DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION
Prisoners (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) is the soundtrack album to the 2013 film Prisoners, directed by Denis Villeneuve and featuring a musical score composed by Jóhann Jóhannsson. The album was released through WaterTower Music and ASG Records on September 16, 2013.
According to Jóhannsson, the role of the film's music was not only to create tension, but also to create "a kind of poetic and lyrical counterpoint to the horror of the events depicted in the film". He added that, "while the action is terrifying and horrific, the music has this beauty and fragility and lyricism which, in a strange way, amplifies the effect the film has on you."
Jóhannsson recorded a session with experimental musician Erik Knive Skodvin in Berlin during the recording session and generated a collection of drones and soundscapes, which he used in the writing process. Skodovin's recording of unsettling layers in the soundscape was curated and layered with the drones and soundscapes. Jóhannsson did not want a pipe organ, in favor of an ethereal instrument without any religious association that a pipe organ has, hence, he layered the Cristal Baschet and Ondes Martenot to curate "floating, dream-like sound".

Plays great, looks super cool! This music (and movie) are deeply special to me, so glad you had this on vinyl!
This item came perfectly wrapped and sealed, helix sounds is an amazing seller and I would gladly buy from them again
For all fans, this is a must-buy. Especially hooked by the track Wind, which is the very first ending of the anime.
This album sounds as good and hits as hard as it did when it was released! Extra fun getting it from Helix Sounds, they always have the best stuff :)
The vinyl in great condition got here when expected and sounds amazing
fast service & quick response, Good+
I got this for my husband as a gift and he really loved it. Great sound and beautiful color. I’m so glad I got this vinyl.
Beautiful vinyl. Good price. Came packaged well.
Really happy with the vinyl box set. It was sent quickly, well packaged and made it to Australia unscathed 😊
Came exactly as described and in perfect condition, the best shipment service on vinyls I’ve ever had. Fast and accurate, I’ve had records ordered for almost a month with another store and these guys continually beat out all other stores for shipment. I just ordered again from them, highly recommend.
The album arrived well packaged, in impeccable condition. Love the service. Love this album!
Great shop, I can only recommend it.
