Chris Abrahams (pianist and one third of The Necks) has proven his sonic mastery once again with the creation of a beautiful, minimalist and evocative soundtrack for the new Australian film by writer/director Jonathan Ogilvie, The Tender Hook.
A stunning piece of compositional work that elegantly melds acoustic instrumentation with electronic sampling, The Tender Hook soundtrack carries all the hallmarks of Abrahams' mesmerising sound. The Tender Hook is set in 1920s Sydney - a time when the fledgling city was undergoing immense change - the Sydney Harbour Bridge was being built, political parties were forming, and underworld crime had a powerful grip on the city. Abrahams' gentle artistry and diverse range is evident in the shimmering quality of tracks like 'After The Bridge', the ebb and flow of 'Tender Hook Theme', the lilting melancholy of 'The Iris Label' or the twin reflections of 'Bolshie' and 'First Fight' that sit alongside a myriad haunting vignettes. The Tender Hook Soundtrack features musicians: Chris Abrahams, Tony Buck, Jonathan Zwartz, Hamish Stuart, Todd Hardy, Carl Dewhurst and Phil Slater.
