'The Great Gatsby' soundtrack and the rich history of the rock star composer
11 May 2013 4:24 PM, PDT | EW.com - PopWatch | See recent EW.com - PopWatch news »
Much has been made of Jay-z’s involvement with Baz Lurhmann’s epic adaptation of The Great Gatsby. The music mogul has never before lent his name or his talents to a project in this way before (we’re not counting his “inspired by” American Gangster album). Despite the hype, this soundtrack collaboration is fundamentally safe (if seemingly off to a fast start on the charts.). Not only is The Great Gatsby a tent-pole blockbuster with an above-the-title director and major A-list talent, it’s a grandiose celebration of New York jazz age glamour and excess — which in some ways, »

The Effects of Music And Sound In David Fincher’s The Social Network
23 April 2013 8:33 AM, PDT | Obsessed with Film | See recent Obsessed with Film news »
David Fincher, an amazingly intuitive director, hired Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross to score the masterpiece that is The Social Network, and in doing so created a film that used music to compliment sound in a way that very few movies do nowadays. The union of music and sound in this movie is hauntingly dark and psychoanalytical, acting like the brainwaves channeling throughout the film, transporting us, the viewers, into the minds of secretly disturbed individuals stuck on a social trip through heaven and hell. The effects of sound and music is an aspect of film so integrated into our minds and our society that it is easy for us as a culture raised on movies to take them for granted. When The Social Network was first released one of the most notable elements of the film was its score, which revealed the rawness and the audacity of its approach »

John Cusack and Paul Dano Set to Play Brian Wilson for ‘Love & Mercy’
18 April 2013 8:00 AM, PDT | FilmSchoolRejects.com | See recent FilmSchoolRejects news »
Bill Pohlad‘s Love & Mercy is looking to start filming this summer, and it looks like they’ve got the biggest pieces of the puzzle all set. According to The Wrap, John Cusack is in talks to join the production, playing Beach Boy Brian Wilson in his mid-life years while Paul Dano plays the younger version of the iconic musician. With a script from Oren Moverman (The Messenger), the movie seeks to chronicle Wilson’s life from his 1960s success, through his public breakdown to his modern reemergence. And, really, he makes for a fascinating subject with a hell of a soundtrack on his hip, but the names behind Love & Mercy build up a lot of excitement. Pohlad was a producer on Into the Wild, The Tree of Life and The Runaways; Moverman has shown incredible emotional nuance in his scripts; Atticus Ross (The Social Network) is scoring the film; John Wells is also producing; and Wilson »

Why David Fincher Needs To Direct ‘Gone Girl’
8 April 2013 9:51 PM, PDT | Obsessed with Film | See recent Obsessed with Film news »
In 2012, Gillian Flynn struck gold with her third novel Gone Girl, another in a growing line of unique mysteries with Dark Places and Sharp Objects preceding. Why did Gone Girl really spike her name up to the top? The story is full of so many twists and questionable facades that it really acts as a successful revision on genre mystery novels. That, or does the cover look similar enough to Fifty Shades of Grey that people have just kind of mentally connected the two?
While I have to admit the latter is somewhat true, it is the book itself that strongly merits critical favor. Flynn’s sense of perspective is impeccable, shifting back and forth from different narrators with extreme tonal changes. Gone Girl picks up the day of Amy Elliott Dunne’s disappearance from her home in Carthage, Missouri. Her husband Nick is trying to piece together what may have happened, »

How To Destroy Angels: 'Welcome Oblivion' – CD Review
8 March 2013 8:00 AM, PST | FEARnet | See recent FEARnet news »
Just last month, we were excited to learn that industrial rock icon Trent Reznor will be re-assembling his legendary band Nine Inch Nails with an all-new lineup and a tour kicking off this summer. But that's not the only Trent event this year: this week, the experimental band How to Destroy Angels – a project Reznor founded with his wife Mariqueen Maandig, his fellow Golden Globe-winning composer Atticus Ross, and acclaimed visual artist Rob Sheridan – finally released their long-awaited full length album debut. After teasing us for two years with singles, EPs (the first self-titled release in 2010, followed by An Omen last fall) and some beautifully spooky music videos, they've made good on the ominous promise of those earlier experiments with a truly monolithic record that is equal parts ambient experimentation (in the vein of Nin's epic 1999 album The Fragile or their instrumental collection Ghosts I-iv) and dark, sultry electro-pop.

