Mutant, in partnership with WaterTower Music, are proud to present the premiere physical release of Hrishikesh Hirway's score to COMPANION.
Hrishikesh Hirway's (creator of the award-winning podcast Song Exploder) score begins by earnestly paying tribute to the plucky romance at the center. It invites you, lovingly into its rose-colored world just long enough to lower your guard before deftly switching gears into the twisted genre score buried underneath.
Chaotic as that may sound, the score is continually grounded with an incredible melodic hook incorporating lead actor Sophie Thatcher's voice ("Iris' Theme"), that pays homage to another fractured fairy tale, Rosemary's Baby. But don't read too much into that comparison. The twists and turns of COMPANION are uniquely their own, and best avoided for the optimal experience.
Featuring artwork by Greg Ruth, and pressed on Mutant Exclusive 140 gram pink marble vinyl.

フリシケシュ・ヒルウェイによる『COMPANION』のスコアがアナログ盤でリリース！
トラックリスト受賞歴のあるポッドキャスト『Song Exploder』の制作者であるフリシケシュ・ヒルウェイのスコアは、まず、中心にある勇敢なロマンスに真摯に敬意を表している。そのバラ色の世界に愛情を込めて誘い込み、警戒心を解いてから、その下に埋もれているひねくれたジャンルのスコアに巧みにギアを切り替える。
カオスに聞こえるかもしれないが、主役のソフィー・サッチャーの歌声（「アイリスのテーマ」）を取り入れた素晴らしいメロディックなフックによって、このスコアは絶えず地に足をつけており、もうひとつの分裂したおとぎ話『ローズマリーの赤ちゃん』へのオマージュとなっている。しかし、その比較に深読みは禁物だ。COMPANIONの紆余曲折は独自のものであり、最適な体験のためには避けるのがベストだ。
グレッグ・ルースによるアートワークをフィーチャーし、Mutant Exclusive 140g重量盤ピンク・マーブル盤でリリース。
このスコアは140g重量盤のミュータント限定カラー・レコードでリリース！
