The Music of John Carpenter: Lost Themes II (2016)

We're back to discuss another collection of John Carpenter's
original musical compositions, the 2016 Sacred Bones release
Lost Themes II. Like the first Lost
Themes album, this one features songs that aren't tied to any
of Carpenter's film projects -- though anyone who loves his
film-scoring work will likely find a lot to love across these 11
tunes. Chris and Nick break the album down track-by-track,
discussing Carpenter's composing, instrumentation, and influences
-- and considering the amazing unmade films that this very
cinematic music might have soundtracked. Plus, what we're
currently watching on Shudder and what we have planned for the
Halloween season ahead!
