About three years ago, Forbes first hinted at a true crime documentary in the making with an unparalleled level of anticipation. ‘House Invasion’ was set to be the latest offering from ‘Tiger King’s original director and producer, JT Barnett, and the Netflix sensation himself, Joe Exotic. Given the preceding body of work from this dynamic duo, the expectations from ‘House Invasion’ have been sky-high. After all, ‘Tiger King’ was a sensation that swept cultural conversations and garnered a whopping six Emmy nominations.
The tale became even more intriguing when news broke that ‘House Invasion’ would revolve around an eerie event that unfolded in the Mallard Crossing at St. Matthews apartment of Jonathan Hay. While working on a crisis management situation with the hip-hop superstar Drake, Hay was the victim of an armed invasion, a chilling sequence that serves as the crux of this eagerly awaited docuseries.
Who better to help distribute the sonic landscape to this harrowing tale than Fat Beats Records? The New York-based iconic record label launched almost three decades ago and has just distributed the ‘House Invasion: Original Soundtrack Album.’ The album features a vibrant selection of tracks that directly draw inspiration from the events of the upcoming docuseries.
In this one-of-a-kind project, Jonathan Hay, JT Barnett, Joe Exotic, and Techrow have collaborated to create a soundtrack that is as genre-defying as it is engrossing. It is an audacious undertaking that displays an awe-inspiring cross-section of sounds, right from the somber notes of dark electronic music to the invigorating beats of house music. It does not stop there, though—the soundtrack incorporates contemporary jazz songs that manage to strike a delicate balance amidst the various sonic elements at play.
