Eric Andre has conquered TV, film, comedy, and now has taken on the role of BLARF once again for his newest album. ‘Film Scores for Films That Don’t Exist’ is Andres newest venture of handling an orchestra while they make the music for movies that aren’t real, yet.
If Ennio Morricone conducted performances of his score for The Good, the Bad and the Ugly using a stick of dynamite instead of a baton, it might sound something like this record. Film Scores for Films That Don’t Exist is a work of outsider art by an OG provocateur, where the symphony meets the mosh pit – an album for people who love both Vangelis’ iconic Blade Runner score and pie-throwing shenanigans,
When Eric smashes a piano before setting it on fire, is he playing a prank or paying homage to burning piano players like avant-garde composer Annea Lockwood and free jazz musician Yōsuke Yamashita? After all, Eric attended the prestigious Berklee School of Music, where he specialized in standing bass. He enlisted full orchestras to record Film Scores for Films That Don’t Exist in Los Angeles and Budapest, collaborating with co-writer and co-producer Prateek Rajagopal. He also likes to make strangers drink ranch.
Listen to Film Scores for Films That Don’t Exist above, and stay tuned for more BLARF updates soon.
