The Last Drive In (Original Soundtrack)

The Last Drive in follows the life of a Drive In Movie Theatre from the days of whirring 35mm film projectors to the soulless advent of digital projection. The gathering of community and a common love of film and art that only a Drive In Theatre can provide. And when the world outside seems to much the ambient glow of the theatre screen can take you away from everyone and everything. 

Set over 400 years the film takes us from 1990 to 2392 as we witness the fall of humanity from within the confines of the Drive In Theatre. Shot using only four static scenes The Last Drive In is a rich and deeply introspective experience.

Sadly Not Ever After

Losing a loved one can be hard enough but, imagine for a moment losing someone and something that could have been. That lost love from a younger time, a distant past. Taken cruelly well before their time, your mind building worlds that could have been. A journey never travelled, a home never built, a child never born.

Asylum Beyond

Asylum Beyond tells the story of the 1968 Fairhaven Murders committed by antique store owner Ernest Seminov and his subsequent incarceration in the infamous Ravenfield Asylum. Ernest Seminov killed his wife and two daughters in what police described as bizarre ritualistic killings. Their dismembered bodies had been rearranged to form what appeared to be crudely oblique symbols formed into a circle and connected by blood that he had drawn from his own slit wrists. Ernest Semenov was found slumped upright in the centre of his macabre creation by neighbours who claimed he was mumbling in a language they could not understand.

Our protagonists journey from the previous album is a shadowy narrative walking hand in hand with the fatal attraction that is Aokigahara.

Aokigahara

Aokigahara (青木ヶ原), known as the Suicide Forest is a 35-square-kilometre forest that lies at the northwest base of Mount Fuji in Japan. Aokigahara forest is dense, shutting out all but the natural sounds of the forest itself. The forest has an historic association with demons in Japanese mythology, and it is a notoriously common suicide site.

Flowers for Bodysnatchers explores the long journey to Aokigahara through soundscapes ripe with lonely pianos on textural backdrops. Spending countless hours field recording on the voyage between Tokyo to Aokigahara which creates the perfect atmospheric companion to the intricate instrumental approach. This is a beautiful dark ambient soundtrack culminating in the final choice between life and death.

S O L A R I S

Solaris is an album based on the 1961 Polish philosophical science fiction novel by Stanisław Lem. The book centers upon the themes of the nature of human memory, experience and the ultimate inadequacy of communication between human and non-human species.

In probing and examining the oceanic surface of the planet Solaris from a hovering research station the human scientists are, in turn, being studied by the sentient planet itself, which probes for and examines the thoughts of the human beings who are analyzing it. Solaris has the ability to manifest their secret, guilty concerns in human form, for each scientist to personally confront.

Solaris is one of Lem’s philosophic explorations of man’s anthropomorphic limitations. First published in Warsaw in 1961.
