diverse and beautiful genre bending release
author: ProgNaut
Penny Nation delivers the goods on “The Invisible Movie Soundtrack” with its diverse and beautiful genre bending release. One can only imagine what type of movie would this be a soundtrack for. I can gather it’s about relationships amongst people, whether it be happy, sad, exciting, romantic. Each song expresses different emotions or moods by which these talented musicians show the music world you can be artistic while still having memorable music.

genius
author: Wasim Muklashy
One can’t help but wonder what sort of movie this would be the soundtrack to, and the only real possibility would be an ‘invisible’ one. No need for a predetermined set of moving images, for this healthy and eclectic 19 track sampler promise to conjure up a different scenario in the mind with each listen.
Penny Nation records has managed to effectively include everything from soul to jazz to electronica, r&b, hard rock, and beyond. The genius behind this project knows that the only format that such an eclectic mix would embody is a soundtrack format, therefore, though ironically since there is no accompanying movie, the title ‘Invisible Movie Soundtrack’ seems to be a perfect fit.
Just like the movie that is reality, in this movie of our imaginations, there’s room for funny, room for sad, room for happy, for exciting, definitely for the unexpected, and there’s even some sexy space in there for a spicy Latin love scene. I’m not sure what the setting, characters, and the plotline will be for your Invisible Movie…what makes the final cut is entirely up to you. But one thing’s for sure…it’ll have a happy ending.
I’ll definitely be keeping an ear out for future releases from these guys.
