【Youtube转载】Thom Yorke - suspiria interview

原文：“I referred to the original ‘Suspiria’ film,” explained Yorke. “It was an odd process from the beginning. When they first came to see me, the producers and [editor] Walter [Fasano], I just thought they were mad, because I’ve never done a soundtrack before. And ‘Suspiria’ is one of those legendary soundtracks. It took a few months to even contemplate the idea.” Despite his reservations, Yorke eventually agreed to do the film, but opted to go in an entirely different direction with his take. “I watched the original film several times, and I loved it because it was of that time, an incredibly intense soundtrack. Obviously Goblin and Dario worked incredibly closely when they did it together,” Yorke said. “But it was of its time and there was no way I could reference it in any way. There was no point, other than what I found interesting was they used repetition of motifs, again and again and again. Part of your mind was saying, ‘Please, I don’t want to hear this anymore. That was really great. There’s a way of repeating in music that can hypnotize. I kept thinking to myself that it’s a form of making spells. So when I was working in my studio I was making spells. I know it sounds really stupid, but that’s how I was thinking about it. It was a sort of freedom I’ve not had before. I’ve not worked in the format of song arrangement. I’m just exploring.”
翻译慢慢来

原文:“我指的是原始“Suspiria”电影,”约克解释道。这从一开始就是一个奇怪的过程。当他们第一次来看我的时候，制片人和(编辑)沃尔特[法萨诺]，我只是认为他们疯了，因为我以前从未做过配乐。“Suspiria”是那些传奇的配乐之一。甚至花了几个月的时间考虑这个想法。尽管约克对此持保留态度，但他最终还是同意出演这部电影，但选择了一个完全不同的方向。“我看了好几遍原版电影，我很喜欢它，因为它是那个时代的电影，是一种难以置信的强烈配乐。”很明显地，妖精和达里奥合作的时候非常紧密，”约克说。“但那是它的时代，我无法以任何方式引用它。没有意义，除了我发现有趣的是他们使用重复的主题，一遍又一遍。你脑子里的一部分在说，‘拜托，我不想再听这个了。那真是太棒了。音乐中有一种重复的方式可以催眠。我一直在想这是一种符咒。所以当我在我的工作室工作的时候，我在做咒语。我知道这听起来很傻，但我就是这么想的。这是一种我从未有过的自由。我没有做过编曲的工作。我只是探索。”

随缘翻译，欢迎指正
这张专辑全部依照电影进行创作，从创作一开始就非常奇怪。编剧和制作方找到我的时候，我觉得他们都是疯子，因为我以前从来没有做过像Suspiria这样的原声带。构思该专用了我几个月时间。最后我终于同意了帮助他们进行制作，但是我的创作风格却和他们想的完全不一样。我看了几次这部电影，我很喜欢自己的这张专辑（自吹）。显然最后Goblin和Dario合作的很不错，但是我不能利用这一段进行作曲。接下来我发现比较有趣的是他们反反复复运用歌曲的重复，这可能使你想“我不想在听到这一段了”。这种“重复我能预测的歌曲”的感觉真的很棒。因此，当我在工作室里进行创作时，我知道这样听起来很蠢，但这就是我想表达的效果。有一种以前没感受过的、别样的自由。我只是在规划歌曲时探索一下而已。
