So we just wrote about “The Guatemalan Handshake,” the Todd Rohal indie film starring Bonnie Prince Billy‘s Will Oldham, scored by Ola Podrida‘s David Wingo and championed by indie darling David Gordon Green.
We had lamented the fact that we had missed it in theaters, but were excited now that it’s on DVD.
So far there’s no soundtrack disc yet (but their might be), but we emailed Wingo and he was kind enough to share two exclusive tracks from the score that have never been officially released yet.
They’re short little cues, but they’re great. Hopefully this little film finds a following on DVD. We suspect it will. Wingo/DGG’s buddies in the North Carolina band Pyramid did the score to an upcoming indie comedy. More on that soon (they did some music for “All the Real Girls” and “Undertow,” and Wingo scored them both).
