  1. FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

    LAKESHORE RECORDS PRESENTS
    THE DISAPPEARANCE OF ELEANOR RIGBY ORIGINAL MOTION PICTURE SOUNDTRACK

    Featuring The Original Track “No Fate Awaits Me” by Son Lux with Faux Fix
    And Songs by Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark, Elliphant, Roxxpin and Cat Power

    (October 23, 2014– Los Angeles, CA) – Lakeshore Records will release THE DISAPPEARANCE OF ELEANOR RIGBY – Original Motion Picture Soundtrack digitally on October 28, 2014, and on CD November 18, 2014. The album features the original track “No Fate Awaits Me,” performed by the film’s composer Son Lux with Faux Fix, and songs by Cat Power, Elliphant, Amason, Roxxpin and the classic cut So In Love by Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark.

    “I wrote the script listening to music, the title was inspired by the Beatles' song, I gave playlists to the actors that I thought were relevant to their characters, and we even shot certain scenes based on the rhythm and mood of certain songs,” said writer/director Ned Benson.

    With his unique vision, writer/director Ned Benson ambitiously captures a complete picture of a relationship in the beautifully relatable portrait of love, empathy and truth that is THE DISAPPEARANCE OF ELEANOR RIGBY.

    Once happily married, Connor (James McAvoy) and Eleanor (Jessica Chastain) suddenly find themselves as strangers longing to understand each other in the wake of tragedy. The film explores the couple’s story as they try to reclaim the life and love they once knew and pick up the pieces of a past that may be too far gone.

    Screened for the first time at the 2014 Cannes Film Festival, Benson’s latest version of their story combines his previous two films – title HIM and HER – uniting their perspectives and taking a further look into the subjectivity of relationships.

    “I think the most exciting thing for me was working on the score with the composer Son Lux aka Ryan Lott,” Benson described. “Ryan and his collaborators made instruments for the film, and he had the beautiful idea after watching an early cut to use objects that exist within the space of the scenes and create instruments based on them so they feel germane to the story.”

  2. Is this project - film or score - in any way related to THE BEATLES?
    Bach's music is vibrant and inspired.
  3. Characters in the 'Her' film occasionally ask the same thing, and the answer is about as satisfying as the one I'm going to give you now: "Not really. Maybe."

    I like the music that Son Lux composed for it. I heard the "Inspired by" cd and was triggered to listen to it because of Thor's radio show. Dreamy music, lots of vocals too, very hip as well.

    Love it! One of the year's best. Knowing your love of post-rock and Icelandic bands, I'm not surprised you fancied this, Bregt!
    I am extremely serious.

    It sometimes sounds like the laid back version of M83 too.

    In any case, thanks for the tip! Your show has effect. wink
