Description
Since the release of Lost Themes II in 2016, a lot has changed in the musical journey of the famous composer and director John Carpenter. After that album, he embarked on his first concert tour, presenting music from the Lost Themes series and his classic film scores. In 2017, he re - recorded many classic movie themes for the Anthology album, collaborating with his son Cody Carpenter and godson Daniel Davies. The next year, he was invited to executive produce and compose the music for the new Halloween movie by David Gordon Green, which quickly became the highest - grossing in the series. Now, after nearly five years, he's back with his first non - soundtrack album, Lost Themes III: Alive After Death. Carpenter's musical comeback is powered by his collaboration with Cody and Daniel. They've worked together as a trio on studio albums, soundtracks, and on stage. In this new album, they achieve a greater creative synergy. The interplay between Davies's guitar and the Carpenters' dueling synthesizers builds vivid musical worlds. John describes their creative process as starting with a catchy theme, bass line, or pad, and then adding layers. They've learned to understand each other's skills and communicate wordlessly, making the process smoother than before. While the first Lost Themes album was a delightful surprise after Carpenter's quiet years, this third installment shows him at the peak of his resurgence. The 2018 Halloween score brought his music to a large audience, and the release of this new album finally gives him the recognition he deserves as a pioneer of modern electronic music.
