A helicopter shot zooms in on Julie Andrews atop a Swiss alp as she spins around and opens her mouth – but you will not hear her dulcet tones warbling in this book. She will remain in
a freeze-frame while you hear strange sounds, unearthly voices and unreal music.
The supersonic body popping in Hype Williams video clips. The jazz portraits of junkies and hipsters by Elmer Bernstein. The many voices of the cinematised Beethoven. The radical folk
connections between Adam Faith and Toru Takemitsu. The global ring of music on the film soundtrack. The euphoric strains of movie music in your local supermarket. The psychotic
orchestration of Fritz Lang’s sound with music. The phantom surround-sound design of Randy Thom. The location recordings of Francois Musy for Jean Luc Godard. The movie music sampling
performances of David Shea.
