Graeme Revell

Graeme Revell，1955年出生于新西蘭。盡管他曾經(jīng)系統(tǒng)學習過古典鋼琴以及圓號，Revell的第一份工作卻是在澳大利亞的一所精神病院。不過在這段時間他和幾個有音樂修養(yǎng)的病人組成了一支工業(yè)搖滾樂隊“SPK”。這為他日后混合工業(yè)搖滾和電子音樂的獨特風格打下了基礎。1989年Revell樂隊為電影《Dead Calm》創(chuàng)作的一首單曲"In Flagrante Delicot"得到了當年的澳大利亞電影學院最佳電影配樂獎。從此Graeme Revell踏入了電影配樂的領域。Revell的作品以動作片為主，善于刻畫陰暗的風格。代表作品有：
Hard Target 1993
Crow, The 1994
Crow: City Of Angels, The 1996
Spawn 1997
Chinese Box 1997
Bride Of Chucky 1998
Pitch Black 2000
Lara Croft: Tomb Raider 2001
CSI: Miami 2002
Daredevil 2003
Freddy Vs. Jason 2003
Chronicles Of Riddick, The 2004
Kingdom Of Heaven 2005
Goal! 2005
Sin City 2005

盡管Graeme Revell在1997年憑借《Chinese Box》奪得了威尼斯電影節(jié)金棕櫚獎，他至今從未獲得過真正的喝彩和榮譽，不過以他眾多作品的高認可度，相信這一天不會太遠。
Coming into the public eye with his brooding score for the 1989 Australian film Dead Calm, composer Graeme Revell has gone on to score films for directors such as John Woo, Wim Wenders, Robert Rodriguez, Ted Demme, and Michael Mann. Born in Auckland, New Zealand, in 1955, Revell graduated from the University of Auckland with degrees in economics and politics. His skills as a classically trained pianist assisted him as a member of the experimental industrial rock group SPK. Cinematic theatrics were an essential part of SPK's live show (foreshadowing Revell's future career in film) with early performances featuring slides and films of surgery, and the use of flame throwers and oil drums. The band dissolved in the late '80s, coinciding with Revell's exploration into film scores. His Dead Calm score won him an Australian Film Industry award, prompting his move to London to work as an independent musician. Revell has had quite a prolific career composing music for films like Street Fighter and The Craft, as well as producing soundtracks for Until the End of the World, The Crow, The Basketball Diaries, Strange Days, and From Dusk Till Dawn.
