about

The soundtrack of the documentary feature film "A Captain Unafraid" was woven together by myself, Charlie O’ Brien, and boom operator and all round “soundman” William Kemp. Our film was shot in Cuba, Ireland and the U.S. over the last 3 years. A Captain Unafraid tells the story of 19th Century filibuster and adventurer-Captain “Dynamite” Johnny O’ Brien. Johnny was, in many ways, the quintessential rebel without a cause, that is, until he found his cause in the late 19th century Cuban War Of Independence.

The soundtrack was recorded in “Trouble Or Fortune Studios”-a small room in Killarney town. What you will hear is the emotions that came through us as we attempted to sail miles in land, on an ocean of sound with Dynamite John. Many songs were made up and recorded on the spot; others were honed over weeks and months. We made sound waves and drones, loud ullagones. We tortured guitars, belted banjos, flaked drums as we tried to delve back into the soul of the man they call "Dynamite” John.

As producer and director of “A Captain Unafraid” I've been hacking away diligently through the overgrowth of a Cuban jungle in search of Irish islands, circling back to Manhattan’s East River down again to San Juan, Cienfuegos. Aerial drones have even been fired up over the lake district of Cavan in forays in search of Dynamite John’s ghost.

Myself and William Kemp created most all the sounds which accompany this historical tale. The film itself was completed last December; the soundtrack is now being released on Cd and digital download.
Bain sult!
