PR: VARÈSE SARABANDE RECORDS IS HONORED TO PRESENT THE DEVIL WE KNOW

Varèse Sarabande Records announces the digital release of THE DEVIL WE KNOW – Original Documentary Score on December 7th. The score features music from Composer Brian Tyler (CRAZY RICH ASIANS, YELLOWSTONE). “Composing the score for THE DEVIL WE KNOW was a truly personal experience for me,” composer Brian Tyler shares. THE DEVIL WE KNOW tells about one of the largest lawsuits in environmental history, staring a gym teacher and cattle farmer who led the citizens of a small West Virginia city to battle the multinational chemical megaliths, Dupont and 3M. In tribute to this heroic struggle, Composer Brian Tyler creates a rich audio panorama for the tale of one of the biggest environmental scandals of the modern day. “I wrote the score thematically and used multiple pianos, electronics, guitars, cellos, rhodes electric piano, and my own voice to make the music.” Tyler said. As he continued he was honest about his desires for the music, “ My hope that it will take the listener on an auditory journey that echoes the true story of this film and the remarkable people that stand up to powerful foes with truth and bravery.” Directors Stephanie Soechtig (UNDER THE GUN, FED UP) and Jeremy Seifert (GMO OMG, DIVE!) present an unusually engrossing human-interest documentary amongst the complexities of industrial pollution, corporate secrecy, and governmental lobbying. Brian adds, “While the music reflects the mysterious layers of the worldwide ecological scandal as the clues are uncovered, I wanted to concentrate on highlighting the film's emotional underpinnings. There is so much humanity that imbues the documentary - personal stories, family, love”. THE DEVIL WE KNOW is currently available on DVD and VOD services, like iTunes, Google Play and Amazon. Screenings by universities, governmental agencies and various other public interest groups continue to bring this critical document to theaters nationwide.

PR: MOWGLI: LEGEND OF THE JUNGLE ORIGINAL MOTION PICTURE SOUNDTRACK NOW AVAILABLE

The Mowgli: Legend of the Jungle soundtrack is now available for streaming and for purchase digitally. A CD configuration will be available February 15, 2019.  The track list is as follows:

FEATURES NEW MUSIC FROM AWARD WINNING COMPOSER

NITIN SAWHNEY

(November 30, 2018 - BURBANK, CA) – WaterTower Music is pleased to announce today’s release of the original motion picture soundtrack for Mowgli: Legend of the Jungle, the reinvention of Rudyard Kipling’s beloved masterpiece by acclaimed actor and director Andy Serkis, in which a boy torn between two worlds accepts his destiny and becomes a legend. Mowgli: Legend of the Jungle will see a limited theatrical release from Nov. 29 in Los Angeles, New York, San Francisco and London, and will then be available globally on December 7, only on Netflix, and will have an expanded theatrical release in additional theaters in the U.S. and UK.

The film was scored by British composer, producer, album artist, club DJ, songwriter, broadcaster, multi-instrumentalist, orchestrator and cultural tastemaker Nitin Sawhney, who is recognized as one of the most distinctive and versatile musical voices around today, achieving an international reputation across every possible creative medium. Sawhney also wrote the original song “Changes” which appears in the film and on the soundtrack and is performed by singer / songwriter Kara Marni.

Nitin Sawhney discusses working on the film: “The challenge of creating a fresh musical vocabulary and theme that would entice us into Mowgli’s universe was irresistible. That Andy Serkis was directing made it an unforgettable experience in the waiting. Andy is nothing short of a genius. The stunning film, of stellar performances and endlessly epic scenes, scored itself.”

The director further elaborated on the collaboration. “As I was trying to search for (Mowgli’s) tone, its heart, its pulse and rhythm, I knew one thing in my heart. That I wanted my friend Nitin Sawhney, one of our generation’s greatest polymaths, an extraordinary voice in world music, to create the score for what was to hopefully become a visceral and immersive adaptation of Kipling’s work,” explains Serkis. “I knew that he would completely understand and empathize with Mowgli’s journey as an outsider who is trying to work out his place in two changing worlds. Being of Indian descent, yet having grown up in Britain, Nitin was perfectly in tune with the movie’s themes. We began to talk excitedly about creating an aural landscape that would bring jungle sounds and music together, weaving themes that spoke of a taught yearning soul, combined with a mythical journey towards destiny. And then, Nitin sent me Mowgli’s theme... it was one of the most beautifully haunting, uplifting and moving pieces of music I had ever heard, and it marked a huge turning point, an energy that brought the film to life. Nitin and his team of magicians had created its musical soul.”

