Description

Invada Records and Lakeshore Records co-release ‘Luce:

Original Motion Picture Soundtrack’, featuring original score

by Ben Salisbury and Geoff Barrow (‘Annihilation’).

 ‘Luce’ stars Naomi Watts, Octavia Spencer, Tim Roth and

Kelvin Harrison, Jr. Stacked with amazing performances

and adapted from JC Lee’s acclaimed play, director Julius

Onah has created an intense, multi-layered and deeply

entertaining look at identity in today’s America.

 Certain to be one of the most talked-about films of the

year, ‘Luce’ is a smart psychological thriller that will leave

audiences breathless.

 Says Ben Salisbury: “The script for ‘Luce’ had such an

impact on us, that we not only jumped at the chance to be

involved, but also immediately came up with a theme for

Luce himself. This was one of those rare occasions where

our very first response, informed by Julius Onah’s

incredibly strong vision, ended up being the catalyst for

the whole score.

 “The music is predominately performed on church organ,

which seemed the ideal instrument to provide the sort of

‘cold emotion’ that was often required, and could also be

used to build tension and contribute to the general sense

of unease.

 “It was a real privilege to be involved in a film where the

drama is so nuanced, and the character allegiances and

emotions are constantly shifting. When a film purposefully

asks difficult questions, and doesn’t attempt to provide

easy answers, you are obliged as composers, to leave the

musical ‘sledgehammer’ alone. This is often a very good

thing!”

 Pressed on 180g vinyl in a spined sleeve with digital
