Geoff Barrow / Ben Salisbury: Drokk, Music Inspired by Mega-City One (2012)

OK, I will admit that I had never heard of Mega-City One when I picked this up. I was, however, familiar with the name Geoff Barrow from his work with Portishead and others. This album is fantastic. Allmusic says:

"Salisbury and Barrow recorded most of the soundtrack with a vintage 1975 Oberheim 2 Voice Synthesizer, which gives the soundtrack an authentic late-'70s feel that channels John Carpenter's spare, creepy synth-based scores, especially Escape from New York. Drokk's mix of dead air, dark, viscous analog synth tones, and thrumming arpeggios is hypnotic and intense but never too claustrophobic -- like any good soundtrack, this album is more about creating a mood than calling attention to itself."

The good news is that you can listen to the entire album here. Of course, it sounds better on vinyl.
