Hear the first track from his Mandy original soundtrack
Icelandic composer Jóhann Jóhannsson’s final score will be released on vinyl, this autumn via Lakeshore/Invada.
Listen next: VF Mix 100 by Ryuichi Sakamoto
Mandy stars Nicholas Cage as a man who hunts down a cult responsible for the death of his wife.
“Jóhann went above and beyond, and I suspect to the limits of his sanity, to make the music for this movie,” Cosmatos shares.
“His words and his actions made him more than a great collaborator, they made him like a brother to me. I’m sad our time together was so brief but I’m very proud of what he accomplished on Mandy and I believe he was too.”
Jóhannsson died in February at the age of 48. In March, his debut album Englabörn received a posthumous reissue, alongside a collection of new remixes.
