Monos is the latest film to receive a score from the musician

Mica Levi has produced a new film score for upcoming film Monos.

The film, directed by Alejandro Landes, is described as a "survivalist thriller set on a remote mountain in Latin America", and will be released later this year. Levi's work on the film follows her soundtrack work for films such as Under The Skin and Jackie.

"I really like all the characters, the jungle, the mountains and the waves and the sounds of the natural environment - the film crew went to places no one has ever filmed in, recorded sound in, at least for a film," says Levi. "Lena Esequenzis did all the sound and environmental sound, then with the director, Alejandro Landes, and music supervisor, Bridget Samuels, and eventually engineer, Leandro De Loredo, we worked to get a balance of sound and music to picture. I hope you all enjoy the film as much as I did."

Levi's score for Monos will be released jointly by Invada Records and Lakeshore Records on August 30. You can hear the title track above.
