Subject: Soundtracks
Hi, Has Kate ever mentioned doing or being approached for an entire movie soundtrack? Not just one or two songs. I think Peter Gabriels soundtrack work is superb (Birdie, Passion). Tangerine Dreams soundtracks have produced some of their best music (Thief, The Keep) and their worst (Wavelength, Risky Business) in my opinion. BTW was the Keep soundtrack ever released at all? It contains pieces of Logos in addition to some fascinating reinterpretations of Thomas Tallis' Masses (c 15th century). I can't find it anywhere! For those interested in an ethnic twist, check out the soundtrack to "Where the River Runs Black" by James Horner. He creates a haunting feel with his synths (Synclaviers, I think). Even more haunting are the soundtracks by Popol Vuh. The one to "Nosferatu" and "Courre de Verre" are probably their best. I didn't think "Fitzcarraldo" was as good. I've been 'hounding' WXPN here in Philly about TSW and they expect to have it in soon, so hang tight Philly love-hounds!
