Rhombus (Film Soundtrack)

by Darkroom

supported by

Peter Jones You might have thought that a "film soundtrack" would constrain the form of a Darkroom album. Here, however, the film maker took Darkroom's music to back the film, so whilst there's some remastering and newly released material, it's definitely Darkroom doing their thing, along with friends. Favorite track: grey skies acting.

Cristiano Mazzolini A wonderful example of their music.
I love this music, I love their works.
Cristiano Favorite track: two (from fallout 3).

about

Music by Darkroom chosen by filmmaker Chris Marsh for his sci-fi short Rhombus. Centred around recordings from the 2013 London Loopfest, it also features tracks produced in collaboration with Flamencamericana guitarist Daryl Shawn, alongside remastered cuts from the ‘Fallout’ live trilogy. The film is currently doing well on the festival circuit, winning ‘Best Experimental Film’ at the Bottle Cap Film Festival (UK) and receiving a nomination for Best Experimental at the Artemis International Film Festival (Turkey), to date.

A career-spanning overview of the darker ambient side of Darkroom.

about

Darkroom UK

Guitar but not guitar; synthesizers but not keyboards – Darkroom’s music starts with improvisation and a distinctive approach to sound design, followed by disciplined editing and stop-motion studio craft. By turns beautiful and beautifully ugly, theirs is a very human music that always sounds ‘played’ not ‘programmed’, despite the essential technology. ... more

The Last Sense To Fade
by Darkroom

supported by 13 fans who also own “Rhombus (Film Soundtrack)”

Another superb release from this highly underrated unit. The duo's mastery of electronics perfectly compliments the very human elements of guitar and woodwind often found at the centre of their compelling music. This release, beautifully packaged, sits among their finest work and is sure to be appreciated by anyone with an interest in ambient, drone, electronica and the chilliest fringes of techno.
