2ndの情報が無いままに3月ももうじき終わり・・・。
そんな中?ちょっと嬉しい話題。
日本でも先日公開が始まった話題の映画「Banksy Does New York」。
その中で「Keep In The Dark」が使用されているらしいんです。
面白そうだなーと思ってたので余計に嬉しい。
以下、Chris Moukarbel監督のインタビューより抜粋。
You’ve mentioned that Banksy chimed in at one point to give his blessing and input. What sort of feedback did you get?
A lot of them were notes about clarifying certain things. Not so much to give away his intentions; he never got into the meaning of anything. It was more about accuracy, which was helpful because no one had made a [larger] work about the whole residency. We were at the front line of that, so it was helpful to hear directly from him about certain things.
The only stylistic note that I got from him, which is kind of funny, was the opening title sequence song. For whatever reason, he chose that song and recommended it. I tried it and it worked really well. He really wanted to hear that song at the beginning, and I happened to really like the way it worked.
Was it the Temples track [“Keep In the Dark”] that Banksy suggested?
Yeah, exactly. He sent over the title and the artist, and I had to look it up. I was using a song with kind of a similar vibe. Originally I had a track from this band called The Make-Up, this D.C. punk band, and it had this kind of retro, mod sound to it. But the Temples song happened to work really well, and I was happy about that.
A lot of the music in the documentary is by !!!. What led to that decision?
I’ve always been a big fan of that band, anyway. Music is really important to me and to what I make, and you can tell from this movie that it drives a lot of the action. I wanted a rock and roll, New York sound to go through the whole movie, something with a big an old, New York house vibe. I kept talking with my friends about it—what is that sound? I kept thinking it would be something old, and then I just that record on that day. That record was from 2013. I wasn’t even looking for music for the film, but immediately, I felt that it was hitting all of those registers. I listened to song after song, and the whole album had this cohesive vision that was similar to what I was looking for.
