UK musician and producer Chris Clark may have started the 2000s making some of Warp Records’ more inventive sounds in the IDM vein of the time, but he was quick to show that he wouldn’t be pigeonholed. He’s since made albums that traverse a spectrum that includes ambient, neoclassical, melodic instrumental, rave tunes and more, often playing live drums or, as he did on 2023’s Sus Dog, singing. That facility with working across genres has both served and informed his commissioned compositions for film, TV, dance and video games; the range of moods is plentiful on his soundtrack to In Camera, Naqqash Khalid’s reality-blurring film about an actor who’s struggling amid a series of auditions and rejections. But what makes the soundtrack so playable as a front-to-back album is its pacing. There’s a reverent patience to the minimalist opener “Green Wash”, which leads gently into the hypnotic, twinkling “Green Breaking” (a track that recalls fellow Warp mates Broadcast). “Superstar”, which follows, is a dread-inducing cover of Sonic Youth’s cover of the Carpenters’ song that redirects the original’s melancholy for modern times. Throughout, Clark uses the framework of electronic pop to sneakily create a creeping sense of unease, and when there aren’t vocals or beats present, the sounds are both meditative and unsteadying.
