International Composer

Composer Malook Singh has been joined by Jiang Li (seen here) to work on the soundtrack to Cinema of Horror.

While Malook is busy adding an original score to the film's bhangra/bollywood scenes. Jiang Li will be bringing his unique and inspired blend of traditional Chinese and Western fusion to the rest of the film.

The director Peter M. Kershaw said, "I'm delighted that a British film that is inspired by the influence of Asian culture and reflects what it means to be living in Britain in 2008 should now reflect what you see on the screen in the music you'll hear on the film's soundtrack. It is great that the ethos and spirit of inclusion that went into making the film continues into the sound track. It is exciting to have a chance to work with two highly talented collaborators and to have their creative contribution add to the mix. In themselves they bring a realisation of the creative potential that can be born out of drawing from more than one cultural well. It is working with such talent that makes it all such fun".
