Howlin' Wolf Records is very proud to present THE DEAD by British Indian Film Composer and Music Producer Imran Ahmad (composer for the award winning documentary MAYOMI). THE DEAD directed by The Ford Brothers, Howard and Jonathan Ford, is an acclaimed and unique zombie film shot on location in West Africa, which follows the journey of an American mercenary/engineer and an African militia officer as they struggle to survive a zombie pandemic and reconnect with family amidst a world in chaos and turmoil. The music for THE DEAD is a hauntingly, beautiful score composed by Imran Ahmad, rich with percussion, flutes, and acoustic ancestral textures provided by Gambian kora player Jally Kebba Susso with stirring and evocative chants/vocals by Eritrean singer Saba Tewelde.
THE DEAD features an 8-page booklet with beautiful artwork and designs created by Luis Miguel Rojas, including notes from composer Imran Ahmad and biographies for featured artists Jally Kebba Susso and Saba Tewelde. For a limited time orders placed on the Howlin' Wolf Records website will ship with an additional insert booklet autographed by composer Imran Ahmad. This offer is only available while supplies last.
