• Karen O And The Kids
    6 replies, posted
Karen O, from the Yeah Yeah Yeahs got together with an relatively untrained choir of kids to make the soundtrack to the film "Where The Wild Things Are". I think it sounds lovely although if you didn't like the Yeah Yeah Yeahs then you probably won't like this. Personally I think it's very calming and optimistic music :) From another site - "Other artists that feature in the band include: "YYYs bandmates Brian Chase and Nick Zinner along with Tristan Bechet (Services), Bradford Cox (Deerhunter), Dean Fertita (Queens of the Stone Age, The Dead Weather, The Raconteurs), Aaron Hemphill (Liars), Greg Kurstin (The Bird and the Bee), Jack Lawrence (The Dead Weather, The Raconteurs, The Greenhornes), Oscar Michel (Gris Gris), Imaad Wasif (New Folk Implosion, Alaska)"" Quote from Karen O - “I got involved because of Spike [Jonze]...I guess there is a childlike innocence about my music or my persona that he always just kind of dialed into. To play on it and it was a really amazing experience and I think what he has accomplished with the film is basically the impossible. There’s a lot of stuff that they told me Spike couldn’t do that he did it anyway and it was a really inspiring and exciting thing to be a part of.” Here are some songs: Igloo [MEDIA]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ySUthGfpWUk[/MEDIA] All is love [MEDIA]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jTtddTpl4m8&feature=related[/MEDIA] Worried Shoes [MEDIA]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yQMcA0Q4T6c&feature=related[/MEDIA] I like the "child like" feel of it all and it can imagine it going really well with the movie and I hope they make some more songs although I doubt they will :(
