KISS OF THE CON QUEEN

Original Motion Picture Soundtrack

Director Tom Waller

Music by Ollie Howell

Label Plaza Mayor Company Ltd

European premiere at the prestigious Galway Film Fleadh

A striving actor is targeted by an ingenious and sadistic scammer, terrorizing the industry, impersonating Hollywood elites.

The film’s story felt like it existed in two distinct, and yet blurred, worlds; the sinister artificial world that the Con Queen has created for their victims, and the more real-world, on-the-ground, ramifications that world controls. For the artificial world, I captured this by using lo-fi analogue synthesisers and samplers, bending very subtly in and out of tune to each other, creating an unsettling and electronic ambience that felt warped and somehow fragile. For the “real world”, with so much of this part of the film being set in Thailand and Indonesia, I infused some heavily processed gamelan influences into the sound palette, but also found tuned metallic sounds that were non-musical in essence, but that could masquerade as gamelan sounds, to mimic the Con Queen’s deception and impersonations. I wanted it to feel like something didn’t quite belong there, arousing suspicion at all times. Then as the two worlds started to collide and intertwine, it was a lot of fun blending those two soundworlds together.
