Intrada is proud to announce the CD release of Christopher Young's horror score to Paramount Pictures' new film, Passenger. Coming on the heels of Young's symphonic, concert-oriented score to The Piper, the composer takes an entirely different approach here. The score has two personalities, as if he composed two entirely separate scores integrated into a single nightmarish journey. One part is St. Christopher, composed for men and boy's chorus, presenting an ethereal, quasi-religious atmosphere. The second part is Passenger, several movements of atmosopheric electronic and vocal scoring performed by Young and guitarist Brandon Brown. It's unstable, unreliable, and dissonantly off?the perfect atmosphere to fit the film's narrative. The CD was produced by Young along with John Jae Lee and Matthew Rosales and mastered by Doug Schwartz at Mulholland Music.
The film is a supernatural horror thriller directed by Andre Ovredal that follows Tyler and Maddie, a young couple living the "van life" dream across America. Their road trip turns nightmarish after they witness a gruesome highway accident. Soon they realize they didn’t leave the crash site alone: a relentless demonic entity known only as "The Passenger" has attached itself to them, stalking them from town to town and transforming their carefree adventure into a terrifying fight for survival.
The album is also available digitally on Lakeshore Records and available to listen to on your preferred digital platform.
パラマウント・ピクチャーズの新作ホラー映画『PASSENGER』のサウンドトラックがリリース！音楽はクリストファー・ヤング。
トラックリスト『The Piper』で披露したシンフォニックでコンサート向けの楽曲とは一線を画し、本作では全く異なるアプローチを採用しています。このサウンドトラックには二つの顔があり、まるで二つの全く異なる楽曲が、一つの悪夢のような旅路へと融合されたかのようです。その一つは“St. Christopher”で、男性と少年合唱団のために作曲され、幽玄で宗教的な雰囲気を醸し出しています。もう一つは“Passenger”で、ヤングとギタリストのブランドン・ブラウンが演奏する、雰囲気のある電子音とボーカルを駆使した数曲から成ります。不安定で、頼りにならず、不協和音に満ちたこの音楽は、映画の物語に完璧にマッチする雰囲気を醸し出しています。
このCDは、ヤングがジョン・ジェ・リー、マシュー・ロサレスと共にプロデュースし、マルホランド・ミュージックのダグ・シュワルツがマスタリングを担当。
本作はアンドレ・オーヴレダル監督による超自然ホラー・スリラーで、アメリカ全土を「バンライフ」の夢を追って旅する若いカップル、タイラーとマディの物語だ。彼らのロードトリップは、凄惨な高速道路の事故を目撃したことをきっかけに悪夢へと変わる。やがて二人は、事故現場から一人きりで立ち去ったわけではないことに気づく。「ザ・パッセンジャー」としか知られていない執拗な悪魔的な存在が彼らに憑依し、町から町へと追跡し、のんきな冒険を恐ろしい生存をかけた戦いに変えていくのだ。
