The official soundtrack album for Lionsgate’s newest film Cobweb has been released.
Lionsgate Records announces the release of Cobweb (Original Motion Picture Score) with music by Drum & Lace, aka Sofia degli Alessandri-Hultquist. The 36-track album is available today, July 21, to stream on digital platforms here. The film is available in theaters now.
The instrumentation is very heavy on string ensemble and string effects, as well as synths. The strings were recorded in Macedonia with FAMES’ 40-string ensemble. Synths were used throughout as percussive elements and drones. One synth, a low wavering subby analog bass, is featured prominently throughout the score in very specific scenes and was meant to be a hypnotic and terrifying element to the score.
“Before starting to compose, I had cellist Ro Rowan over to record some cello effects to pepper throughout the cues. Composer and multi-instrumentalist Jon Natchez also recorded some heavy and big saxophone swells, which you can hear all over the score. These were greatly manipulated and lent themselves well to the second half of the score,” says Hultquist.
In Cobweb, eight-year-old Peter is plagued by a mysterious, constant tap, tap from inside his bedroom wall — a tapping that his parents insist is all in his imagination. As Peter’s fear intensifies, he believes that his parents (Lizzy Caplan and Antony Starr) could be hiding a terrible, dangerous secret and questions their trust. And for a child, what could be more frightening than that?
