Music rt4a Accelerate

Accelerate condenses Bernard Herrmann’s Psycho score twentyfold, into an urgent five minutes, where Douglas Gordon stretched the film to twenty-four hours in 24 Hour Psycho (1993). The repeated word ‘accelerate’ recalls the Beatles’ ‘Revolution 9’ (1968), over thousands of samples that shift with each bar, and the Wilhelm scream, a nod to the film’s climax, returns faster and faster. Released on 30 June 2022, the track accompanies my painting Accelerate (2022), acrylic, KRINK marker and pencil on linen.
