ASH - OMPS

Flying Lotus is pleased to announce the release of ASH (ORIGINAL MOTION PICTURE SOUNDTRACK) featuring the single “It’s Out There.” Digital album available now  the soundtrack features music written by Flying Lotus for his visionary new directorial project, a sci-fi horror thriller, starring Eiza González and Aaron Paul. An unpredictable, tension-filled story of survival on an alien planet, ASH required a soundscape as otherworldly and expansive as its setting, prompting Flying Lotus to draw inspiration from synth score pioneers like John Carpenter and Vangelis. Anchored by atmospheric, layered synthwork, pulsating rhythms and industrial sci-fi textures, the 27-track collection is a captivating sonic companion to the onscreen story, fully immersing viewers into the alien world of Ash. Following its worldwide premiere at SXSW earlier this month, ASH will be available in theaters nationwide this Friday, March 21 from RLJE Films and Shudder.

The score was originally introduced with lead single “OXYGENE,” its darkly propulsive rhythms and synths coalescing into a foreboding and hypnotic opener to the album. Featuring during one of the film’s key scenes, meanwhile, is “IT’S OUT THERE,” a haunting, electronic slowburn of throbbing synths that dials up the sense of dread as the story intensifies. Also included on the album are features from a variety of artists – experimental producer Little Snake joins Flying Lotus for unsettling industrial cue “CONFRONTED,” while producer, composer and sound designer Kuedo contributes the lushly orchestral “WHAT’S WRONG PEACH?” featuring violinist Miguel Atwood-Ferguson. The album concludes with “OBEY,” an original vocal track and the film’s end credits theme featuring singer-songwriter Niki Randa.
