Fans of Wes Andersen's stupendous film, The Life Aquatic with SteveZissou, will have heard music by Sven Libaek, probably without
knowing it. Libaek's seventies film score music--heard in a number of real
sea-based films--is overshadowed by the Portugese language covers of the David
Bowie catalog and new incidental music by Mark Mothersbaugh. "Open Sea
Theme" is the most prominent piece in the film.
Libaek's mostly excellent and highly distinctive soundtracks
have trickled down to the blog-o-sphere where they can be had for naught.
Seriously, in about an hour you can track 'em all down.
Here,
Yani Martinelli and Bert cover a Libaek piece, "Go Anywhere" from the
1973 film, Nickel Queen.
