It Follows (soundtrack): History and Key Facts

It Follows (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) is the film score to the 2015 film It Follows directed by David Robert Mitchell. The original score for It Follows was composed by Rich Vreeland, known as Disasterpeace, in his debut feature film. Vreeland was involved in the project after Mitchell temped some of his music from Fez. The score was written in a tight deadline of three weeks as the film was about to be premiered at the 2014 Cannes Film Festival on May 17.

The album was produced by Richard Glasser and published via Milan Records which released the album digitally on March 10, 2015, followed by physical CD and LP releases on March 31 and April 21, respectively. The album received positive reviews with praise directed on Vreeland's composition and the influence of classical horror scores blending with electronic and synth music. It has been regarded as one of the best horror film scores.
