kaini Posted September 21, 2008 Report Share Posted September 21, 2008 (edited) what a beautiful song. iirc this is (one of) the only soundtracks paul giovanni ever wrote? here's the original and here's a fantastic fantastic cover with theremin and max/msp patch and christopher lee samples by spacedog, for people too electronic music for the original extra points for theremin-controlled timestretching at the start. god i love this cover Edited September 21, 2008 by kaini Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Hide kaini's signature Hide all signatures On 5/7/2013 at 11:06 PM, ambermonk said: I know IDM can be extreme On 6/3/2017 at 11:50 PM, ladalaika said: this sounds like an airplane landing on a minefield Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/38080-willows-song-from-the-wickerman-appreciation/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest The Vidiot Posted September 21, 2008 Report Share Posted September 21, 2008 Can anyone define Hauntology for me? Is it Derrida's explanation that, at the end of history, man will fall in love with everything from the past? Doesn't it have to do with nostalgia or some shit?

Caretstik Posted September 21, 2008 Report Share Posted September 21, 2008 The song is fucking incredible. I saw the Wicker Man when I was way too young to have, and Willow's Song has stayed with me my whole life. It's beautiful and more sexually charged than anything else I've ever heard. There are two recordings aren't there? The one I have is on the longer soundtrack album (the one released on Trunk) and is lifted directly from the film itself. Also, The Wicker Man (original, obviously) is a fucking brilliant film, probably one of my favourites of all time.

According to Hauntology the present exists only because of the respect to the past. After the "end of history" man will orient itself towards the ideas of the past. That's a really short explanation, I know, but I think it sums up the ideas pretty well.

Is it Derrida's explanation that, at the end of history, man will fall in love with everything from the past? Doesn't it have to do with nostalgia or some shit? the term in terms of musical genre is only loosely related to derrida's concept. the best possible thing you can read is an article called haunted audio which appeared in the november 2006 issue of the wire as well as the author, simon reynolds' blog. maybe my ghost box records articles on wiki as well? key things in hauntology are what people had in the 60s and 70s thought the future would be like, degraded public information films with a vague sense of dread, library music, people wearing suits to announce stuff on the radio, 80s sense of vague cold war dread, the odder end of 60s psych, hp lovecraft and cthulhu and all that jazz, records that you couldn't place an era on if you didn't already know, the bbc radiophonic workshop, and vague dread. key record labels: trunk records, ghost box, old library music records and shit, stuff that hasn't aged well key artists: the focus group, ariel pink, belbury poly, boards of canada (to a degree), the advisory circle. hmmm maybe broadcast in places. basically what the wire define as haunted audio: the past's vision of the future revisited, the present's longing for the past, and mundane life somehow corrupted by the ghosts of earlier times; half the town attending pagan rituals going on in the school gym at solstice. wickerman shit.

Caretstik Posted September 21, 2008 Report Share Posted September 21, 2008 (edited) ieafs said: there's this instrumental song i really love from it though... i haven't seen the movie in years though - it's a short descending autoharp scale thing that keeps repeating with a female harmony vocal over it. i've got a tape of it somewhere, but it's a bit of a hassle to record a clip. anyone know what one i mean? Sounds like 'The Anointing' (as it's listed on the OST, from right near the end).
