CASIOTONE FOR THE PAINFULLY ALONE- Town Topic EP tom122
This is the soundtrack to artist and photographer Laurel Nakadate's debut feature film, STAY THE SAME NEVER CHANGE. It consists of thirteen short instrumental pieces, book-ended by two vocal tracks. Different versions of some of the instrumental tracks have been released elsewhere, but were re-constructed and blended with a number of new pieces to create a cohesive score specifically for the film. Built from the sounds of electric pianos, organs, Casio keyboards, a primitive monophonic sequencer/drum machine, and loads of spring reverb, this music parallels the stories of trouble-making Kansas City teenagers during a sweltering Midwestern summer.
