band Tangerine Dream and then went on to collaborate with other big names like Klaus Schulze and Manuel Göttsching (of Ash Ra Tempel). In 1977 he released his first solo album, the highly acclaimed Berlin School classic 'Departure From The Northern Wasteland'. He also has composed a diverse and extensive catalog of material that includes the theme to 'Dark Skies', the soundtrack to the extremely popular 'Baldur's Gate' PC game and countless others. Horror scores composed by Hoenig include 'Class Of 1999' (1990) and 'The Gate' (1987) and he also performed on the soundtrack for 'Galaxy Of Terror' (1981). Michael's music for 'The Blob' is classic top shelf synth-driven electronica that fits the film like a glove. The voices, dark strings and feverish percussion create a rhythmic drive that embodies heroic desperation and a massive sense of relentless doom. Hoenig fashioned a creepy, compelling and atmospheric synth-based score, unleashing textured waves of sonic terror and suspense.
Available as a deluxe vinyl edition on classic black vinyl (with obi strip).