Nitin Sawhney, amongst a multitude of international awards, holds six honorary doctorates and two fellowships from British universities and was awarded the Ivor Novello Lifetime Achievement Award in 2017. It was presented to him by his friend and collaborator Andy Serkis, for whom Sawhney also scored the true story romantic drama “Breathe” that same year.

ETHAN GOLD RELEASES SOUNDTRACK TO “THE SONG OF SWAY LAKE”

ART ROCK PERFORMER AND COMPOSER ETHAN GOLD

RELEASES SOUNDTRACK AND VINYL 7” TO AWARD-WINNING FILM

“THE SONG OF SWAY LAKE”

(November 19, 2018) LOS ANGELES – Performer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist Ethan Gold shares his latest collaboration with independent film director and twin brother Ari Gold, resulting in the soundtrack behind the jazz-inspired drama, “The Song of Sway Lake.” Title tracks from the album feature vocals from American singer John Grant and English indie folk trio The Staves. The original soundtrack is released digitally by Lakeshore Records and is currently available for purchase on major digital platforms. The album is available on CD through Gold’s label Electrik Gold, who will also release a limited 7” vinyl on Record Store Day, Friday, Nov. 23, 2018.

The soundtrack album opens with two versions of the title song: the Lost Record Version sung by Grant and arranged as a late ‘30s intimate crooner track on vinyl, and the Big Band Version sung by The Staves as a late ‘40s pop hit. This is followed by the film’s romantic and ethereal instrumental score, played in sequence. After an intermission of Haitian jazz, listeners are treated to Sketches of Sway — a collection Gold’s otherworldly finales, alternate arrangements, and sound experiments inspired by the themes of the film. The final two tracks return the listener to the title song, with two demo versions sung by Ethan Gold.

A story of the fading of jazz-age American royalty, “The Song of Sway Lake” tells of the last summer of the Sway family on the lake that bears their name. The musically-inspired drama sees Ollie Sway (Rory Culkin) travel with his Russian drifter friend, Nikolai (Robert Sheehan), to the fictional Sway Lake. The film also features Mary Beth Peil as the matriarch, narration by Brian Dennehy, and Elizabeth Peña in her last role prior to her death.

“The two young men in the film, and the grandmother, have all replaced the grief they don’t know how to feel with a burdensome nostalgia,” Ethan describes. “The instrumental score itself is like a higher perspective for the lost characters. It’s the silent water of the lake, the ghosts of the father and grandfather, and the dark energy of the forest.”

“Scent and music are the strongest triggers of human memory,” explains director Ari Gold. “And because you can’t smell a movie, I counted on the gifts of my twin brother Ethan, whose abilities I've called upon in prior films, to weave his brilliant music into this setting, and to catapult the audience through frozen time.”

Ethan Gold first stepped into public consciousness when he produced and arranged Elvis Perkins’ blog-hyped “Ash Wednesday.” In between moonlighting as bass player in his brother’s celebrity-driven folk party band the Honey Brothers and also in San Francisco literary rock project the Size Queens, Ethan scored his twin’s debut film “Adventures of Power.”

Since then he released his debut art rock album “Songs from A Toxic Apartment”. While completing the score and songs for “The Song of Sway Lake”, Ethan released a pair of idiosyncratic albums in 2018 — “Live Undead Bedroom Closet Covers,” and the naive-electronic “Expanses (Teenage Synthstrumentals),” through Electrik Gold.

VARÈSE SARABANDE RECORDS ANNOUNCES COLLECTIBLE DISC RELEASES

VARÈSE SARABANDE RECORDS ANNOUNCES THREE NEW COLLECTIBLE PICTURE DISC RELEASES AVAILABLE ON NOVEMBER 16TH!

ELF – John Debney

SHREK – Harry Gregson-Williams & John Powell

ICE AGE – David Newman

ELF AND SHREK WILL BE EXCLUSIVELY AT BARNES & NOBLE!

(November 15, 2018– Los Angeles, CA) –Varèse Sarabande Records is proud to announce three picture disc album releases of classic family blockbusters on November 16.  ICE AGE (David Newman) is the first ever vinyl release for any Ice Age film and features a picture disc of every fan’s favorite animal characters from the movie. SHREK (Harry Gregson-Williams  & John Powell) will also be available for the first time ever on vinyl and Its picture disc will show beloved characters Shrek and Donkey. ELF (John Debney) is the first time that any ELF soundtrack record will be available as a vinyl picture disc.

