#nowspinning | Stanley Kubrick's Clockwork Orange - Music From The Soundtrack

in clockworkorange •  7 years ago 


This is a fantastic score, featuring classics by Elgar, Beethoven and Rossini. It's most significant though for it's use of synthesisers to recreate versions of classical music, including use of a vocoder. Wendy Carlos (then Walter), was previously famous for her Switched on Bach albums, which featured more classical music performed on Moog modular synthesisers. We can thank Wendy for helping bring both synthesisers and classical music into contemporary popular culture.

Very nice! i love classic! keep follow you!

The start of this movie soundtrack sends shivers down my legs, in fact i'm shivering now just thinking about it!

I think the blending of synthesisers and classical music just gives it that otherworldly feeling from the start, putting you in an unfamiliar place. And it's obviously a very dark film too...
