creates Expanded Version of Original “Monster” Film
Score
DTS Entertainment Release CD/DVD Including 5.1 Surround Music From
and Inspired By Critically Acclaimed Motion Picture Hollywood,
CA – March 11, 2004 - "The street date for the
BT-Monster CD/DVD double disc set has been postponed
until June, to parallel an aggressive marketing
roll-out of the studio's DVD-Video of this
critically-acclaimed motion picture starring Academy
Award winner for Best Actress, Charlize Theron and Christina
Ricci. Blending
Americana-inspired melodic sensibilities and non-traditional
instrumentation, BT conceived and recorded the entire
original score for Monster 5.1 surround sound. This double
disc package offers both a stereo CD of original music
evolved from BT’s score, as well as a “bonus” DVD with
over two hours of original BT compositions presented in DTS
5.1 surround sound, plus numerous exclusive audio/video
extras:
· Monster Remix Contest with remix parts from BT’s original “Ferris Wheel (Love Theme)” sessions and Ableton’s LIVE sequencing software from M-Audio
Initially
known as a pioneer of trance music, BT has arrived as one of
the most cutting edge artists and composers for a multitude
of musical styles. His impressive career began with training
in classical music and an education from the Berklee College
of Music, lending him the ability to direct 80-piece
orchestras for film projects. Highly regarded as a film
composer, BT has scored such blockbusters hits as The Fast
and The Furious, Under Suspicion, Go, and Driven. He is also
recognized for producing artists such as *NSYNC and Britney
Spears, remixing Madonna, Lenny Kravitz, Korn and Seal, and
working with Sting and Peter Gabriel. In 2003, he released
his fourth full length release, Emotional Technology (Nettwerk
America), featuring the hugely successful radio single,
“Simply Being Loved (Somnambulist).” About “Monster” Monster
was written and directed by first-timer Patty Jenkins and
co-produced by Charlize Theron, the film is based on the
true story of Aileen Wuornos. Wuornos was convicted of the
murders of seven men in Florida and executed in 2002 after
12 years on death row. Jenkins unearths a love story in the
midst of the horrors and pathologies of two misfits: Wuornos,
a prostitute deemed by the media as the first “female
serial-killer” a monster and Selby Ward (Ricci). The two
meet and fall in love just as Wuornos was nearing suicidal
despair. Selby becomes the first person in Wuornos’ tragic
existence to value her as a human being. Theron won an
Academy Award for Best Actress for her role as Wuornos. About DTS
