Cave teams up with Dirty Three
Nick Cave has teamed up with Dirty Three member, Warren Ellis, on the
soundtrack to upcoming film, The Proposition.

Cave has written the script and soundtrack for the forthcoming film which
stars Guy Pearce.
The music was composed with Ellis, who also happens to be Cave's long-time
songwriting partner for the Bad Seeds. Ellis, who lives in France, recorded
some of the violin loops at his house.
"It was very different to making a normal record," Ellis says. "There were no
boundaries in that respect, and I enjoyed much more than I thought I would.
The music had to be very flexible, and as a result it has a very improvised,
loose feel. But that's fine. Beethoven and Mozart did not write with films in
mind either."
Cave warns fans this will not be the Nick Cave album they are used to. "I
didn't want to have songs in it," he explains, "or Nick Cave songs,
certainly. For me it was delicately balanced thing. On the one hand you don't
want a historical movie with a real contemporary soundtrack, but nor did we
want wall-to-wall Irish jigs. I didn't want songs to act as distraction."
The Proposition soundtrack will be released on September 26
