Upcoming Release: Blow the Man Down (OST)

Dear World,

We have some exciting news to announce! Christmas comes right on time this year as Editions Verde will release the original motion picture soundtrack to the Amazon Studios 2020 film BLOW THE MAN DOWN on December 25 on CD and all major streaming platforms worldwide. The film — which is available for streaming via Amazon — came out in March and was co-scored by EV’s own Jordan Dykstra and his frequent collaborator Brian McOmber. Together the duo previously worked on IT COMES AT NIGHT (A24, 2017), HAIL SATAN? (Magnolia Pictures, 2019), the Emmy-winning 2-part Frontline documentary DOCUMENTING HATE (PBS, 2019), and finally Pitchfork’s #2 album of 2009 — Dirty Projector’s Bitte Orca (Domino Records). In addition to their own performing, for this project Dykstra and McOmber also employed the sounds of Malcom Parson (cello), Michael Pestel (flute), and Thollem McDonas (piano on tracks 11 and 20). The album was mixed by Ben Greenberg at Python Patrol and mastered by Alan Jones at Laminal Audio. Finally, as you can see on the cover art to the right, the 26-song soundtrack also features four sea shanties sung by David Coffin (and friends). Preview Coffin’s rendition the film’s title track, featured in the opening of the film, here.

For now,

Jordan

UPDATE (12/19): Please enjoy this album sampler!
