El track " No Light No Light " original de Florence and the Machine, pasó por las manos de la banda originaria del Reino Unido, Spector , quienes se encargaron de añadir capas y pinceladas electrónicas y procesaron la voz de Florence, logrando que el track (que de por sí era muy intenso) sea un completo ataque directo a los sentidos. Pero, ¿qué tiene que ver todo esto con Ryan Gosling ? Sencillo, la entrada del remix tiene algunas insinuaciones del score original de la película Drive , en la que Ryan aparece como el personaje principal. [...]
"But he's been pretty much yellow And I've been kinda blue But all I can see is Red, red, red, red, red now What am I gonna do?" -- "Red Red Red," Fiona Apple The color red. My God, there was so much of it in Drive ! I've really got to learn how to stomach red red red, particularly when it's gushing forth from human bodies on movie and TV screens. For weeks, reviews that promised there'd be lots of that in [...]
Gli ultimi giorni dell'anno sono giorni di classifiche. Questi sono gli album che ho ascoltato di più, sono parecchi perché quando ci son da fare delle scelte non riesco mai a decidermi. Non c'è un ordine, ho aperto la cartella della musica scaricata quest'anno e ho copiato e incollato i nomi dei dischi che son stati la colonna sonora del mio 2011, tutto qui. Come al solito puntando la copertina vengono fuori nome del gruppo, titolo dell'album e cliccandoci sopra si arriva a qualcosa da ascoltare. Divertitevi. [...]
Getty Images This year, we bid farewell to Amy Winehouse , Clarence Clemons and Heavy D and said hello to ' Lulu .' R.E.M. called it quits, while Creed began work on a new album. Axl Rose took Guns N' Roses back on the road, but Izzy, Slash and Duff were still nowhere to be found. Clearly, 2011 has been less than perfect. But the news hasn't been all bad, and if New England's 17th century pilgrims [...]
Filed under: News , Exclusive , RPM , Q + A Cliff Martinez | Amazon After playing drums for Captain Beefheart , Lydia Lunch and the Red Hot Chili Peppers , Cliff Martinez became the "go-to guy" for ambient film scores due to the success of his stark, contemplative work on Steven Soderbergh 's breakout hit ' Sex, Lies and Videotape .' Over the past [...]
The soundtrack for the new uber cool (uber violent!) movie Drive is a great nod to 802s synth pop. Cliff Martinez's score used the droning, almost dissonant synth noises to keep the tension in sixth gear from the start. The film achieved suspense with absolutey minimal dialogue, which could provide a point that most appearances of tension come through non-verbal communication. As for the movie itself, it is a must-see. The soundtrack's highlight for me was the illusion of hope provided with the film's closing track A Real Hero by College and Electric Youth. Take a listen [...]
Ever since I saw Drive last month I've been trying to track down a physical copy of the official soundtrack, composed by one Cliff Martinez (Fun Fact: he was the drummer for the Red Hot Chili Peppers for a few years in the '80s). I finally ended up having to order it on Amazon, and it arrived in the mail yesterday. This particular soundtrack is absolutely fantastic and has kind of sparked an interest in the field of soundtracks. I spun the Drive soundtrack driving to $1 Beer Night last evening, and it was definitely a [...]

Ryan Gosling in Drive The trailer for the new film Drive promise heavy action, car chases, and a hot romance with a heroic Ryan Gosling. Both the film and its soundtrack, however, are more quietly subversive than its marketing suggests. The film's Danish director, Nicolas Winding Refn, has created a moody neo noir that defies audience's expectations. Recalling the dark disco sound of Giorgio Moroder scores of the 1970s and 1980s ( Cat People , Midnight Express ), the songs and score by former Red Hot Chili Pepper Cliff Martinez are winningly [...]
If you haven't seen Ryan Gosling in Drive yet, do yourself a favor and visit your local cineplex this weekend - or tonight. Channeling his inner '80s Michael Mann and John Carpenter, director Nicolas Winding Refn ( Bronson , Valhalla Rising ) has carved out 90 minutes of pure cinematic glory. It's a sparse tale about a Hollywood stuntman, who doubles as a hired wheelman, dealing with a heist gone wrong. Both Gosling and Albert Brooks deliver head-turning performances, while Refn solidifies himself as a director to follow. On top of it, there's one scorcher of a [...]
The new major motion picture "Drive"--starring dreamy Ryan Gosling along with the likes of Carey Mulligan, Ron Perlman, Bryan Cranston, Albert Brooks and more--hits theaters around the country this Friday, September 16 ( check out the trailer now ), and we're super proud to be doing a contest to celebrate the movie's premiere and the unveiling of the movie's soundtrack. The soundtrack album includes an original score by Cliff Martinez, one-time drummer for Lydia Lunch, the Red Hot Chili Peppers and Captain Beefheart and it will also feature songs by Kavinsky & Lovefoxxx, The Chromatics, [...]

Electric Youth) and Chromatics' epic track "Tick Of The Clock", which runs over 15 minutes! The OST will be available digitally on September 6th. Until then, grab Desire's "Under Your Spell" below and drive fast. [...]

Although it's gone a bit quiet lately, there's an exceptional set of dense, subtle microsound mixes by or involving the fine Marconi Union ( MySpace / Wikipedia ) & fellow dubby ambientronica Dotca label mates like b:dum b:dum . One of the best of these 'Podcasts' is the most recent (though hardly super-fresh, since it dates from last May), Prospector's 7.0 ( zShare ) [NB: file is 31MB]. Includes such LMYE favourites as Pan-American , Stars of the Lid & [...]
