Claire Denis Film Scores 1996-2009

Constellation Records will be releasing a very special 5 CD/5 LP box set compiling all of the soundtracks that members of Tindersticks have created for the films of French director Claire Denis over the past 15 years. The set gathers all six of the Claire Denis soundtracks written and performed by Tindersticks or their members; Stuart A. Staples (for L’Intrus) and Dickon Hinchliffe (for Vendredi Soir), alongside four others credited to the full band. Four of the six soundtracks are previously unreleased, including the score for her most recent and hugely acclaimed White Material, which has also received Criterion treatment.

The CD and LP sets each come in a slipcase box made from deluxe uncoated black paperboard with a custom die- cut window and metallic cover-print. Discs are housed in printed sleeves, each of which features an iconic image from the corresponding film that can interact with the window-cut box. Also included is a 48 page perfect-bound booklet of color film stills and an essay (in English and in French translation) by renowned music writer Michael Hill.

Tindersticks’ Claire Denis Film Scores 1996-2009 is out April 26, 2011 on Constellation Records. Tindersticks will perform a live score retrospective with Claire Denis film projections at the SF Film Fest this May. Details to be announced in the coming weeks.
