Blow Up Hollywood is one of the first bands The Deli covered in print in 2004, and 6 years later we can hardly find anything in common with the art-rock they delivered at the time. Co-founder Steve Messina and multi-instrumentalist Rich Kern created the music for the new album "Take Flight" as a soundtrack for the documentary “Mustang – Journey of Transformation,” using exclusively analogue synths. The soundtrack retains and enhances the meditation-inducing mood that’s at the core of the movie, which stars the Dalai Lama and was shot in the Kingdom of Mustang in Nepal, one of the last places on earth that Tibetan culture is allowed to thrive. Call it ambient music or music for films, this is music that can be enjoyed even in NYC – in particular when the need for relaxation kicks in. Blow Up Hollywood will play live at Rockwood Music Hall (196 Allen, Manhattan) on September 08.
