Details: Amazon.ca When Danny DeVito commissioned Irish producer David Holmes to provide the score for the film Out of Sight, he chose wisely. Holmes's gritty, urban dance music, first exposed on the sadly underrated The Film's Crap Let's Slash the Seats, is perfect for evoking scenes and atmospheres, yet it's interesting enough to stand on its own. For this album, Holmes and a friend wandered the streets of New York, collecting voices and noises; Holmes then assembled them into an imaginary soundtrack with the structures of modern dance music and the sonic qualities of rock and dub reggae. Let's Get Killed is a disjointed cut-up session that brings the grit and excitement of city life into your living room without leaving a drop of blood. --Matthew Corwine Product Description This mind-blowing Belfast DJ is considered one of the premiere artists in his field, up there with Darren Emerson (Underworld) and Andrew Weatherall (One Dove, Primal Scream). His new release is a musical tour of New York City - a mostly instrumental, beat-driven album tied together with sound bytes of NYC streets. David's fans won't be surprised at the cinematic bend of his new music (present in his 1st record, 1993's DeNiro, which sold 30,000 copies). Single to NPR and commercial alt-rock: "Gritty Shaker."
