More creepy music that inspires Dark5’s weird YouTube soundtracks…
Over the weekend, Nine Inch Nails front man, Trent Reznor, released his latest collaboration with dark ambient and electronic composer, Atticus Ross, and director of Gone Girl, David Fincher. The group last worked together on the Academy Award winning soundtrack for The Social Network, focusing on a theme of “creativity.” The mood for Gone Girl is decidedly more sinister… Here is a inspiration for the score as described by Reznor and Fincher in a recent interview with the Wall Street Journal:
Reznor: “[Fincher] said, ‘Think about the really terrible music you hear in massage parlors… The way that it artificially tries to make you feel like everything’s OK. And then imagine that sound starting to curdle and unravel.'”
Fincher: “I said a spa, not a massage parlor! I was listening to that calming, placating music and thought, we need to tap into this. The movie is about the facade of the good neighbor, the good Christian, the good wife. So the notion was to start with music that’s attempting to give you a hug.”
Please accept Dark5’s warm embrace.
