Dorothy

In my vision for the Obscura soundtrack, I see the movie making big on the Gothic Southern Rock Antebellum sound as it contrasts with the glimmer of glamour thrust upon any film in which Hollywood is a main them for the film. The new LA band, signed by RocNation, Dorothy has the sound of a great classic rock band with the howls of a passionate fireball singer in Dorothy Martin. Their rockabilly sound plows through the inevitable sound of morose suspense and danger that awakens a corrupted madness that unfolds in their eyes.

Dorothy has the smokiest female lead singer that is part Blondie but with the voice of Pat Benetar. This woman brings the fire and grit needed to emit the sounds of thunder this film needs to bring home the beat. Hollywood in their eyes is a wilderness, a cluster of ideas bringing down the house.

The attraction to the music is truly from the raw and deep sexuality of the Southern Gothic mystique. It’s mysterious, dark, and spellbinding. Like a Scorpio in the zodiac, it swims in a vast pool of aura that sucks one whole. When the velocity of the hurricane sucks you back to reality, it is a foreign world because the perception of it is skewed. That is the tale of Hollywood based Obscura. In some ways, the film is an American Gothic folk piece about frailty of man and the separation of  reality and the simulacrum it has created in its mind. In “Gun in my Hand,” Dorothy focuses on the momentum of an enraptured suffocating love that fuses its ego upon the person, causing a rifting avalanche of emotions that sets of a chain reaction. The love is like a game of Russian roulette. The gun is the only thing between the lover on the ledge and the lost man toiling with the great escape plan.
