Rashomon is the solo project of London-based Matt Thompson, founding member of experimental art rock band Guapo. Established in 2004, the Film Music project was instigated as an attempt to apply filmic processes to music – re-imagining the underlying psychic meanings of the films, rather than creating soundtracks per se. Mixing together prog rock, electronic noise, waltzes, East European folk, trad metal, drones, psych rock and free jazz, the music is similar in intention to soundtrack innovators such as Toru Takemitsu, Jonathan Bepler and Ennio Morricone.
