Ransom

Ransom is a 1996 action-thriller film directed by Ron Howard. Half of the soundtrack is James Horner's motion picture score, while the other half is Billy Corgan with Matt Walker on drums. All songs are instrumental. Corgan is credited in the movie as "Kidnapper's Boom Box Music".

Addicted to Noise commented that the "solo sounds crafted by Corgan are perfect for the film."

Billy Corgan brought a powerfully disturbing urgency to the music that our kidnappers listen to throughout the ordeal. It was great to have someone with such vision help us musically shape these scenes, instead of the usual series of unrelated songs by different artists. Billy's complete understanding of our movie and his wide range of musical styles made him an inspired choice. Beside that, I just got a big kick out of working with him.
