Xialolu Guo’s She, A Chinese, with an original score composed and played by John Parish has been on the festival circuit, winning The Golden Leopard (best film) at the Locarno Film Festival. Dreamboat Records is pleased to make the soundtrack available on CD and download.
The unmistakable musical signature of Parish runs throughout, fragile and powerful — pounding drums, banjos and drones. A must have for fans of the film, Xialolu Guo and especially fans of John Parish. The 13 Parish tracks sit delicately alongside punk-rock songs by Chinese bands Muma and Hang on the Box, and rounded off with an early track Fiest. At times melancholic, this soundtrack mirrors the film by telling stories of leaving and longing.
All tracks by John Parish except where noted.
