icelandic composer lafur arnalds set to release his first hollywood film score. lafur arnalds' original motion picture soundtrack for sam levinson's feature film debut 'another happy day', starring ellen barkin and demi moore, will see a worldwide release via uk modern classical label erased tapes records on february 27, 2012. in his own words: 'in mid-december 2010 i was on a holiday in china when i received an email from sam levinson about the film. we got on the phone at like 4 in the morning beijing time and ended up talking all through the night, instantly connecting. he told me that they had been listening to my music while making the film, so the film was already very influenced by my music. however, it was not until ellen barkin - the beautiful force that she is - had pestered the producers for a week, calling them every day about how i am the right one for this film, that they finally gave in. the only catch was that it had to be done two weeks later, in the first week of january. so i ended up scoring nonstop all throughout christmas, making my mother mad in the process.'
