Scott Walker
The Childhood of a Leader Soundtrack (Indie Exclusive Colored Vinyl) Vinyl LP

Scott Walker’s orchestral soundtrack to The Childhood Of A Leader. Walker's first soundtrack work since his remarkable score for 1999's Pola X, is a key component of Brady Corbet's directorial debut. The tense psychological drama tracing the formative years of a young boy set against the backdrop of the 1919 Paris Peace Conference is brought to life through Walker's compositions. He worked with long-term collaborators Peter Walsh and Mark Warman, and an orchestra comprised of 46 string and 16 brass players. The resulting score is both haunting and hypnotic. Eighteen tracks in all. Released by 4AD on limited edition clear vinyl with a download code.
