The Caterpillar Club (debut novel soundtrack)

by Mark Rae

/
  • Record/Vinyl + Digital Album

    Deluxe high gloss 14 track 12' vinyl album, with supreme quality matt printed inner sleeve. This one off package comes with a 12" slipmat branded with The Caterpillar Club and Mark Rae logo. An exclusive German promo CD is also included, this double pack contains the fabled Readers' Version, containing 25 ambient tracks created to listen to whilst reading Mark's forthcoming debut novel The Caterpillar Club.
    DJ Simon Radcliffe faces an identity crisis. Music is life, now his life itself is under threat.
    The Caterpillar Club soundtrack reflects the inherent questions posed by the debut novel by Mark Rae. Can we reinvent ourselves? Embrace forgiveness? Make life begin again?
    The complex rhythms, chords and melodies of the electronic soundtrack weave through the emotions of the chapters in instrumental form. West London plays its part, it is here that the book is set, and the areas musical DNA courses through the soundtrack’s veins. European soul is carved from the broken echoes of a world split between the analogue and digital. A soundtrack searching deep for a life force, glimmering somewhere within. The drums are sampled from the machines of the past. Is it a part of Simon’s past that has come to haunt him?
    Hardback released September 13th 2021.
