Canadian Composer, Leonard J. Paul just put The Beep Movie Soundtrack up for pre-order on bandcamp. The full soundtrack releases on September 16, 2016, and here’s what he had to say about the creation of the Beep Movie Soundtrack:
Nearly two years in the making, this 100+ minute soundtrack is a true labour of love to support the “Beep” movie (BeepMovie.com) by Karen Collins. It is my first film soundtrack since the release of the soundtrack of the “The Corporation” by Mark Achbar, which has become the highest-grossing Canadian documentary to this date.
The “Beep” soundtrack is likely the first feature length procedural music film score in history and most of the songs are entirely produced using the open source visual scripting language Pure Data. Each song uses mathematics to both create the sounds of all the instruments as well as improvise on my musical patterns to generate a different performance each time the song is played. Many thanks to cellist Peggy Lee for her heartfelt improvisations on several songs on the album. If you enjoy the music, please consider supporting the album with a purchase and by letting your friends know about the album. Many thanks to those who have supported us already.
-Leonard J. Paul
You can listen to the first fews track through the link below. I for one am very impressed with the groovy third preview track “Half Steppin’ – Freaky DNA”.
You can pre-order The Beep Movie Soundtrack on bandcamp for $7.99 CAD, which is about $6 USD. All pre-orders include immediate access to the 5 preview tracks. If you need some more Canadian content in your life (and who doesn’t) Leonard J. Paul has you covered.
The Beep Movie (Beep: A Documentary History of Game sound) will be released digitally, on DVD and Blu-ray on September 30, 2016 and can find links to pre-order it and the soundtrack on it’s official site here.
Are you excited for Beep?
