Exotic, Alien Sounds Drive The ‘Limetown’ Soundtrack in This Exclusive Premiere
Cinemacy is excited to premiere the six-minute track "SLVA," composed by music producer and multi-instrumentalist Ronit Kirchman.
The Facebook Watch phenomenon Limetown, starring Jessica Biel as an investigative journalist, is a fictionalization of a true-life podcast that has had audiences hooked since it’s premiere in mid-October 2019.
The 10-episode series follows Lia Haddock (Biel) as she unravels the mystery behind the disappearance of over 300 people at a neuroscience research facility in Limetown, Tennessee. Adapted from the podcast of the same name by Zack Akers and Skip Bronkie, who also serve as executive producers on the series, Limetown is a captivating drama for fans of mystery and innovative, genre-blurring adventurousness.
Cinemacy is excited to exclusively premiere the six-minute track “SLVA,” composed by music producer, songwriter, singer, and multi-instrumentalist Ronit Kirchman (The Sinner, Now You See Me). In this sneak peek, we get a taste of Kirchman’s exotic, even alien sounds from various electronics and 7-string violins.
Kirchman explains, “Even though Limetown plays as a thriller, it also creates a believable reality similar to ours with all of the complexity one might find – love, gentleness, curiosity, and hope, as well as dissociation, horror, dread, and menace. It comes to life through nuanced and powerful performances from Jessica Biel, Stanley Tucci… and many others. When I was asked to join the Limetown team, it was an easy ‘yes.’”
“Limetown is filled with resonant themes that I loved working with as a composer. What happens to empathy as we humans continue to push the boundaries of technology? What happens to cruelty? The technology amplifies all of our core human struggles. In certain places, the score quite literally represents the imagined sonic measurements of human and animal emotion. The ambitious scope of Limetown’s ideas allowed me to incorporate a wide musical palette, ranging from machine sounds and modulations to heartfelt melody, to the sounds of the orchestra unleashed in a new way. I hope that the score provides you with a sonic journey through all of the fascinating and often disturbing spaces of Limetown.”
The full 34-song album will be released by Lakeshore Records this Friday, December 6th.
