Details: Product Description Paul Haslinger Amazon.ca If contemporary Hollywood sometimes seems an industry bent on recycling itself into oblivion, it still manages the occasional welcome genre-tweaking. Writer-director John Stockwell takes one of the last bastions of salty machismo, the surf film, and gives it a distinct surfer grrrl slant. The resulting film's soundtrack eschews its own share of genre clichés--decades of fuzz guitar, OC ska/surf-punk bluster--for a club-savvy mix that veers from the lush, neo-psych edge of Lenny Kravitz's "If I Could Fall in Love" to Beenie Man's and Damian Marley's Jamaican dancehall grooves. But it's the wafting, electronica-infused flourishes of Beth Orton's gorgeous "Daybreaker," Zero 7's R&B-tinged "Destiny," and the moody atmospherics of Doves' "Firesuite" that best catch the intoxicating appeal of a cool, cresting wave. --Jerry McCulley
