The internationally acclaimed composer, DJ and electronic studio wizard MATTHEW HERBERT goes to the movies on his latest album ‘Score’. Showcasing yet another of his multiple m usical personalities, these 17 tracks cover the first decade in Herbert's burgeoning resume as a writer of film scores, alongside a unique ballet collaboration.
Over the past decade, Herbert has amassed an unsurpassed portfolio of highly praised releases under his own name (HERBERT) + many others. He has also produced and remixed artists as diverse as BJÖRK, ROISIN MURPHY, REM, JOHN CALE, and SERGE GAINSBOURG.
Here Matthew draws on all aspects of this prolific musical career with ‘Score’ – the movie soundtracks that feature on this collection range from the sun-scorched melodrama of SANTIAGO TABERNERO's Spanish film about the death of Franco to the haunted pianos of KRISTIAN LEVRING's colonial yarn ‘The Intended’, via the electronics & classical minimalism of ‘Rendezvous’. Other films featured on Score are ‘Vida Y Color’ in which Herbert won an award for BEST ORIGINAL SCORE at the TOULOUSE CINE ESPANA FESTIVAL and ‘Manolete’ featuring ADRIAN BRODY & PENELOPE CRUZ released later in 2007!
‘Score’ contains some of his most traditional and straightforward pieces to date. His 2003 bigband jazz album ‘Goodbye Swingtime’, for example, grew out of his artfully retro-modern score for the French director BLANCA LI's hip-hop musical ‘Le Defi’, Li is one of Europe´s top choreographers (GORILLAZ, DAFT PUNK).
Most of the tracks featured on ‘Score’ are exclusives ‘Score’ gives every Matthew Herbert fan the full picture of the works of a true multi talented, musical genius and is a widescreen blockbuster epic of challenging, stirring, exhilarating soundscapes . It is an action adventure, chase thriller, romantic comedy and emotionally charged psychodrama all rolled into one.
