Also check out Shore's score to "Videodrome" that was recently released on
CD on Varese Sarabande. I think it's mostly Synclavier, I could be wrong.
Washy, atonal organ-tones, very cool. I ripped it to MP3 and play it a lot
at work in the background... helps keep people away from my desk.

One of my absolute favorites is Howard Shore's score to Cronenberg's
"Scanners", creepy orchestra meets modular synths! Very effective stuff,
one of the few records that can consistantly scare me. The score is
available on a CD called "Dead Ringers: Music for the Films of David
Cronenberg." Shore is one of my favorite film composers, and "Scanners" is
one of his most overtly electronic scores.
