Julian Angel – Sounds Of Action

Julian Angel is the multi-instrumental artist rated “Stripper Rock” focussing on music for action scenes. The Stripper Rock term, as stated in an album review, is based on the furious mix of rock guitars and slamming grooves featured on his “Choreography Sucks” album. Growing up on both rock and roll and black music Julian soon developed a fondness for cross-genre experiments, however, without ever losing a clear musical basis. 

With his Sounds Of Action collection Julian Angel has written a string of tracks catering to the action niche in film and television. Dominated by uptempo rhythms and loud guitars Julian’s sound is an ideal score for car chases, extreme sports and racing scenes. But the cross-genre affinity comes in again as he doesn’t stick with just one style and presents anything from acoustic, pop and r&b over lounge-style music down to traditional blues while always holding up the “action” banner. 

Julian Angel has released two solo albums, wrote a small summer hit in the Netherlands and was nominated for German rock awards as best guitarist in 2001 – hasn’t applied again since…
