Edit Music for a Film: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack Reconstruction is a two-disc UNKLE remix album/sound collection mixing together various musical styles, movie soundbites and UNKLE production. This was done for the 'After Dark' event in the ICA, London. James Lavelle put together a mix of soundtracks from films that inspired him the most. As the album notes point out: 2001: A Space Odyssey, Dune, Dog Day Afternoon, Kill Bill, Sexy Beast, Training Day, and Blade Runner amongst others.
The first disc Widescreen Edit – A New Hope, which is taken from the first original Star Wars film Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope, and mainly focuses on inventive usage of film dialogue and scores. The second disc Bonus Material Edit – Strikes Back, which is likely a contraction of the second made Star Wars film The Empire Strikes Back, focuses more on rhythm and long stretches of film-inspired "dance" music without the heavy inventiveness of the previous disc.
