The Hollywood Orchestra 'Theme From Forbidden Planet'

The Hollywood orchestra, not at all a made up name for some session musicians, covering the theme to a film that I thought originally had a purely electronic soundtrack, on a budget label, cheap vinyl, photocopied sleeve...
Regardless, this certainly ranks as 50p well spent, listen to the way that the theremin (tone generator? psychosonic thingammyjig?) sweeps up through the frequency ranges all over those beautiful, vague, simulated-stereo-strings. Breaks and makes my heart everytime.



AND massive thanks to Rico and all at Ichione for a brilliant show in Amsterdam (photo above is by legendary (?) dutch graffitist (yeah I said it) Lazer 3.14)