John Debney's score for John Favreau's Christmas comedy ELF is a hyper-stylized and witty celebration of all things Christmas, just like ELF itself. After inadvertently wreaking havoc on the elf community due to his ungainly size, a man named Buddy (Will Ferrell) raised as an elf at the North Pole is sent to the U.S. in search of his true identity. The largely orchestral score would fit seamlessly into all. The score is a funny and apt companion piece for any fans of the ELF film and this picture disc release makes the album an essential collector’s piece not only for fans of the score, but for fans of the franchise who want to own a picture disc for an iconic film.

SHREK is the second most successful animated franchise of all time, earning over 3.5 billion dollars at the box office. It has an incredibly adventurous animation score that is a rare collaboration between two very accomplished film composers: John Powell and Harry Gregson-Williams. In the film, after his swamp is filled with magical creatures, SHREK agrees to rescue Princess Fiona for a villainous lord in order to get his land back. SHREK has also become a successful musical production, originally debuting on Broadway in 2008.  

David Newman’s orchestral score for ICE AGE served as a perfect foil for the unlikely group of a mammoth, sloth, and tiger traversing the Earth because of the planet's shifting climate; and a squirrel’s desire for the ever elusive acorn. ICE AGE is the third most successful animated franchise of all time. It is the first ever vinyl release for any ICE AGE film and features every fan’s favorite animal characters. The next installment of the ICE AGE series is confirmed to be released in 2019 as ICE AGE 6: THE KIDNAPPING.

Varèse Sarabande Records is proud to announce picture disc album releases of classic family blockbusters on November 16 of ICE AGE, SHREK & ELF. SHREK & ELF will be exclusively at Barnes & Noble.

PR: LAKESHORE RECORDS PROUD TO ANNOUNCE THE RELEASE OF DESTROYER

LET THE SOUND TAKE YOU DOWN THE PATH LAKESHORE RECORDS PROUD TO ANNOUNCE THE RELEASE OF DESTROYER – ORIGINAL MOTION PICTURE SOUNDTRACK

Featuring Original Music by Composer Theodore Shapiro

(November 16, 2018 – Los Angeles, CA) – Lakeshore Records is pleased to announce the release of DESTROYER – Original Motion Picture Soundtrack on pre-order November 9, 2018 and then on full Digital Download and CD release on November 16, 2018. The album features original music by Composer Theodore Shapiro (A SIMPLE FAVOR, COLLATERAL BEAUTY). This is the latest collaboration between Shapiro and visionary director Karyn Kusama, in a partnership that began with GIRLFIGHT.

When asked about the music, composer Theodore Shapiro focuses on the person at the heart of the film, “The music for DESTROYER comes first and foremost out of the character of Detective Erin Bell, played by the wonderful actor Nicole Kidman.  Guided by Phil Hay and Matt Manfredi’s superb script, and through extensive conversations with Karyn Kusama, we as a team began to wrestle with how to give a musical language to this profoundly complicated female protagonist.”

In DESTROYER, A police detective reconnects with people from an undercover assignment in her distant past in order to make peace. The moral and existential odyssey of LAPD detective Erin Bell, whose undercover assignment to infiltrate California desert gang ended in tragedy. When the leader of that gang re-emerges many years later, she must work her way back through the remaining members and into her own history with them to finally reckon with the demons that destroyed her past. Directed by visionary Karyn Kusama and starring Nicole Kidman in the performance of her lifetime.

Shaprio continued about the wonderful and nuanced work and his pride in working on such a layered and well-realized project. “We collaborated with four brilliant musicians to create a sound that is obsessive, animal, fierce, but also tinged with a layer of pain and regret.  I wrote an hour of music before Karyn started shooting the film.  So unlike the more typical sequence, in which the film is shot first and then the composer starts writing, Karyn had a library of original music to help inspire her during production, and then incorporate into the film as she edited.  The result, through her brilliant direction and Nicole Kidman’s stunning performance as Erin Bell, is something of which I’m deeply proud.

