 Dead Man is the soundtrack to the 1995 Jim Jarmusch western-themed film of the same name starring Gary Farmer and Johnny Depp as William Blake. Neil Young recorded the soundtrack by improvising (mostly on his electric guitar, with some acoustic guitar, piano and organ) as he watched the newly edited film alone in a recording studio. The soundtrack album consists of seven instrumental tracks by Young, with dialog excerpts from the film and Johnny Depp reading the poetry of William Blake interspersed between the music. The version of the main theme used over the film's beginning and end credits is not included, but was released as a promo single.

Undisputable masterpiece by hard-working duo of Emir Kustiruca and composer Goran Bregovic. I would also point out Iggy Pop's tracks that are just marvelous in this very movie. The movie however is a matter of many disputes, but if they still talk about it means that they paid attention, isn't it? ) Gypsy Reggae and Death are a must to have in your collection anyway!!

Ghost in the Shell OST


Ghost in the Shell (1995)
 Originally titled: "Kôkaku kidôtai"
 Runtime: 82 min
 Country: Japan/UK
 Genre: Animation, Sci-Fi, Action, Thriller

Ghost in the Shell mp3  soundtrack

 2 Ghosthack
 3 Puppetmaster
 4 Virtual crime
 5 Ghost city
 6 Access
 7 Njghtstalker
 8 Floating museum
 9 Ghostdive
 10 Reincarnation

Just another masterpiece I would say!! This is for the first time I saw something that is really cyber-pank, the one we know thanks to Gibson. Not that the master contributed to this very animation film himself, but his presence is evident. I will never tell you the plot or the storyline. That is purely because I do not what to spoil your appetite! Watch and have your own oppinion.

As for music - that is just perfect! To my mind sountrack really matters here, as it is quite an uneasy task to have music in a movie which genre can be described as a mixture of thriller, sci-fi, drama and bone-crushing action!