Trent Reznor Announces The Return of Nine Inch Nails
25 February 2013 4:48 PM, PST | Obsessed with Film | See recent Obsessed with Film news »
“I’ve been thinking for some time now it’s time to make Nin disappear for a while.”
So went Trent Reznor’s musings in early 2009 that announced the indefinite hiatus of Nine Inch Nails. Now, as music fans know ‘indefinite’ is often a lot more definite than most artists are wishing to let on – or admit to. So, with that announcement in mind a general feeling that this was not a hiatus but in fact the end fell upon most Nine Inch Nails fans, and was the general consensus of the music press and the music scene.
As Reznor went onto clarify, he would still be creating music but branching out beyond the Nine Inch Nails moniker, and whilst he was saying he’d never say never to producing music as Nine Inch Nails he saw no future for the band as a live entity for the foreseeable future. »

'Midnight In Paris,' 'The Hunger Games' & 'The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo' Pick Up Grammy Awards
11 February 2013 8:19 AM, PST | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »
If you wanted awards coverage, this past weekend was a goldmine. Not only were the BAFTAs handed out, so too were the Asc awards. And last night, there was this little thing called Grammys. Yes, the annual celebration of all things in mainstream music was celebrated, but in among the winners were a few items of note to movie fans. The eligibility window for the music awards are a bit wonky, so while all these movies are more than a year old, they're only picking up honors now. After bagging an Oscar for their work on "The Social Network," Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross took a Grammy for their equally compelling work on "The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo." The pulsating, coldly creeping score is a winner, so we have no problem with that. Nor do we see anything wrong with the lively songs for "Midnight In Paris" winning Best Soundtrack Compilation. »

How To Destroy Angels, the musical collective featuring Nine Inch Nails frontman Trent Reznor, Reznor’s wife and vocalist Mariqueen Maandig, art director Rob Sheridan and Atticus Ross (Reznor’s co-composer on The Social Network and The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo), have premiered a new short film music video for “How Long” a track off of their upcoming debut full length, Welcome Oblivion (they had previously released a very solid self titled Ep back in 2010).
The video was directed by Shynola, (a london-based group known for doing videos for Radiohead, U.N.K.L.E, and the title sequence for Edgar Wright’s Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World. ) and features a dystopian-like future in which men hunt each other.

Trent Reznor's How To Destroy Angels Debut Chilling New Video
1 February 2013 1:30 PM, PST | FEARnet | See recent FEARnet news »
We've been looking forward to more output from How To Destroy Angels, the dark electronic band formed by Nine Inch Nails founder Trent Reznor, his wife and vocalist Mariqueen Maandig, art director Rob Sheridan and Trent's fellow Golden Globe-winning composer Atticus Ross. The band's first video “The Space In Between” made our list for 2010's creepiest music video, their Ep An Omen made last year's Top Albums list, and today it looks like they're gunning for a spot on our 2013 list with their latest effort. “How Long?” a new single from the band's long-delayed but much anticipated full-length album Welcome Oblivion, is accompanied by a visual scenario that's even darker than the double murder depicted in their debut clip. Directed by the London-based visual arts collective Shynola, the film depicts a glowing-eyed wanderer fighting a life-or-death struggle in a dystopian future.

Listen: Playlist Of Atticus Ross’ Soundtrack Inspirations For 'Broken City' Including David Bowie, Tangerine Dream, Mogwai & More
18 January 2013 3:00 PM, PST | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »
While we didn't think much of the actual movie, one reason soundtrack and score fans might want to check out "Broken City" is that it boasts brand new music from Atticus Ross, alongside past collaborators Claudia Sarne and Leopold Ross. The Oscar winner behind "The Social Network" score, which he co-wrote with Trent Reznor, has been steadily getting more cinema work, contributing to the team of talented musicians on the Mexican drama "Days Of Grace," and reteaming with Reznor on "The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo." But this time around, he's giving folks a bit of a peek into his creative process. The composer/musician has curated a music playlist exclusively for Rdio that delves into this inspirations, and it's pretty solid stuff.