ANNAPURNA PICTURES presents DESTROYER on December 25, 2018. Lakeshore Records is pleased to announce the release of DESTROYER – Original Motion Picture Soundtrack on pre-order November 9, 2018 and then on full Digital Download and CD release on November 16, 2018

About Composer Theodore Shapiro

From the upbeat, jazzy sounds of THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA to the jungle-adventure send-up of TROPIC THUNDER and the sentiment of the hit MARLEY & ME, composer Theodore Shapiro has consistently delivered memorable music for some of the funniest movies of the past five years. But in a corollary to the old acting bromide “dying is easy, comedy is hard,” Shapiro steps gingerly when adding music to the antics of a Jack Black, Ben Stiller or Owen Wilson: “If you’re ever making a gesture that gives the audience permission to laugh, you have to be very judicious with it,” he explains, “because the worst possible thing you can do is to push the comedy too hard.”

His careful touch has made him a sought-after collaborator for some of Hollywood’s leading comedy directors: David Frankel (Prada, Marley), Stiller (Tropic Thunder), John Hamburg (I Love You, Man, Along Came Polly), Mike Judge (Idiocracy) and, most recently, Harold Ramis (Year One). Shapiro, 37, is a rarity in modern film music: a classically trained composer (bachelor’s degree from Brown, master’s from Juilliard) who, despite commissions for classical works (including a well-received piano concerto in 1999), decided he’d rather be working in film. “A lot of the seminal cultural experiences of my life were in the movie theater,” he says during a writing break at his comfortable Glendale, Calif., studio. “As a 9-year-old boy, ‘Raiders of the Lost Ark’ had a major impact on my life. I’ve always been very connected to the medium.”

Shapiro followed the usual route for a fledgling film composer: low-budget, independent films, often made by friends, one of which, Karyn Kusama’s Girlfight, won major awards at the Sundance Film Festival and led to a two-film collaboration with celebrated playwright (and sometime film director) David Mamet, on STATE AND MAIN and HEIST. Director Todd Phillips liked Shapiro’s thriller score for Heist and hired him for his 2003 comedy OLD SCHOOL. Its success, in turn, led to Shapiro’s current status as Hollywood’s go-to composer for edgy comedic fare: STARSKY AND HUTCH, DODGEBALL, FUN WITH DICK AND JANE and others.

PR: If Beale Street Could Talk Score (Nicholas Britell)

LAKESHORE RECORDS TO RELEASE IF BEALE STREET COULD TALK—ORIGINAL MOTION PICTURE SCORE COMPOSED BY ACADEMY AWARD-NOMINATED COMPOSER NICHOLAS BRITELL

DIGITALLY NOVEMBER 9

An Annapurna Pictures Film Written for the Screen & Directed by Academy Award-Winner

Barry Jenkins in Select Theaters November 30

Los Angeles October 31, 2018:  Lakeshore Records will release If Beale Street Could Talk—Original Motion Picture Score composed by Nicholas Britell (Moonlight) worldwide digitally on November 9 with a vinyl version forthcoming.  It’s Britell’s second collaboration with writer/director Barry Jenkins and the follow up to his Academy Award-nominated score for Moonlight—the Best Picture Oscar winner directed by Jenkins in 2016 (who took home the Best Writing Adapted Screenplay Oscar).  Britell brings his limitless creativity to the themes of love and injustice anchoring the film and creates a score sublimely straddling the worlds of classical and jazz.  The sound ranges from lush to uncompromisingly experimental thoroughly inhabiting the film to striking and unforgettable effect. Annapurna Pictures will release the film which stars KiKi Layne, Stephan James, Teyonah Parris, Colman Domingo and Regina King, in select theaters November 30.    

Set in early-1970s Harlem, If Beale Street Could Talk is a timeless and moving love story of both a couple’s unbreakable bond and the African-American family’s empowering embrace, as told through the eyes of 19-year-old Tish Rivers (screen newcomer KiKi Layne). A daughter and wife-to-be, Tish vividly recalls the passion, respect and trust that have connected she and her artist fiancé Alonzo Hunt, who goes by the nickname Fonny (Stephan James). Friends since childhood, the devoted couple dream of a future together but their plans are derailed when Fonny is arrested for a crime he did not commit.

Says Britell: "It was a truly special experience to collaborate with Barry on If Beale Street Could Talk. Together, we explored a sonic landscape filled with brass and strings, while also venturing into some quite extreme experimentation. I'm always fascinated by the mysteries of scoring a film. As Barry and I worked together, we discovered certain sounds which we felt deeply resonated with the story. I'm so honored to have been a part of this film and to have had the opportunity to work with Barry again."

Says Jenkins: “Working with Nick on the score for If Beale Street Could Talk was a wonderful continuation of the process we began on Moonlight. In channeling the voices of James Baldwin, our main character Tish and the rich array of souls she encounters and the moods and themes she charts, we arrived at a sound that I feel truly honors the wonderful text that Baldwin gifted us while creating a distinct soundscape for this literary adaptation.”

