If you're a techno head you've no doubt noticed the hype around Berlin's more introspective existentialist answer to 'Human Traffic' in 'Berlin Calling' starring none other than BPitch's Paul Kalkbrenner who, surprisingly enough, provides the soundtrack too. Kalkbrenner has long been a mainstay fixture of the BPitch label, with a style incorporating electronica enhanced techno with a widescreen melodic touch, kinda like a more melancholy Modeselektor without the hiphop influence. His soundtrack for the film is suitably cinematic and full of tempered trance moments loaded with emotional rushes and wistfully melodic touches comparable to the finer points of the Kompakt catalogue like The Field or Closer Musik. The one thing that separates this from most film soundtracks is the steady pulse of 4/4 techno running throughout the soundtrack, which was of course completely neccessary when basing a film around a city that lives, breathes and eats on a 120-130bpm throb. Having not seen the film yet myself I can only imagine that the Moby-ish 'Sky and Sand' with an emotionally strained blues vocal from his bruv Fritz Kalkbrenner, must be set to a particularly poignant scene featuring them chomping little fellas on the hill at Gorlitzer park or something, but cynicism aside this has a lot of potential to appeal to an indie audience dabbling with the synaptic rush of chemical music. Fellow BPitch head Sascha Funke contributes the only non Kalkbrenner cut on 'Mango' with a suitably moody soft trancer, entirely in keeping with the equilibrium of the rest of the soundtrack. Go watch the film and then get your rave slippers on to this.Decided to upload this in 720p since the movie is simply great!Release Date: 2009/12/12 Video Bitrate: X264@ 5074K Audio Bitrate: AC3 640K Frame Rate: 24.000 Fps Resolution: 1280 x688 Running Time: 110Mins Language.........German Substitle.........English You must register before you can view this text.
