24 Hour Party People- Official Soundtrack

Author: Warner
Tuesday, April 2, 2002
The story of '24 Hour Party People' is a blackly comic tale of music, sex, drugs, excess and larger-than-life characters (Shaun Ryder and Tony Wilson anyone-) that gave birth to some of the greatest bands in the world (Joy Division, New Order, Happy Mondays, the list goes on…), the most famous nightclub in the world (The Hacienda) and transformed Manchester from a dour, drizzle soaked, northern town to the most vibrant city in the world.

Directed by Michael Winterbottom, 24 Hour Party People, the film, stars the likes of Steve Coogan, John Simm and Ralph Little but the real stars are the bands, artists and acts that soundtracked the whole affair. From the initial sneer of the Sex Pistols gig at Manchester's Free Trade Hall in front of just 42 people to the rise and rise of New Order and Happy Mondays and the chemical haze of end-of-night Hacienda favourites like 'Pacific' and 'Voodoo Ray' plus brand new Chemical Brothers-produced New Order single 'Here To Stay', '24 Hour Party People- the OST' documents the beginning, end and messily hedonistic middle of a musical era.