ABOUT HANS ZIMMER

German-born composer Hans Zimmer is recognized as one of Hollywood’s most innovative musical talents‚ having first enjoyed success in the world of pop music as a member of The Buggles. The group’s single Video Killed the Radio Star became a worldwide hit and helped usher in a new era of global entertainment as the first music video to be aired on MTV. Zimmer entered the world of film music in London during a long collaboration with famed composer and mentor Stanley Myers‚ which included the film MY BEAUTIFUL LAUNDRETTE. He soon began work on several successful solo projects‚ including the critically acclaimed A World Apart‚ and during these years Zimmer pioneered the use of combining old and new musical technologies. Today‚ this work has earned him the reputation of being the father of integrating the electronic musical world with traditional orchestral arrangements. A turning point in Zimmer’s career came in 1988 when he was asked to score RAIN MAN for director Barry Levinson. The film went on to win the Oscar for Best Picture of the Year and earned Zimmer his first Academy Award Nomination for Best Original Score. The next year‚ Zimmer composed the score for another Best Picture Oscar recipient‚ DRIVING MISS DAISY‚ starring Jessica Tandy and Morgan Freeman. Having already scored two Best Picture winners‚ in the early ’90s Zimmer cemented his position as a pre-eminent talent with the award-winning score for THE LION KING. The soundtrack has sold over 15 million copies to date and earned him an Academy Award for Best Original Score‚ a Golden Globe‚ an American Music Award‚ a Tony and two Grammy Awards. In total‚ Zimmer’s work has been nominated for 7 Golden Globes‚ 7 Grammys and seven Oscars for RAINMAN‚ GLADIATOR‚ THE LION KING‚ AS GOOD AS IT GETS‚ THE PREACHERS WIFE‚ THE THIN RED LINE‚ THE PRINCE OF EGYPT and THE LAST SAMURAI. With his career in full swing‚ Zimmer was anxious to replicate the mentoring experience he had benefited from under Stanley Myers’ guidance. With state-of-the-art technology and a supportive creative environment‚ Zimmer was able to offer film-scoring opportunities to young composers at his Santa Monica-based musical ’think tank.’ This approach helped launch the careers of such notable composers as Mark Mancina‚ John Powell‚ Harry Gregson-Williams‚ Nick Glennie-Smith and Klaus Badelt. In 2000 Zimmer scored the music for GLADIATOR‚ for which he received an Oscar nomination‚ in addition to Golden Globe and Broadcast Film Critics Awards for his epic score.

PR: What Still Remains Soundtrack

LAKESHORE RECORDS TO ANNOUNCE THE RELEASE OF WHAT STILL REMAINS – ORIGINAL MOTION PICTURE SOUNDTRACK

Featuring Original Music by Jonathan Beard

(October 9, 2018 – Los Angeles, CA) – Lakeshore Records is pleased to announce the release of WHAT STILL REMAINS – Original Motion Picture Soundtrack on Digital Download on October 5, 2018. The Album features original music by astounding Composer Jonathan Beard (STAR WARS: THE OLD REPUBLIC – KNIGHTS OF THE FALLEN EMPIRE).

A generation after the “Change”, a zombie virus that ravaged modern civilization, Anna (Lulu Antariksa), the last of her family, must choose the isolation of the only four walls she’s ever known or the unpredictability of a desolate wasteland and monsters.

Jonathan describes scoring WHAT STILL REMAINS, “In exploring the uncertain world that our characters face, the film unfolds as a complex and engaging psychological thriller, and the score needed to musically reflect that reality. We’re really looking at a Hitchcockian psychological tapestry, dialog scenes where what’s being discussed on the surface is 100% cover for what’s being insinuated below the surface, and the score gets to dance between those two levels.”

Anna encounters Peter (Colin O’Donoghue), who promises community of companionship and protection, and Berserkers, humans dressed as “the changed” searching for victims of their own. While Peter’s group may not prove exactly what Anna wants, they may be what she needs but Anna knows that nothing in WHAT STILL REMAINS is free.

“Peter presents a delicious musical opportunity: an intriguing and initially sympathetic character who is ultimately not what he seems. The theme for Peter is built around an unsettling four-note motif that obfuscates major and minor modes becoming more claustrophobic and intense as it progresses,” explains Jonathan, “Working with director Josh Mendoza, as well as stars Colin O’Donoghue and Lulu Antariksa, has been a dream. There’s nothing more enjoyable musically than getting to augment nuanced and compelling acting performances from a great cast, with a director who loves what music can bring to a film”.

