HOLE IN THE GROUND (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) CAT NUMBER: NO 12 RELEASE DATE - 8th September 2023 The Hole In The Ground (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) is bursting with rich treats from the imagination of Amon Tobin. A film in audio/visual excerpts, each track has its own short selected from the visual explorations of Tobin’s alter ego Shy1 and musically we are teased with beguiling and frightening hints at what the story of this place we see might be. It’s a collection of music and imagery playing with themes and deliberately incomplete narratives, inviting us to wonder; where is this place? What is the story of these characters? The viewer is left enough space for their own imagination to begin to fill in the gaps. It’s an enjoyably menacing process. The perpetual undulation between hope and fear coursing through each and every minute of the EP’s 6 tracks.
