Exotic Themes From The Silver Screen Volume One CD

Mutant is proud to present Academy Award-winning composer Michael Giacchino\’s latest album, Exotic Themes for the Silver Screen Volume 1, featuring iconic scores from Giacchino\’s extensive portfolio rendered in the retro lounge style of Exotica from the 1950s. It\’s no secret that we at Mutant are huge fans of Michael Giacchino, says Spencer Hickman, Co-Founder of Mutant. We\’re excited to release a retrospective of his astonishing three decades as a composer. Rather than just curating a simple compilation of his previous works, Michael went back into the studio, rearranged and re-recorded every major theme from his career. These tracks have been recorded in an Easy Listening style inspired by such greats as Martin Denny and Les Baxter, creating not just a unique and incredible look back at some of the most beloved movie and television themes of the modern age, but also bringing a fresh, exciting take to the beautiful journey he has taken us all on with him. It feels like you are discovering these songs for the very first time: timeless, beautiful, and a joy to listen to. These newly recorded themes transport you to a far-off sunset, looking out at the ocean, complete with a cocktail in hand, providing a much-needed escape from the stress of modern times, and we can all agree that is something we all crave right now. Exotic Themes for the Silver Screen Volume 1 spans nearly two decades of Michael Giacchinos music, from his early video game scores to his television hits and blockbuster films. The album transforms these works through the lens of Exotica, replacing epic strings and thundering drums with vibraphones and marimbas. Tracklist: CD11.
