So you know that secret Johnny Jewel score that was supposedly written for 2011's cinematic masterpiece Drive? Well this isn't it. However, Johnny Jewel has put together a two hour score for an "imaginary film". It has all the joys and pulsations you might expect from the a Jewel project. You can stream it below. The following is an excerpt from the Symmetry Soundcloud page:
"Three years in the making, Symmetry - the project that began as a conceptual tangent between Glass Candy, Chromatics, Mirage, & Desire's more abstract sides - finally sees its release this month. Themes For An Imaginary Film is two hours of claustrophobic cinematic bliss compiled for Painters, Writers, Photographers, Designers, Cruisers, Night Walkers, & Dreamers. Adrenaline drips thick like syrup across a horizon where memories become blurred scenes behind the windshield & yesterday's faces fade as the road strobes to aggressive rhythms. Romantic melodies linger in the rearview mirror as chimera bells saturate the electric fog that's slowly rolling in."
Wasn't aware of this at all, thanks for sharing!
