Jordan Peele and Michael Abels deliver an interactive soundtrack on vinyl.

So Peele’s second horror masterwork was titled ‘Us‘. When the film came out earlier this year. Indeed it broke box office records with the largest debut ever for an original horror film. After all, Us is the follow up to his oscar-winning film ‘Get Out‘. In any case, Michael Abels set the tone for both films by creating the score. Hence now we have the Us soundtrack arriving in a new “interactive” vinyl package.

Firstly the song “Anthem” features a 30 person choir. Specifically, a third of them being children. Then Abels also used a number of instruments. Especially a virtual one. So it was called the Propanium drum. To illustrate Abel said: “It makes this trashy metal sound, but you can also play melodies on it.” “The Propanium drum has a sound that’s both otherworldly but not electronic or like science fiction. It’s a sound you can’t quite put your finger on, which is why it works well in this film.”
