The trailer for the new James Whale Orchestra production of Alfred Hitchcock’s ‘Blackmail’, in collaboration with the Postland Collectief. I wrote a soundtrack inspired by Bernard Herrmann’s Vertigo soundtrack, 1920’s popular music, some contemporary sections and plenty of film noir jazz.
Postland are an extraordinary group of players – all technical wizards with a huge knowledge of extended techniques and styles – so I was able to write pretty much anything I wanted to :))
The premiere is at Leiden Film Festival on 13th November, and then the production goes to Almere, Nijmegen, Rotterdam, EYE Amsterdam, Den Haag and Utrecht.
