Far from the usual music artist of one quick hit and a dozen similar-sounding song attempts, Johnnie Gee Griffing brings artistry and originality to this eclectic creative endeavor. Having scored soundtracks for the popular comic book-based live-action films of the Paula Peril series over a span of many years, he decided to go back to the original music to reimagine the compositions and augment them with supporting musicians performing his songs alongside him, resulting in this corresponding 20-track album. This collection is one of the most moving and filmic works of art I have ever listened to. It is worth every second, with every tune perfectly capturing the essence and narrative born of the Paula Peril series!

“Big City” revels in its definite sense of cinematic allure. When we talk about variety, this track certainly fits the bill. The orthodox conga, bongo, and drums meld graciously with the spatial intimacy of the electric and bass guitars, transporting listeners to another realm. The melodies grab you by the ear and refuse to let go until the tune concludes. The track also features an unforgettable rhythmic arrangement.

“The Altar” is a delicious blend of the string and brass components over a mellow concoction of the darbuka, timpani, and conga. This tune has an inescapable filmic thrill and is transcendental as well. The patient buildup builds anticipation, which is released the more the song progresses.

“Adrenaline” lives up to its title; it is fast-paced with a scintillating blend of string components, djembe, and electric guitar, providing both the epinephrine flight response its title promises and the immersive escapism of finely curated, consistently unique melodies.

“Funkystruck” has an irresistible, funky vibe that allures like a magnet. The soundscape is chill and still exudes those foot-tapping retro vibes, making this tune a delight for the ears. This tune is also brimming with virtuosic guitar techniques and awe-inspiring musicianship. The guitar picking is quite simply impeccable, blending delectably with the string components to take a listener to a feel-good dreamland!

Having listened to “Trapped in the Flames” several times, I am actually convinced that it wouldn’t feel out of place in a James Bond film. The percussion from the timpani and drums allows for a consistently rhythmic and beautifully haunting arrangement, whereas the string instruments spread delightful melodies all around. This is the kind of soundtrack that takes up residence in your mind and stays planted there for the rest of the day!

“Peril Ahead” steadily and unhurriedly builds before the full sound is unleashed, featuring ear-catching percussion from Darbuka, timpani, and drums. The electric and bass guitars add depth and rhythm to the arrangement, and the violin and synth add elegance and crystal-clear polish. This tune unveils its narrative—a fusion of rhythm and tension, inspired by the intricacy of a live-action scene. As you listen, imagine yourself in the midst of that very moment—subdued yet intense, a melody of shadows and beats!

“Unanswered Questions” has such a mellow production thanks to the acoustic guitar and piano foundation. The melodies are heart-touching, and that impressive blend of rhythm and melody is actually relaxing, which is in stunning contrast to the title of the song!

“Truthseeker” is heavily compressed with that blend of string and brass components, backed by a cinematic rhythmic flow perfectly capturing what Johnnie intended with this soundtrack. The interplay between the instruments adds depth and complexity to the composition, making it a truly immersive experience.

In “Midnight Whistle”, the percussion creates a cloud of the atmosphere within the track. The chimes go in and out, consequently obscuring and accentuating the other elements. The shape of this piece is defined by the cello line, a stable element from which the rest of the instrumentation can wander. This track blurs the line between instrumentation as well as between reality and imagination. Johnnie creates a mysterious allure on this track, reminiscent of impressionist works of music!

Needless to say, the whole project, “Paula Peril Ultimate Soundtrack Collection” feels like something you’d want to listen to. Now that your musical curiosity has been piqued, how about you delve deep into this over-42-minute cathartic listening experience? You’ll be glad you did!
