Description
Golden Globe and Grammy nominated composer Clint Mansell's brooding, edgy and beautifully unsettled orchestral score to Ben Wheatley's acclaimed film adaptation of J.G Ballard's High-Rise. Described by Hollywood Reporter as "a lustrous retro-classical score bursting with ironic good cheer", Clint Mansell's music has a meaty, steadfast presence throughout the visual spectacular of the savage societal breakdown.
Former Pop Will Eat Itself frontman turned soundtrack composer, Clint Mansell is best known for his work with long-time collaborator Darren Aronofsky (Requiem for a Dream, Black Swan, The Fountain, Noah). He also scored Duncan Jones' Directorial debut Moon, and has lent his talent to films as diverse as Filth, Faster, and Last Night.
"The soundtrack sounded incredible in the cinema. I was very f**king happy indeed... Revel in the sound of a bombastic and hubristic 70s that was doomed to failure...Enjoy." - Ben Wheatley
''Proud to proclaim that in divisive world of Ben Wheatley's High Rise, I'm solidly in the YES camp. Particular plaudits to Clint Mansell'' - Mark Kermode, BBC
