Some of these really do suck, but some I actually really like. The Death Cab Cover is awesome, and I also dig the Santogold. Deerhunter one ain't bad either.

Picture Shop

post_1575-450x264.jpg

When Quentin Leroux, writer and accomplished musician, meets Christophe Ménassier, writer, drummer and sound designer…

Wishing to gather their artistic sensitivity, experience and their own view of Music, they have the idea of creating a “cinematic” album, sort of a “two-voice” tribute to the Seventh Art. The aim is to suggest their music, and even to inspire a scene or a sequence to the image makers, directors and film writers…

More than one year of research, experiments, do-it-yourselfings and “live” sound recordings will be necessary to get that “original soundtrack” where each track is thought as a set, a theme… A modern music adapted to today’s motion pictures.

The two performers’ musical open-mindedness and their eclectic taste of cinema are drawn in this plural record.

PICTURE SHOP is utterly free of charge. It is available through online download.

The site is simple, yet stunning. The music is gorgeous. Quite an accomplishment.
