Description

Swedish trio **Death & Vanilla** follow their much-praised re-imagined soundtracks to Vampyr (2017) and The Tenant (2018) with their interpretation of the soundtrack to cult 1968 TV programme **Whistle and I’ll Come To You**, at a time when post-ambient electronica and bedevilled folk music are co-habiting, and the public’s interest in rites and rituals has been sparked by a new generation of fans. The bizarre storyline of Whistle and I’ll Come To You seems even more pertinent… and strangely haunting.

The Jonathan Miller-adapted 1968 ghost story was originally part of BBC’s Omnibus series and featured Michael Horden as a fussy professor who discovers an ancient whistle which summons up the spirits. A folkloric tale in the style of The Wicker Man, the original TV programme received rave reviews.

The esoteric live score was recorded at the Hypnos Theatre in Malmö. The 42-minute soundtrack utilises stuttering tape loops on ‘Intro’ before breathing new life into the primitive John Carpenter-like drum machine on ‘Supernatural Breakfast’, while ‘Walk On The Beach 2’ sounds like a hauntological rendition of a Broadcast classic. That effect is amplified on ‘Nightmares’, with its swirling wind and other-worldly choral effect, before the feeling of some supernatural presence is suggested on the penultimate cut ‘Evidence Of Spiritualism’.
