Soundrack

[mentos_007]

I need your help. I'm making a movie. Actually.. I'm editing a film taken by my father in Alps. This is an 11 minutes film, with landscapes only (huge mountains covered with snow). But I need a soundrack. I want to add something acoustic, interesting... any recommendations??
What would you like to hear during watching winter landscapes??

you mean sound TRACK?

I don't really know much accoustic music. The only thing I could suggest would be more electronic stuff...but not "rave music". I'm talking Boards of Canada type stuff.

Gustav Holst's "Planets", and from those "Jupiter - Bringer of Jollity", the middle part. (Even though I imagine landscapes that usually woodsac photographs for us with that music, but impressive mountain ranges sound ok for it, too). Listen to it and you will hear which part I am thinking of ... though for 11 minutes of film you might need all of it :scratch: ?

Yea Boards of Canada, is a good one for this. Also i would recomend Biosphere or Brian Eno....but again its not really accoustic music, but goes very well with landscapes. For more accoustic stuff i would recomend Craig Armstrong which i'v used in a short film myself (he's the same guy that did the soundtrack to romeo & Juliet) and he's awsome. Other than that, what reminds me of mountains when i hear it is, Goldfrapp's first album (Felt Mountain).... and alot of Bjorks more experimental stuff. Hope this helps

Boards of Canada would be fantastic. I love those guys.

Yes they are from scotland. The two of them were inspired by the canadian film boards wildlife documentaries when they were young , hence there name. Think they smoked too much aswell...lol.

If i'd continued my list, the next one would have been sigur ros also..... I mean how can you not consider them for a soundtrack!
