About

Writer/director/composer John Carpenter is the auteur behind such b-movie classics as <i>Halloween</i>, <i>The Thing</i>, and <i>Big Trouble in Little China</i>. His "Halloween Theme" is one of the most recognizable pieces of music in cinema. While <i>Lost Themes</i> is the 67-year-old visionary's first studio album, fans of his work will find these songs instantly familiar. Carpenter's hallmarks are all here: screeching analog synths, ominous arpeggios, gaseous clouds of spooky noise. The harrowing "Obsidian" is a mini-movie in itself, and "Purgatory" gets especially weird with its live drums and hammered pianos. The remixes apply this sonic palette to various techno and dubstep beats.
