A Beautiful Now [Original Motion Picture Soundtrack]

by Johnny Jewel

Overview

Johnny Jewel's soundtrack to Daniela Amavia's independent drama A Beautiful Now essentially functions as a sampler of the Italians Do It Better label. While Jewel himself contributes two tense instrumentals, much of the program consists of previously released songs or alternate versions by Chromatics, Desire, and Glass Candy. Of the Chromatics tracks, there's a drumless version of "Kill for Love," an eight-track version of "Shadow," and a few other selections from Night Drive, Kill for Love, and the Shadow EP, all of which seem cool, icy, detached, and minimalist. The Glass Candy and Desire tracks are a bit more energetic and catchy, and closer to being danceable. The album isn't heavy on rarities, but as with any IDIB release, it's notable for its style and presentation, and how it establishes and sticks to a specific mood. ~ Paul Simpson
