Free Music Review: Derrick Scocchera's "A Perfect Place"
Hit: 5 Stars
Derrick Scocchera's "A Perfect Place" is a short black and white film featuring a profoundly eclectic soundtrack by Mike Patton. This black comedy follows Tom (Mark Boone Junior) and poker bubby Eddie (Bill Moseley) in their dilemma of finding a perfect place to bury the body of flatmate Dennis (Tom Miller) when battered by a bass guitar. A Perfect Place is a pseudo-haunting and playfully humourous story from Fantoma Films, landmarking Ipecac Recordings' 100th release in a special edition film and soundtrack package. This CD and DVD release includes "A Perfect Place" movie, scene selection, trailer, and fifteen song soundtrack.
Mike Patton's soundtrack to "A Perfect Place" takes you through the surreal and suspenseful tones of a short film from Derrick Scocchera. A perfect blend of jazz-rock and noise-pop for "A Perfect Twist (Vocal)", Komeda-style lullaby vocals on "A Little Poker Tomorrow Night?", 1930's pop-swing on "A Dream Of Roses", with "Swinging The Body" referencing Mancini's "Charade", kooky organ on "Catholic Tribe", and outstanding operatic vocals on "Il Cupo Dolore". All music was written, performed, produced, and mixed by Mike Patton, with additional percussion by Mr. Bungle's drummer Danny Heifetz and William Winant on "Main Title" and "Batucada".

So, I'm a Mike Patton junkie....but I'm one of those junkies that can admit when something he does sucks, so I don't feel too biased in saying that this is brilliant...
The fact that the film and the score come together, makes this one of the most sensible purchases of the year. The film is exactly what you'd expect, It looks gorgeous, and holds your interest, The performances are great, and it's a shame that this is essentially coming into the world as a cult film, because more people should be able to see it.
The score is one Patton fans have waited for for years...it's the type of score that can be used as background music when you're driving, or cleaning the house, but that also begs to have you sit down with a glass of wine and just absorb it all, every note, and every sound. Rare is the music that lets you do both of those things with it.
Free Music Review: Mike Patton is the greatest!!
Hit: 5 Stars
Mike Patton creates a film score that would make the geniuses like Ennio Morricone and Angelo Badalamenti (both of whom he covered with Fantomas on their fantastic Director's Cut), proud. A new release from Patton is always cause for excitement and, as with so many of his projects, this one doesn't disappoint. As a bonus, it comes with a DVD of the movie that it was made for. A must for any Mike Patton fan.Free Music Review: A perfect place

Big mike patton fan.. The soundtrack is great.. Thats the reason i bought the album .. Its the type of music where you can sit on you're friends couch and space out for hours.Most of pattons music is that or u feel like you're on a Mind trip.. As for the film it was terrible could of been a little longer and had better acting.. They must of filmed this short in a day or two...AHH THANK GOD FOR MIKE PATTON.Free Music Review: Would have gone better with Deathday!
Hit: 5 Stars
The soundtrack, as all Patton fans will have been sure about, is excellent and Patton has done an awesome job, the film is so so. Typically well packaged as again all Patton fans now expect - i will now shamelessly promote my own book - DEATHDAY BY EUGENE BRUCE (No. 23 in the list if you type my name in)and id be over the moon if you bought it! Thank you, i love you in every way!
