more eaze x 'Nadja'
A dreamy arthouse vampire film from the early nineties—produced by David Lynch—receives a brand-new live score by ambient pop's rising star, more eaze. Drawing inspiration from Dracula's Daughter (1936) and André Breton's surrealist novel Nadja (1928), director Michael Almereyda's acclaimed cult film follows the enigmatic vampire Nadja (Elina Löwensohn) as she returns to New York City to avenge her father Dracula's death at the hands of Dr. Van Helsing, played by sixties screen icon Peter Fonda.
Laryssa Kim x 'Outrage'
In Outrage director Ida Lupino tackles a sexual assault and its aftermath in a—for the time—groundbreaking and taboo shattering way. This underseen and devastatingly beautiful noir gets a brand new score by composer and electronic artist Laryssa Kim.
Yu Su x 'Life Is Cheap… But Toilet Paper Is Expensive'
Experience one of Wayne Wang’s (The Joy Luck Club, Smoke, Blue in the Face) early masterpieces with a brand new electronic score by producer & DJ Yu Su. Exploding a seemingly simple premise – a nameless “cowboy” courier (Spencer Nakasako) arrives in pre-Handover Hong Kong to deliver a mysterious briefcase to a mercurial Mob boss whilst becoming entangled with his femme fatale mistress (Cora Miao) – independent filmmaking legend Wayne Wang’s Life Is Cheap… But Toilet Paper Is Expensive barrels through inspired genre deconstruction, guerrilla docu-fiction and fierce political jeremiad, all with a keen sense of humor and one of the richest visual palettes of the 1990s.
Filip Wauters x 'Dead Man'
For many cinephiles, Dead Man is director Jim Jarmusch's crowning achievement; a spiritual and poetic Western that radically turns the genre inside out. Especially for Videodroom, Ghent-based guitarist Filip Wauters transforms Dead Man’s iconic guitar soundtrack (by the one and only Neil Young) into a spellbinding steel guitar performance.
