LOS ANGELESMarch 3, 2021PRLog — Alexander Taylor’s score to the upcoming horror film, Dreamcatcher is getting released digitally on Friday, March 5th by 1984 Publishing. The album consists of 28 original tracks. The film, directed Jacob Johnston, is getting distributed by Samuel Goldwyn Films on the same day as the album release. The film stars Niki Koss, Zachary Gordon, Travis Burns, Blaine Kern III, Olivia Sui, Emrhys Cooper, Elizabeth Posey, Nazanin Mandi, Lou Ferrigno Jr. and Adrienne Wilkinson. Some of Taylor’s other credits include Scream, Queen! My Nightmare on Elm Street, The Dead of Night and Hunter’s Moon. The score will be available on all major digital sites including iTunes, Spotify, Amazon and Apple Music.

When discussing the score, Alexander says, “Dreamcatcher is a slick, stylish, and smart film. I really wanted the score to reflect that. A return to my ‘rock roots’, I was able to craft a hauntingly seductive guitar tone that dances around thick, indulgent synth and blunt-force percussion. An innovative, textured, and exciting score that’s ultimately a love letter to 90’s ensemble horror, Dreamcatcher should leave your heart pounding and foot tapping.”

The official synopsis for Dreamcatcher (http://www.samuelgoldwynfilms.com/dreamcatcher/) reads: Dylan, known to his fans as DJ Dreamcatcher, is on the brink of global stardom. Everything changes the night of Cataclysm, an underground music festival, where two estranged sisters and their friends meet Dylan. After a drug fueled gruesome event, things begin to spiral into a 48-hour whirlwind of violence and mayhem.

His work can be heard in the Thomas Jane helmed werewolf film, HUNTER’S MOON, released by Lionsgate. “HUNTER’S MOON is a splash of Tom Waits, a pinch of Marco Beltrami, and a healthy scoop of insanity seamlessly blended together into Alexander Taylor’s organic and quirky thriller score,” writes Greg Richling (Head of Production at Pfonetic/bassist for The Wallflowers).
