KAREN O AND THE KIDS Where The Wild Things Are OST (2009 UK
14-track CD soundtrack album - Inside Karen O is a Wild Thing – as
singer for the Grammy-nominated Yeah Yeah Yeahs, her wild thing is
in your face, vulnerable, obnoxious, tender, exciting… a
self-proclaimed 'spazoid.' To Oscar-nominated director Spike Jonze,
however, Karen O and her music possess something of a child-like
innocence, a guileless charm that put her exactly on the right
emotional wavelength to sonically capturethe film, be it a tender
moment or a wild rumpus. To compose the music, O enlisted friends
and fellow musicians she believed had a musical intuition that would
bolster her intent to marry sound to vision. Dubbed Karen O and
the Kids, these include Tristan Bechet [Services], Tom Biller
[co-producer with Karen O and member of Afternoons], Bradford Cox
[Deerhunter], Brian Chase [Yeah Yeah Yeahs], Dean Fertita [Queens
of the Stone Age, The Dead Weather, The Raconteurs], Aaron
Hemphill [Liars], Greg Kurstin [The Bird and the Bee], Jack Lawrence
[The Dead Weather, The Raconteurs, The Greenhornes], Oscar Michel
[Gris Gris], Imaad Wasif [New Folk Implosion, Alaska], Nick Zinner
[Yeah Yeah Yeahs] and an untrained children's choir. Together, Karen
O and the Kids created songs that are at times gargantuan and at
others stripped-down and bittersweet)
