The music, like so much of Reichardt’s film work, is low-key yet arresting, stripped down to the essentials, warm and unpretentious. The record includes two variations on the beloved “Leaving Home” theme, released for the first time on vinyl after years traveling in Yo La Tengo fan circles.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis music is a balm, remarkably full of emotion despite (or maybe because of) its restraint and minimalism. Originally released on They Shoot, We Score, a CD compiling several of the band’s soundtracks, Old Joy stands as a cohesive whole here, blooming and rewarding repeat listens. Sliding reverbed guitars, muted piano and percussion, the hum of an old amp - the blurry memory of an afternoon in the studio, or a short-lived road trip through the backwoods of Oregon.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe style=\"border: 0; width: 100%; height: 340px;\" src=\"https:\/\/bandcamp.com\/EmbeddedPlayer\/album=853350\/size=large\/bgcol=ffffff\/linkcol=0687f5\/artwork=none\/transparent=true\/\" seamless\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/mississippirecords.bandcamp.com\/album\/old-joy-official-soundtrack\"\u003eOld Joy (Official Soundtrack) by Yo La Tengo\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rocket","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44243503775926,"sku":null,"price":58.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0525\/9119\/8390\/files\/a0994013798_10.jpg?v=1756779561","url":"https:\/\/repressedrecords.com\/products\/yo-la-tengo-old-joy-lp","provider":"Repressed Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