Jonathan Beard creates music for media and the concert stage.  As a composer, his recent projects include scoring the feature films like FRANK VS. GOD and guest-composing for ABC's ONCE UPON A TIME.  For the stage, Jonathan co-composed the oratorio The Passion Of Anne Frank for the Los Angeles Master Chorale as part of their Voices Within residency, and his original theatre-score for Driving Miss Daisy received an NAACP Theatre Award nomination.  He also recently completed the I-Park Foundation Artist Residency for his in-progress electroacoustic opera Cesare, Child Of Night. One of the most sought-after orchestrators in Los Angeles, Jonathan values collaboration with other composers very deeply.  He has worked closely with composers Junkie XL (DEADPOOL, THE DARK TOWER) and Bear McCreary (10 Cloverfield Lane, Marvel’s Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D.) for many years on numerous film, television, and video game projects, and more recently with composers including Abel Korzeniowski (PENNY DREADFUL), Heitor Pereira (Despicable Me 3) and Gordy Haab (Star Wars: Battlefront), among others. In 2017, he also completed orchestration on Adam Taylor’s evocative score for Hulu’s smash hit series THE HANDMAID’S TALE, which went on to win the Emmy for Outstanding Drama Series.

THE ULTIMATE HUNTER IS READY TO TRACK YOU DOWN.... LAKESHORE RECORDS PROUD TO ANNOUNCE THE RELEASE OF THE PREDATOR – ORIGINAL MOTION PICTURE SOUNDTRACK

Featuring Original Music by Henry Jackman

(September 28, 2018 – Los Angeles, CA) – Lakeshore Records pleased to announce the release of THE PREDATOR – Original Motion Picture Soundtrack available now on Digital Download and CD. The Album features original music by blockbuster Composer Henry Jackman (KONG: SKULL ISLAND, THE KINGSMAN).

From the black depths of outer space to the backwoods of southern Georgia, the Predators come to hunt in Shane Black’s explosive reinvention of the beloved series. Now, the universe’s most lethal hunters are stronger, smarter and deadlier than ever before. And only a ragtag crew of ex-soldiers and an evolutionary biology professor can prevent all humanity from becoming the Predators’ trophies.

“It was an honor to work on a film that had such rich thematic heritage,” said wonderful dynamic Composer Henry Jackman. “Alan Silvestri’s fantastic score from the original has always been a favorite of mine and when asked if I would like to be involved in this project I immediately said yes. Shane was an absolute pleasure to work with from beginning to end - I’m sure audiences will appreciate this addition to the Predator saga.”

Henry Jackman has established himself as one of today’s top composers by fusing his classical training and his experience as a successful record producer and creator of electronic music. His musical versatility ratcheted up the tension in Paul Greengrass’ CAPTAIN PHILLIPS (earning him a BAFTA nomination), super-powered such comic book hits as X-MEN: FIRST CLASS and CAPTAIN AMERICA: WINTER SOLDIER; kicked ass in KINGSMAN: THE GOLDEN CIRCLE and KICK-ASS; breathed life into legendary animated characters like WINNIE THE POOH, PUSS IN BOOTS, WRECK-IT RALPH, and Oscar-winner BIG HERO 6. His most recent work can be heard in the standalone Jumanji sequel, JUMANJI: WELCOME TO THE JUNGLE, Marvel’s blockbuster hit CAPTAIN AMERICA: CIVIL WAR, Naughty Dog’s latest installment in the Uncharted video game franchise, UNCHARTED: THE LOST LEGACY, and the adventure sequel from Warner Bros.’ KONG: SKULL ISLAND starring Brie Larson and Tom Hiddleston.

His other diverse credits include the animated features MONSTERS VS. ALIENS and TURBO, period drama HENRI 4, family adventure GULLIVER’S TRAVELS(starring Jack Black), crime thriller MAN ON A LEDGE, horror fantasy ABRAHAM LINCOLN: VAMPIRE HUNTER, and the Seth Rogen / James Franco comedies THIS IS THE END and (the firestorm sensation) THE INTERVIEW. Up next for Jackman is Walt Disney Animation’s adventure sequel RALPH BREAKS THE INTERNET, the biographical drama TRIAL BY FIRE DIRECTED by Edward Zwick,

Jackman grew up in the southeast of England, where he began composing his first symphony at the age of six. He studied classical music at Oxford and sang in the St. Paul’s Cathedral Choir—but simultaneously got involved in the underground rave scene and began producing popular electronica music and dance remixes, eventually working with artists such as Seal and The Art of Noise. In 2006 he caught the attention of film composers Hans Zimmer and John Powell, and began writing additional music for Zimmer and Powell on KUNG FU PANDA, and then for Zimmer on THE DARK KNIGHT, THE DA VINCI CODE, and THE PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN films, which rapidly led to scoring blockbuster films on his own.

