Pillion
Pillion (Original Soundtrack) features the original score by acclaimed British composer and cellist Oliver Coates for the A24 film Pillion. Known for his emotionally rich and experimental approach to film music in productions such as Aftersun, The Stranger, and Mary & George, Coates crafts an intimate soundtrack that blends modern classical composition with ambient electronics and minimalist textures.
Built around expressive cello performances, subtle piano motifs, and atmospheric electronic elements, the score mirrors the emotional landscape of the film with remarkable restraint. Tracks such as “Sex & Bonfire,” “Colin's First Ride,” “Gymnopedie1,” “Driveaway,” and the closing “Driveaway – Original Piano” create a deeply personal listening experience, balancing tenderness, vulnerability, and quiet tension.
Coates' signature style blurs the boundaries between contemporary classical music, ambient sound design, and cinematic storytelling. Rather than relying on grand orchestral gestures, Pillion embraces minimalism and carefully layered textures, allowing each cue to evolve naturally alongside the film's emotional arc. The result is a soundtrack that is as compelling on its own as it is within the film itself.
Presented on vinyl by A24 Music, Pillion (Original Soundtrack) is an essential addition for collectors of contemporary film scores and fans of Oliver Coates' distinctive musical voice. Its intimate compositions and understated beauty make it one of the most compelling modern soundtrack releases.
