Ghost House by Rich Ragsdale
Howlin' Wolf Records is very proud to present GHOST HOUSE, a richly textured, haunting, and beautiful score by director and composer Rich Ragsdale. For GHOST HOUSE the composer used a three-tiered approach, anchored by a classical symphonic horror score recorded using the Budapest Scoring Orchestra conducted by Péter Pejtsik. This is augmented by 80's synth elements, paying homage to scores by Goblin and John Carpenter. Finally, ambient ethnic sounds were incorporated to honor Thailand where the film is set, featuring monks recorded live in a Thai temple. The album concludes with a melodically lovely, yet eerie vocal track gorgeously performed by Sherri Chung.
The insert booklet for GHOST HOUSE features liner notes written by the film's director and composer Rich Ragsdale. The packaging designs by Luis Miguel Rojas are both beautiful and frightening to reflect the essence of the film and the score.
Produced albums with 2m1 Records
2m1 Records was a small independently owned label that produced a variety of soundtrack scores. I was fortune enough to produce 7 albums with the label from 2009-2010. These are all out of print (OOP) and no longer for sale.
