Death Wish (Original Soundtrack Recording)
Herbie Hancock
Recorded during a period of experimentation, the music uses early analog synthesizers like the Prophet-5 to create a menacing texture. These sparse arrangements serve the vigilante thriller film by mirroring its dark urban setting.
This project stands apart from the artist's other work of the time. By focusing on cold, synthetic sounds, the record captures a sense of tension that defines its cinematic intent.
