Why this is on Radar
Soundtrack relationship: the score for Akira, itself a foundational post-apocalyptic cyberpunk work already in the catalogue.
Geinoh Yamashirogumi's score uses gamelan, chanting and synthesiser percussion to score Neo-Tokyo's collapse. Percussive and ritualistic rather than orchestral, and inseparable from the film's imagery.
