If I Were Wes Anderson: Soundtrack Series Vol. 9

Perhaps you heard about this Soundtrack Series we do from time to time (read more). We could go on for years to explain our intentions here, but we won’t bore you. Suffice to say when we heard back in early 2006 that Wes’ new movie would be set in India we began mulling that idea around and obviously came up with the films of Satyajit Ray which lead us to all kinds of things (some on the mark and some just nice and different, aside from all the other wide possibilities of course). This is a lot to absorb in one sitting so we suggest you don’t, but we hope you enjoy. A bit of thought and time went into it.
