Aphex Twin Sleep Furiously

I randomly searched Aphex Twin on imdb.com today, and came up with this film Sleep Furiously documentary directed by Gideon Koppel, which apparently has a soundtrack by Aphex Twin. Don't think I've heard it mentioned here.

The film appears to be premiering at the Endiburgh Film Festival this June. http://www.edfilmfest.org.uk/films/sleep-furiously/

Can't find any final word on whether the score is original stuff or rehashed, but from what I gather it very well might be new.

Sorry if this has a thread on it I've missed.

wooo

massive fest

brilliant, it says 'original soundtrack' so im presuming its er, an original soundtrack!

(ps. soundtracks are all the rage now)

It would be about time we got official versions of those tracks!

I'm just hoping it's not rehashing of stuff he's already done. Even if it were new mixes and shit, an honestly original soundtrack composed specifically for the film would kick ass. And if it is, it best be getting a release somewhere.

But I'm skeptical because of how many things get called "original" soundtracks.

richard bothering to compose a full score of new music? we'll see. does sound quite promising though

reading through his imdb profile it mentions under the 'self' all of his music videos. does this mean that he was in them all? anyone know where?

silly imdb. just because a lady in a bikini is wearing a mask of richard d james, doesnt actually mean it's richard d james.

..........More on this in the Guardian last Saturday......

Found it on the web....http://www.guardian.co.uk/film/2009/may/09/sleep-furiously-film-mark-ford

"Things dying, however, absorb the film's final section, hauntingly scored by Aphex Twin, whose soundtrack throughout is superb."

I vaguely remember there being posts in this thread a while ago which lead me to believe it was just old material, like SAW2. Now I'm really confused..... and must have been thinking of another movie, another thread?

you're right.

so can i download the mp3's somewhere or do i have to watch the movie

Yeah no way in hell Richie is going to compose tracks especially for a docu. When asked to use his ambient tracks he just said "sure" and Chrysalis said "yes".

*sleeps furiously*

I am pretty sure I talked to the director of this and he said its just older material...

Older unreleased material?

released

Got two sisters. One's a fucking good linguist and the other one's a fucking good lawyer.

Linguistics is interesting.

Yeah. It is pretty good. I didn't realize it was good until she told me about it. It's hardcore.

everything's connected
