From Movie Music International:
Following Aurora and Nightshift, MSM once again treat us to a gorgeous release as they team up with director Yam Laranas and composer Oscar Fogelström on the release of the score for their latest collaboration, Death of a Girlfriend. The film tells the story of Alonzo (Diego Loyzaga) and Christine (AJ Raval) who fall in love with each other during their walks in the forest. However, the appearance of an elderly farmer and an obsessed warden lead to a tragedy with a Rashomon-inspired investigation as each participant has his own version to explain what happened to Christine in the woods… The score although dramatic in all the right places is also luxuriously theme led, with the composer creating rich and vibrant musical passages throughout the scores duration, it’s a score that will I know be of interest to many and is a fusion of both the conventional instrumentation and the electronic. Like the previous score there are so many great cues within it that it something that demands the listener continues to sample its delights without reaching for the skip or fast forward button. It is darkly foreboding in places and also has to it an apprehensive yet romantic air. Again this for me is an essential addition to the collection.

The Hypnotist eligible for the 63rd Grammy Awards
FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION
I am happy to announce that the soundtrack album for the motion picture "The Hypnotist" is eligible for the 63rd GRAMMY awards. For all voting members: Please consider voting for the soundtrack album "The Hypnotist" and the track ”Ball & Chain”.
This is special to me, since The Hypnotist was the first ”real” feature film I scored, and I am so happy that Lakeshore Records with Brian McNelis, Eric Craig et al believed in this album and wanted to release it. And it makes me even more happy that they also wanted to submit it to the GRAMMYs.
I also want to thank everyone involved with the movie "The Hypnotist"; director Lasse Hallström, the producers inc Börje Hansson, the entire cast and crew, also notably Geoff Foster who went above and beyond my every expectation when he recorded and mixed the score. But also: London Chamber Orchestra, Matt Dunkley and Tony Blondal, Alastair King, Gareth Griffiths, Cool Music Ltd, Michael Blair, Mårten Sahlin, Björn Engelmann and of course Niki & The Dove!
