Wait. There was a SUBURBIA score, too?
 

I never realized the Youth scored SUBURBIA. I thought they just gave a few songs to the soundtrack. I can't believe a film score soundtrack was never released. Same with THINGS BEHIND THE SUN and THE HEART IS DECEITFUL. Hope that sndtrk box become a reality.

suburbia soundtrack is easily found on ebay for like 4$.
there's sunday (demo)
bee bee's song which I love much
tabla in suburbia (percussions based instrumental).

Yeah, Nic. I have that. BUT I read that in the film, SY composed a score (meaning an unreleased score). That's what I was inquiring about, sir.

aaaaah sorry.
seemed like a pretty simple question at first ha ha.

haha, flea.

HUH? Was Flea in SUBURBIA? I saw it sooooooooo many years ago.

I saw that movie once in my early teens and liked it, but god only knows what I'd make of it now in my mid 20's...


Also, Flea was in the 1984 film, Suburbia

Not the 1996 film, SubUrbia, which SY scored and the one I'm yakking about

i actually managed to get a copy of the THINGS BEHIND THE SUN score a few years ago (thru unnamed sources).... its a pity this thing can't be released. i am a big fan of the DEMON LOVER soundtrack also, but i dont even think that thing came out domestically.

I have THINGS BEHIND also. Chances are from same unnamed source. The THINGS one has some dialogue in the music, right? And all the tracks total like 20 mins of music?

DEMONLOVER is good stuff. But you're right, only a French release. Never understood why it wasn't released here (not even a modified Smells Like or Goofin' release).

Between all this, and their work on THE HEART IS DECEITFUL, really keeps me thinking that the sndtrk box is a serious possibility. I can't imagine so much output being ignored like that forever.

The THINGS soundtrack I have actually doesnt' have any dialogue... It does have some unreleased O'Rourke tracks that didn't make it into the movie either.

So is this a "fan-made" bootleg yr talking about? The copy I have is basically a fan ripped the music straight from the DVD (background dialogue and all).

naw....this is more of a studio source copy..

something i dont really feel comfortable passing around until who ever owns the damn thing gives it a chance for release.

i love that suburbia sdtk and demonlover may be my favorite SY album of all time. wasn't there some stuff from things behind the sun on the kali yug EP?

i know something showed up on one of the previous mixtapes...

that's not flea, even if he looks a like a somewhat "heftier" version of flea.
that's steve zahn

Suburbia, also known as Rebel Streets and The Wild Side, is a 1984 film written and directed by Penelope Spheeris about suburban punks who run away from home. The kids take up a minimalist, punk lifestyle by squatting in abandoned suburban tract homes. The punks are played by Chris Pedersen, Bill Coyne and Red Hot Chili Peppers' bassist Flea, amongst others.[1]

But!... there are two films called suburbia.

subUrbia is a 1996 dark comedy film based on the play subUrbia by Eric Bogosian and directed by Richard Linklater. The movie follows the relationships between a few young adults as they while away their time standing on "the corner" outside a local convenience store. The original soundtrack of the film was written and performed by Sonic Youth.

umm

I know you already said that, but I needed to wiki-paste it for everyone else to see.

.. :p

ah yes, i remember wanting to investigate this (years after seeing the film once.. shit, on a high school date, even) and somebody told me "oh the only SY score is just incidental slowed down bits of the sunday intro".. so who knows. would be worth (someone) watching again + taking note...

i know i posted soundclips of all the SY music in the 'things behind the sun' film (and was promptly asked to take it down), so that may be what's circulating. that was straight from the film, with dialog etc. what hiland is referring to is indeed the actual score for the film, like 15 full tracks, and no, it is (unfortunately) not from me! i too wish SY would release this stuff, 'magic air' in particular is so stupid it has to be heard (and there's some cool o'rourke folky shit, as well as stuff that appeared on kali yug, and several long variations on the title theme, 'stranger', etc).

so, who wants to watch suburbia again?

ha ha I wrote that post and forgot to hit "post reply" button, hours later I found the "reply to thread" window open and just automatically hit the post reply button.

^^^

all of this + the post postel with delay= another useless couple of posts by nicfit.

VHS + italian dubbing = torture.

I remember the slowed down bits of sunday riffs in the "oooh, this is a bit sad" parts.

Chris L... the THINGS BEHIND stuff I have is from you from like the week that the mustang disco went up... I didnt wanna blow up yr spot. Haha. Hiland is a lucky mofo. I really hope all that shiz gets the release it deserves. And speaking of KALI YUG, I just wanna say that "La Paysage Zim Zum" is soooo good.

yeah, i laugh in the face of copyright. until copyright gently takes me aside and says "you fucked up."

haha.
