Chromatics
Kill for Love
Genre: Electronica/Italo Disco
There's a reason Chromatics main writer and producer Johnny Jewel was on the short-list of composers considered to score last year's best film, Drive. It's partly because his band's sound was exactly what director Nicolas Winding Refn was looking for, but really it's because the music is just so damn good. It's dark without being depressing, poppy without selling out, minimalist without being Peaches, noisy without being A Place to Bury Strangers. So what if Johnny Jewel didn't get to score Drive? His band and two others he produces still made it onto the soundtrack, and with good reason...this stuff is plain good.
