Friday Dec 20th The Brewed & Toke THC seltzer are hosting a screening of F.W. Mernau’s 1922 silent film Nosferatu with an original score by Kortland Chase.

If you want to get hyped for the Robert Eggers remake dropping the following week or just revisit an old favorite with a new musical interpretation, join us after hours at The Brewed. Movie starts at 7. Come have a Toke, slam an espresso, buy a record at Bric-a-Brac, and watch this 102 year old film with us. Big thanks to @em_ily.png for the connect!

Process detail (TLDR):

As some of you know, I’ve been releasing instrumental music under my experimental composition moniker ACTORESS. This project is a recording exercise in which l attempt to create music within genres I am not fluent in, similar to how an actor takes on different characters for different roles (hence the name ACTORESS). Through this exploration I began thinking more on how to pivot to music for film, television, and games.

I see this re-score as a time capsule for my mental state through the last year of heavy living. So despite its flaws, I leave it as a representation of my year filtered through the lens of THE first film about a lonely vampire.
