SO LET US MELT

2017 release. Earlier this year, Black Screen Records was delighted to release BAFTA-winning composer Jessica Curry's acclaimed soundtrack to the classic game Dear Esther on physical formats for the game's fifth anniversary. We are excited to announce that we will be releasing Curry's score to The Chinese Room's upcoming Google Daydream VR game So Let Us Melt. Like the game, Curry's soundtrack moves through wonder and joy to shock and melancholy, amazement and mystery. It captures the playful energy of the singing machines as they make friends and build the world together; the epic drama of a story that spans an entire world and over ten million years. It is bright and brilliant at one moment, raw and hollow the next. It is full of hope and awe and a wonderful energy that sees Curry evolve beyond the moody atmospherics of Dear Esther and the pastoral beauty of Everybody's Gone to the Rapture to something fresh and deeply original. So Let Us Melt fuses choral traditions with contemporary minimalism, joyful and moving string and harp with playful electronics and samples. In So Let Us Melt, we hear a composer utterly at ease with her own unique and developing voice, breaking beyond themes and accents to create a sonic journey that perfectly captures the bittersweet wonder and myth-building of the game. This is an album full of warmth and life and it is unlike any other soundtrack you will hear this year.
