"LFO" the movie

Has anyone else seen the preview for “LFO”? I spy with my little eye (amongst quick edits) a few elektron boxes and an op1. Looks like a guy figures out how to control people’s minds with a special LFO (I’ve been doing that shit for years ;). Actually looks pretty decent.

I’d link to it but I’m heading out the door. Y’all are savy internetists though.

alright here it is…

Actually I have seen the entire movie twice. Is my friend Antonio Tublen who made it. So of course i am a bit biased when i say it is fantastic. :slight_smile:

Also maybe you already know but the entire soundtrack is made only with an Elektron Analog Four. Which is so awesome.

The movie will go on US itunes 28th of october and also other vod services. Hope you get the opportunity to enjoy it anytime soon.

Nice! Yeah, judging by the 2013 date on YouTube I had a feeling it had been released over seas a bit ago and finally has made it’s way to the US.

I had a feeling the soundtrack was Elektron heavy, but entirely the A4? Wow. Can’t wait to see it!

Hi,
I’m the guy who made the film and I made most of the score with my A4, but also used the Octatrack and the OP-1. But that was more or less it and that was all I needed :slight_smile:

Also, the film is out now in US, Canada, UK, Ireland and Sweden on VOD, DVD etc. If you want to support weird independent film about sound, please check it out! https://itunes.apple.com/movie/lfo/id926067598

There’s also a contest to win an OP-1:

So start your Elektron gear and make som weird music to it!

Some quotes about the film:
The Hollywood Reporter: the right comic frequency in this witty sci-fi thriller about a mad scientist and his weapons of mass disruption.
Twitch: “LFO is a diabolical joy to watch”
[color=black]Sight and Sound: ”wryly banalised, tone-perfect scenario”
Bloody Disgusting: ”Strange and Darkly Funny”
[color=black]Filmschool Rejects: ”a fun watch all leading up to a killer finale”
Ain’t it Cool News: "Full of quirk and dark comedy, LFO is a modern day tale of mad science"

Been meaning to buy this! Your work sounds great on the trailer @tublenco excited to hear the rest of the score :slight_smile:

Sweet! Just saw your reply Tublenco (haven’t been on elektronauts in a while). Yeah, saw the trailer and been keeping an eye out for it ever since. I’m in the US so I guess we just got it recently, as you said. Hoping I can find some time this weekend to check it out. Looking forward to it!

And though I haven’t seen the film yet I must say, well done on a damn serious undertaking-making a film AND scoring it. Keep it up!

The film is available on Netflix now :slight_smile:

Watched it a couple nights ago when it went up on Netflix. I certainly enjoyed it. I think all of us here will definitely appreciate the humour and inside jokes.

For those of you that are just hearing about this movie now: the movie is about a man who discovers how to hypnotize people with sound.

I thought I noticed the sound of an A4 during the credits. Guess I wasn’t paying attention enough to notice the entire soundtrack was just A4…

Watchimg it right now! Really liking it so far, twisted and with super camera shots!

Man, any chance of making this available to Russia?

Thank you for making this film! I really enjoyed it and will watch it again soon!

I was feeling the sounds and the music a lot and thinking 'o yeaa that must but some A4 and OP1 stuff going on :slight_smile:

Thanks! I’m glad you guys liked it. Had a blast making it’s and always fun when you can use your toys :slight_smile:

4.33: Not sure about Russia. I know it’s out on iTunes and Netflix in many countries. Also on Amazon Instant Video, Blockbuster, Sony, Vudu, Xbox, Google Play etc… I hope you can find it somewhere.

Hey Tublenco, got this from iTunes a couple of nights ago & watched it straight away. Really enjoyed it!
Soundtrack works really well, not too busy, compliments rather than distracts, very well done :slight_smile:

Thanks bluewolfse7en! I’m glad you enjoyed it :slight_smile:

I just watched it this past week as well. There was the MD, MM, and A4 often in the movie. I believe 1.618 or something was the magic number.

It’s a pretty good movie. See what a damaged ego maniac can do.

I’m a swede and the movie felt really swedish. Normally I don’t like swedish films, but this one was funny to watch.

It was fun to see all the gear as well and the movie is great regarding, what I believe is a, small budget.

Cool

My lady and I are going to watch this on Netflix soon! We love Swedish cinema.

Thanks for watching the movie!
The whole film was shot in just 10 days on a shoestring budget, but we had a blast making it. I suppose it’s pretty dark and sarcastic at times, but I guess that’s just my sense of humor :slight_smile:

There’s also an Elektron interview about the film here: http://www.elektronauts.com/talk/view/64

We just finished watching the film. I enjoyed it.
The the story reminded me somewhat of “The Euphio Question”, a short story by Kurt Vonnegut published in 1951.

I particularly enjoyed the humor in this film, and spotting all the techno references. :slight_smile:

The logical conclusion was brilliant, as well. I look forward to your future projects!
