This is the vintage jazz used as the score-within-the-score in The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou. It's an undersea documentary score from 1973 and reminds me, of all things, of '60s and '70s action-adventure jazz from Hanna Barbera, with that moody, traveling flavor. CD is mastered from vinyl but sounds very good. Thought I'd mention it. John Bender, are you listening? Lukas    Posted:   May 21, 2007 - 8:39 AM     By:   Simon Morris   (Member) An even better CD is coming soon from Libaek: SOLAR FLARES, which is a jazzy and fairly funky re-issue of a library LP that he did in 1974.    Posted:   May 21, 2007 - 10:59 AM     By:   gumdrops1   (Member) It's an undersea documentary score from 1973 and reminds me, of all things, of '60s and '70s action-adventure jazz from Hanna Barbera, with that moody, traveling flavor.

Can't wait. PS: I'll be sure to wake up Bender and bring this to his attention if he doesn't already know.    Posted:   May 21, 2007 - 3:36 PM     By:   Nick Haysom   (Member) How bizarre! Trunk Records released a version of this only recently too: http://www.trunkrecords.com/turntable/inner_space.shtml    Posted:   May 21, 2007 - 3:47 PM     By:   Simon Morris   (Member) How bizarre! Trunk Records released a version of this only recently too: http://www.trunkrecords.com/turntable/inner_space.shtml The Trunk issue is more of a compilation of Libaek tracks from four separate soundtracks, 'Inner Space' being just one (and consists of four tracks). The new CD is the *full* soundtrack to 'Inner Space'.    Posted:   May 21, 2007 - 5:27 PM     By:   Thor   (Member) Sven Libæk. Sounds Danish or something. Where's he from?    Posted:   May 21, 2007 - 5:28 PM     By:   Lukas Kendall   (Member) Sven Libæk. Sounds Danish or something. Where's he from?

You know what they say: you wait for ages for a Sven Libaek CD and then... and they're both called "Inner Space". Spooky.    Posted:   May 22, 2007 - 12:24 PM     By:   Simon Morris   (Member) Ah, you Sven Libeak purist, you.

I have become aware of his library work in recent times. Also, he scored an Australian police series back around 1971 called BONEY (about a half caste Aboriginal detective) - it got shown here in the UK several times. There's an interview with Libaek here: http://www.vinylvulture.co.uk/interviews/sven_libaek.php    Posted:   Feb 22, 2014 - 4:15 PM     By:   Metromix   (Member) Ah, you Sven Libeak purist, you.

Discovered Sven back in '07 when I heard "Inner Space" being mastered in the studio next door to mine here in Melbourne, at the famous 180 Bank street (Metropolis / Armstrongs) studios ! I went in and immediately said.."what the hell is this" .. They though I was taking the piss... But I said I LOVE THIS STUFF... So they gave me the fist test CD master ! I still have it    Posted:   Feb 22, 2014 - 10:45 PM     By:   Josh   (Member) "Inner Space" is a fantastic album. Really groovy stuff. I bet Advise & Consent would love it.    Posted:   Feb 23, 2014 - 1:34 PM     By:   AlexCope   (Member) I picked up Votary's LP release of this album last month. It's a cool record, at times on the verge of sounding like a 70s low budget spy thriller and at other times bordering on kitschy elevator muzak, but always a groovy listen. Unfortunately my cat took a liking to it straight away and managed to get one of his claws into side one when I was flipping it over. There's now a loud repeating POP for almost a minute on that side as a result. And it drives the cat crazy.    Posted:   Feb 23, 2014 - 3:23 PM     By:   Tall Guy   (Member) That's totally kewl, Sir Lukas. Orchestral jazz along the lines of Hoyt Curtain's music. Can't wait.

RIP gumdrops1 Greg's still missed.    Posted:   Feb 23, 2014 - 3:42 PM     By:   Simon Morris   (Member) I don't know if it's still available, but Libaek's album Solar Flares - library music that he recorded years ago, and which I mentioned earlier in the thread (yikes - seven years ago!) - is well worth a listen. There are a few tracks on YouTube, eg 'Lift Off': http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cU7zo2Za2Bs Some of the music he did for the Australian TV series Boney was released on an LP; I keep hoping that someone might have a go at putting that on CD, if any tapes still exist.    Posted:   Feb 23, 2014 - 7:35 PM     By:   Hopkirk   (Member) Ah, you Sven Libeak purist, you.

I still have it Madman has released the entire series of INNER SPACE on DVD in Australia. There's probably some copies left which include the original CD soundtrack. http://www.madman.com.au/series/home/16822/inner-space-the-complete-series    Posted:   Feb 23, 2014 - 10:37 PM     By:   Justin Boggan   (Member) I looked his name up on IMDb. It shows he's scoring a new film called "The Nymph". He also scored something last year.    Posted:   Jul 23, 2014 - 9:56 PM     By:   Josh   (Member) Heads up, amigos: Votary Records recently released on CD & vinyl Sven Libaek's score for the 1966 documentary NATURE WALKABOUT, and it's airy '60s jazz vibes (literally, since the vibraphone features prominently in the music) are making for a refreshing listen on this cool summer evening. Unlike INNER SPACE, which came in a jewel case, this one's packaged in a digipak (just an FYI for those who care about such things). Handsome set. Great music. Highly recommended.
