Original soundtrack for Johannes Persson's Swedish horror feature "Feed" (2022).
ABOUT THE FILM
A #1 box-office hit starring Sofia Kappel, Joel Lützow and Molly Nutley, produced by Scandinavian Content Group and released in Sweden by Nordisk Film. A group of social media experts are hired to help an old family business thrive — but they soon find themselves stuck on a tiny island in a lake where an ancient Swedish witch is said to live.
ABOUT THE SCORE
Oscar on the score: "Feed was a super fun film to score! Since the schedule was tight, I had to start scoring early on, and the editors temped the film with the suites I provided. The score has two prominent themes: the main theme, heard in many cues beginning with 'The Island', is a melody that works in both lighter and darker sequences; Märit's theme represents the mythical witch haunting the island. The instrumentation is organic/electronic — the organic side being nyckelharpa and other traditional Swedish instruments, with live percussion by Jesper Skarin. Since the witch wears a mask with a bell, Jesper did a lot of metallic sounds, including bowed cymbals and different bells. There are also vocal elements — whispers and reversed vocal performances symbolizing the witch. I call this Electronic Folklore."
