Description
The Omega Productions Records is proud to present you for the first time on vinyl the Martyrs (2008) original motion picture soundtrack, composed by the french duo Seppuku Paradigm (Alex and Willie Cortés). Directed in 2008 by Pascal Laugier (ten years before his last film, Incident in a Ghostland), Martyrs is undoubtedly the most controversial French horror film of his decade. Beyond the symbolism of its purpose or the hyperrealism of its special effects, the footage is only the representation of a love between two friends, within an increasingly dehumanized society. The music composed by the Cortés brothers results from the vision of its director, sometimes cold and austere, sometimes organic and even melancholy. Thought more by its creators as a concept album rather than a simple sound illustration, the soundtrack ends with the famous title Your Witness , with pop-Floydian accents. The song My Neighborhood by composer Goldmund is also present for the first time. Second film by Pascal Laugier after Saint-Ange in 2004, Martyrs also represents the latest project of the make-up artist Benoît Lestang (The Living Dead Girl, The Revenge of the Living Dead or collaborator of Mylène Farmer for Sans contrefaçon, Giorgino and Q.I) to whom our label makes here tribute. Resulting from a close collaboration for over a year between brothers Cortés, Goldmund and The Omega Productions Records, this release contains the entire score on vinyl 150gr, housed inside a deluxe gatefold with real chrome derived from the cold aesthetic imagined by Pascal Laugier. Also including liner notes by Willie Cortés.