20thCENTURY FOX presents THE PREDATOR in theaters on September 14, 2018 nationwide. Lakeshore Records pleased to announce the release of THE PREDATOR – Original Motion Picture Soundtrack on September 28, 2018 on Digital Download and CD.

PR: 306 Hollywood Soundtrack

LAKESHORE RECORDS THRILLED TO ANNOUNCE THE RELEASE OF 306 HOLLYWOOD – A MAGICAL REALIST DOCUMENTARY SOUNDTRACK

Soundtrack released on October 5, 2018.

Featuring Original Music by Troy Herion

(October 5, 2018 – Los Angeles, CA) This touching, visually stunning, and genre breaking film, directed by sister-brother artists and filmmakers Elan and Jonathan Bogarín, was the opening night film of the 2018 Sundance Film Festival’s NEXT section (and the first documentary ever to be selected for the program).

When siblings Elan and Jonathan Bogarin undertake an archeological excavation of their late grandmother’s house, they embark on a magical-realist journey in search of what life remains in the objects we leave behind. 306 HOLLYWOOD transforms the dusty fragments of an unassuming life into an epic metaphor for the nature of memory, time, and history.

“We wanted to create a heightened world, where the ordinary becomes extraordinary. So we went all in with the film score – treating the music as a full character in a way that shapes the film far more than a typical documentary. Troy’s magical realist film score brings out the wonder and mystery behind our everyday reality.” – Elan Bogarin, director.

The Bogarins embark from Grandma’s cluttered New Jersey home to ancient Rome, traversing worlds from fashion to physics in the excavation of the extraordinary universe contained in a single house. With help of scientists, curators, and archivists, tchotchkes become artifacts in the profound exploration of the question: When a loved one dies, what should we do with everything they left behind?

”The film explores the objects left behind after a loved one dies. Each object is a portal into the emotions of the past – and there is a sense of time travel. The music also travels through the decades -the chic optimism of the 60s, the hip drum beats of the 70s, and then there are overarching themes of surrealism and bittersweet reminiscence.” – Troy Herion, composer

“306 Hollywood was a unique collaboration where I not only scored the film, I am also one of the editors. Having the freedom to cut a scene while writing music allows for deep interconnections between the music, images, and rhythm of the film. I take the view that the film as a whole is musical.” – Troy Herion, composer

Troy Herion is a composer and filmmaker whose versatile compositions range from classical and avant-garde orchestral music to intricate and melodic electronic scores. With classical training from the Princeton University PhD program, Herion’s commissions include a Carnegie Hall debut with the American Composers Orchestra, an orchestral ballet with The Pennsylvania Ballet, and a large-scale experimental theater piece with Obie-winning Pig Iron Theatre and the Grammy-winning Crossing Choir.

Recent film scores by Troy Herion include award-winning films 306 HOLLYWOOD, THE DOG, MOUNTAIN FIRE PERSONNEL, and YOU CAN GO which have screened at Sundance, Toronto, SXSW, MoMA, and Tribeca Film Festival. Herion composes and directs visual-music films including Baroque Suite and New York: A City Symphony which have been called “marvelous” by New Yorker music critic Alex Ross and were featured on MTV, the New York Times, and NPR. His scores grace digital content for Google, The Whitney Museum, MoMA, The Getty, and many others.

Elan Bogarin & Jonathan Bogarin present 306 HOLLYWOOD in theaters now. 306 HOLLYWOOD opened in New York on Friday, September 28 at the Quad Cinema and continues with a national rollout with a San Francisco premiere  Friday, October 5, 2018. Find your nearest screening and panel at 306 HOLLYWOOD Events.

