Picnic at Hanging Rock is an Australian film from 1975, directed by Peter Weir. It is a wonderfully ominous, atmospheric piece of (Australian) folk horror.
Stunning visuals aside, the soundtrack sets the tone for the film and has the same haunting quality in places. Romanian pan pipes sit alongside classical pieces and two slightly experimental original compositions from Bruce Smeaton.
The soundtrack has never had a commercial release.

Thanks so much for this. It's a crime there's no official soundtrack.

Thanks for that, especially the bruce smeaton. I knew a woman who told me about hanging out with peter weir at the cannes festival publicising the film. They drove around cannes in a vw beetle with a loudspeaker playing out zamfir's spooky pipes to the crowds. otherworldly.
