Free Music Notes for Inland Empire (Original Soundtrack)
Free Music Review: Music for... "A woman in trouble"
Hit: 4 Stars
One thing that Lynch cannot be criticized for is producing shallow and brief soundtracks. About 30 seconds short of 80 minutes, the soundtrack to INLAND EMPIRE is just as sonically dense as Lynch's films are visually.
Included on this disc of 17 tracks are 6 compositions written and performed solely by Lynch. The powerful Ghosts of Love ("...Strange what love does..."), and the beautiful Polish Poem (with Chrysta Bell) - frame 14 other songs that include music from Beck, Dave Brubeck, Little Eva and Montovani! The five other compositions by Lynch are dark and moody and though familiar in style to other Lynch music, still holds something new and engaging. Included also are 4 tracks that are from Polish collaborators one of which (Polish Night Music), is one of the most haunting pieces on the entire CD. Rounding out the soundtrack, as in the movie, is Nina Simone's redemptive Sinnerman.
The music in Lynch's films are like pieces of furniture and very consciously placed within the film - in a sort of cinematic feng shiu. Lynch's deep involvement with creating/choosing sound as well as other elements of film work far exceeds that of many, if not most current directors. He's a carpenter, a painter, a lighting and set designer, and a composer. This lends his work to something more personal and intimate. Lynch has made it clear that he has little interest in returning to film as a medium (INLAND EMPIRE was shot entirely on digital video). And the music on Inland Empire is more than incidental: it is as vital as the images. If you're a fan of David Lynch's work, there is no reason why you would not want to add this title to your collection.
Free Music Review: Disturbing...
Hit: 4 Stars
In almost 79 minutes, this soundtrack leads you through a very-dark, psycotic and frightening places: Probably all of them allocated in our own hearts and minds. Awesome soundtrack!