ABOUT HAROLD FALTERMEYER

Born October 1952 in Munich, Germany, Harold Faltermeyer was raised in a countryside neighborhood just outside the city. The family played music as a part of daily life. His Grandfather was a gifted violinist, Grandmother had a beautiful classical Alto soprano singing voice and Harold’s Father Hugo played excellent piano. While Harold studied music at Munich’s prestigious, Hochschule fuer Musik full time, he also worked at the Deutsche Grammophon recording studio as a volunteer technician. He learned sound engineering, and was also honing his skills in electronic music, programming synthesizers, composing, arranging and conducting. This dedication paid off with his first big break – working as right-hand-man to Giorgio Moroder, producer of Donna Summer and pioneer of the Disco Movement.

Harold worked for nearly two years in Giorgio’s famous Musicland Studio in Munich before he got the chance to write songs for Donna Summer’s new album Bad Girls in 1979. Hot Stuff is still one of the all time Disco classics. Then, while working with Moroder in Los Angeles on American Gigolo, Harold met movie producers Jerry Bruckheimer and the late Don Simpson. In 1983 they offered Harold the opportunity to compose the music for their new feature Thief of Hearts. Soon after that, he was hired for Beverly Hills Cop, Top Gun and Beverly Hills Cop II. From 1985-1992 he wrote the music to several more successful movies – Fletch, Running Man, Fletch Lives, Fatal Beauty, Tango &Cash and Kuffs. Collectively these movies garnered 5 Grammy nominations, 2 Golden Globe Nominations and one Academy Award nomination.

Harold won two Grammys and several awards abroad. The theme from Beverly Hills Cop – AXEL F. was covered by various groups around the world. In 2005, two decades after its origin, the Crazy Frog version of AXEL F. became the biggest selling ring tone to date. The CD release of that version also hit the English charts and went straight to # 1, being one of the top selling single CDs in 2005.

In 1989 after the birth of his first child, Harold moved from Los Angeles back to Germany to raise a family but kept working in his Munich based Red Deer Studios. He produced the highly successful Pet Shop Boys album Behavior there in 1990. In 1991 he and his wife were blessed with twins. During 1992-1997 he spent the majority of his time in Munich working on several Euro Movies, TV Series and developing new artists. In 1997 Harold met Austria’s multi-platinum seller Rainhard Fendrich with whom he composed and produced a trilogy of very successful albums and also a musical – Wake Up, which had its premiere

September 2002 in Vienna’s famous Raimund Theatre. The musical played through January 2004 and had more than 300 performances with a total of 320,000 visitors. In 2006, Harold scored a chart-topping video game Two Worlds, and then turned his focus back to developing new artists for the European market from 2007 to 2008. In 2009, with all 3 children fully grown, the time was right to come back to Hollywood. First project up was John Stalberg’s debut feature High School (August 2009) staring Adrien Brody and Michael Chiklis. He then got the nod from director Kevin Smith and produced the music for Cop Out for Warner Brothers starring Bruce Willis and Tracy Morgan, released in 2010.

PR: SHINE – Original Motion Picture Soundtrack

VARÈSE SARABANDE RECORDS TO RELEASE SHINE – ORIGINAL MOTION PICTURE SOUNDTRACK

Soundtrack features the greatest legends of Salsa!

Celebrate Spanish Harlem with Willie Colón, Tito Puente and others from world famous Fania Records

(October 5, 2018 – Los Angeles, CA) – Varèse Sarabande is excited to announce the SHINE – Original Motion Picture Soundtrack releasing digitally on October 5, 2018 and on CD on November 16th. Salsa was born on the streets of Spanish Harlem before transcending to a global audience, and the Fania label was the catalyst. The soundtrack to Shine mines the tremendous Fania catalog, featuring songs from Willie Colón, Tito Puente, Eddie Palmieri and the Fania All-Stars among others.

SHINE is a story about two brothers, once renowned NYC salsa dancers, now on opposing ends of neighborhood gentrification, who must face each other in the shadow of their father’s death and a family legacy in the Spanish Harlem arts community. SHINE is a film that showcases the culture and tradition within the Nuyorican community with salsa music and street dance as a way of life. The dance defines the film’s central characters and echoes the story plot lines of seduction and love to anger and betrayal. The soundtrack to SHINE dives into the Fania catalog, and features many lesser known, but no less incredible songs.  It serves as not only a great introduction for those unfamiliar with salsa, but also a logical next step for fans looking to deepen their appreciation.

Dominican-born composer and bandleader Johnny Pacheco and Attorney Jerry Masucci founded Fania in 1964. Fania’s roster includes nearly all the original salsa greats; Willie Colón, Celia Cruz, Rubén Blades, Héctor Lavoe and many others.  Even salsa stars affiliated with other labels such as Tito Puente and Eddie Palmieri made great music with Fania during their careers.
