WHALE HD Re-Release featuring Shanks and the Dreamers

Before MIRS existed, there was SHANKS AND THE DREAMERS. Two records and a handful of film scores. One of them was for the Amir Motlagh directed feature film, WHALE

WHALE just got an HD re-release and is available on Vimeo on Demand and many other digital platforms soon to follow (original SD version on Amazon until later this week).

Amir Motlagh's feature film MAN is up for pre-order

MIRS composed one track (Hafiz Drinks) for Amir Motlagh's new feature film MAN, which is now up for pre-order on Vimeo. Grab a copy! The film officially releases on July 27th, 2018.

The score releases shortly after with original music from Chicago artist Stephen Holliger (SwimIgnorantFire) and MIRS.

About the film: MAN is a vertité-style day-in-the-life story about a computer programmer who lives a secluded existence in L.A.'s Laurel Canyon. His sole real-life companions are his two dogs; everyone else--friends, colleagues, family--he only connects with through technological mediation, via phones and computers.

"Three Worlds" teaser trailer goes live!

This 2018 feature film written & directed by Amir Motlagh features one MIRS track. We're stoked to see it finally make its way into the public sphere.  

The score you hear was composed by Julian DW Brink. You might not know the name now, but in time, you will.

Three Worlds (2018) is a psychological science fiction drama that explores the three lives, or 'worlds,' of a man who undergoes an experiment that triggers haunting memories and alternate life 'memories.
