Weekender

Weekender

The exploits of two friends who make the move from partying at illegal warehouse raves, to becoming successful promoters at the peak of the Manchester, Amsterdam and Ibiza rave scene in the early 90s.

Definitely our kind of film! Having grown up as teenagers in the 90s, we could relate to this subject, and with a soundtrack mixed by Terry Farley, including tracks such as Inner City’s ‘Good Life’ and Leftfield’s ‘Not Forgotten’ we were always onto a winner! Plenty of sound design here getting in and out of club scenes and trippy out of body experiences… trust us… it’s all about the Whales.

Everywhere & Nowhere

Everywhere & Nowhere

A British drama focusing on the identity struggles of Ash (James Floyd), a young British Pakistani who is torn between the traditions of middle-class family life and his passion for DJ’ing. From Director Menhaj Huda.
This is the film that we met our now good friend, Menhaj Huda on. A chance for us to get our hands dirty with a mixture of multicultural British society and some banging club beats, including a remix of Robert Miles’ ‘Children’ from our also-now-great-mates, Nerm and D-Code (Shiva Sound System).

Le Donk & Scor-Zay-Zee

Le Donk & Scor-Zay-Zee

A 2009 fly-on-the-wall mockumentary written and directed by Shane Meadows, starring Paddy Considine, Arctic Monkeys and Scorzayzee. Le Donk, an ageing and failing musician and roadie, embarks on one last swansong working for the Arctic Monkeys whilst trying to promote his up and coming rapper, Scorzayzee. All this while juggling the fact that he is due to be a father… something’s got to give here…!

This was our first film as Pindrop, and one that we are very proud of! It’s got everything that we love: music, laughs, and a good story of a middle aged man trying to cling to his youth. Big thanks to Shane Meadows and Libby Durdy (Warp Films) for bringing us this wonderful film to get our company started.

I Am Because We Are

I Am Because We Are

In 2008 Richard and Steve worked with Nathan Rissman and Madonna on their heart wrenching documentary.

IAMBECAUSEWEARE is a film that explores the lives of children who have been orphaned by AIDS, and have suffered more than we can possibly imagine.

Set in Malawi, Africa, we follow Madonna as she leads us on a journey through one of the poorest countries on the planet. As we try to discover what is in the heads and hearts of Malawi’s one million plus orphans, we begin to understand that this is not just a story about the orphans of Malawi, rather a story about all of us.

Working closely with Rod Berling (Sound Supervisor), Nathan and Madonna, we helped to build the sound platform so that you could experience the tears, the joy and more importantly the hope for the future generations of Malawi.

The Walker

The Walker

Carter Page III (Woody Harrelson) is a society “walker”, whose job entails squiring the wives of the rich and powerful to events their husbands could not accompany them to. When one of his friends, Lynn (Kristin Scott Thomas), wife of a liberal senator finds her lover murdered, he agrees to say he found the body to save her and her husband political embarrassment. Soon Carter is caught in a web of Washington intrigue and mixed motives and the people he considered friends are deserting him one by one.

A chance for us to work with a real legend of film, Paul Schrader on this very cool film with a stellar cast! This was all about great dialogues from some fantastic actors, with a flavour of Washington society weaved in for good measure.
