You're local, and yet you're not playing CMJ. How lonely do you plan to feel next week?
We are a little confused as to what you are referring. What is this thing you call CMJ? We think you are confusing it with MYMC (aka Morricone Youth Movie Club), which will actually be very, very busy this upcoming week curating yet another action packed, high quality soundtrack-centric film series! The second in what is anticipated to become a monthly fixture on the New York scene commences on Wednesday 9.14 and continues through Saturday 9.17.

The schedule is as follows:

On Wednesday 9.14 (7:55 pm), MYMC meets at the IFC Waverly Theater for a "two-for" (all attendees are encouraged to try to sneak in to the second screening to avoid paying double admission). First is TOUCH THE SOUND (2005), a documentary by Thomas Riedelsheimer on Evelyn Glennie, a Grammy-winning classical percussionist whose solo work is unrivalled. She is also deaf. She and Fred Frith provide the soundtrack. Up second is Miranda July's ME AND YOU AND EVERYONE WE KNOW (2005). This film is especially near and dear to guitarist E. Levins' heart as Mike Andrews composed the soundtrack (ex-Greyboy Allstars, Elgin Parks, Inara George), who is most known for his soundtracks to Donnie Darko and Freaks and Geeks. Not to mention that Drive Like Jehu drummer Mark Trombino's longterm girl Christie
Wittenborn was the costume designer!!! This film cannot be missed!

Thursday 9.15 (7:40 p.m.), continues with the conclusion of The Film Forum's impeccable Summer Samurai series, a double feature of Hideo Gosha's GOYOKIN (1969) and Kihachi Okamoto's ZATOICHI MEETS YOJIMBO (1970). Goyokin's soundtrack was composed by the well-known Kurosawa collaborator Masaru Sato, while Zatoichi includes a score from the legendary composer Akira Ifukube (best known for composing the music to most of the Godzilla films). Almost too much soundtrack intensity for one night. Plus no sneaking will be necessary since the admission includes both films. (http://www.filmforum.org/films/samurai.html#912)

On Friday 9.16 (6:00 p.m.), MYMC meets at the Museum of Modern Art to catch Akira Kurosawa's SUGATA SANSHIRO (1943). What more needs to be said? It's Akira Kurosawa!!!

Finally, we journey out to Queens to wrap it up on Saturday 9.17 (7:30 p.m.) at the American Museum of the Moving Image with Alfred Hitchcock's VERTIGO. Ever heard of a little composer named Bernard Herrmann? We have!

Will this loneliness pass or do foresee yourself getting further jaded and cynical as a result?
Still not very sure to what you are referring. We do not foresee any loneliness since the first installment of MYMC was a smashing success that included one-half of the band - not to mention one band wife!!! We anticipate that the second series will maybe even draw 2/3 of the band members and even more significant others.

Are there any bands or showcases you will be attending next week?
????

Are plans in the works to play SXSW next spring?
Not sure about playing SXSW but MYMC has already made its travel accommodations in an attempt to put together an Austin installment that same week. We just started calling moviefone this weekend in order to map out what films are playing there that week.

			Morricone Youth Interview by Steve Brydges In an effort to delve into the psyche of a NYC-based band not playing CMJ, I interviewed local band Morricone Youth, whose new album, Silenzio Violento, is in your hands now (provided those hands aren't full; the left holding a plastic cup of suds, and the right the glad-handing grip of someone at Matador or Polyvinyl or some such. It turns out, Morricone Youth is blissfully ignorant to the goings on in the music industry - unsurprising, really, when one considers their chosen genre of music is soundtrack lore. What I unearthed from the interview was an underground film festival was afoot. Silenzio Violento will be released worldwide on 10.04.05. Morricone Youth's CD-release show will be 11.02.05 at Scenic in scenic New York City. www.morriconeyouth.com
