Let's Get Killed
When Danny DeVito commissioned Irish producer David Holmes to provide the score for the filmOut of Sight, he chose wisely. Holmes's gritty, urban dance music, first exposed on the sadly underratedThe Film's Crap Let's Slash the Seats, is perfect for evoking scenes and atmospheres, yet it's interesting enough to stand on its own. For this album, Holmes and a friend wandered the streets of New York, collecting voices and noises; Holmes then assembled them into an imaginary soundtrack with the structures of modern dance music and the sonic qualities of rock and dub reggae.Let's Get Killedis a disjointed cut-up session that brings the grit and excitement of city life into your living room without leaving a drop of blood.--Matthew Corwine
