Jeff Mills to mix live film soundtrack at Amsterdam Dance Event

The techno legend adds another film project to his growing resume.

At this October’s Amsterdam Dance Event, Jeff Mills will mix a live soundtrack for Die Frau im Mond, a 1928 silent film by German Expressionist Fritz Lang. In 2011, Mills released a score for the 1966 sci-fi classic Fantastic Voyage (a sample of which is below).

As Resident Advisor points out, Die Frau im Mond is an even more appropriate film for a techno soundtrack than Fantastic Voyage, as silent films were often accompanied by live musical accompaniment.

Die Frau im Mond (The Woman in the Moon) is notable for demonstrating the basics of rocket travel to a mass audience for the first time. Mills’ “cine-mix” is courtesy I amtechno and will take place October 17 at EYE Films, a new film museum. Tickets are on sale now.
