MovieScore Media Releases SEPARATE, Spooky Drama Score by Brent Detar
“Although it’s wrapped in the guise of a scary movie, SEPARATION is really a film about family,” points out composer Brett Detar. “At it’s core it’s the story of a daughter, a mother, and a father: 3 humans. For this reason I chose to make the main musical theme just three notes. No matter what else happens with the music and sound design elements of the score it always returns to those same three simple notes as a reminder of the connection between the three family members. Sometimes these notes appear as a high piano, while at other times I used strings or woodwinds. Perhaps most often, though, it appears as human voices.

In an interview with theverge.com, Lotus explained that, while preparing the film’s musical score, he mostly knew what he didn’t want the show to sound like. “I knew that people were going to be like ‘Oh, Flying Lotus is involved, he’s going to do a hip-hop thing, so it’s going to be like AFRO SAMURAI, it’s going to be like SAMURAI CHAMPLOO, maybe it’ll be like COWBOY BEBOP if he does a jazz thing,’” he told theverge’s writer Andrew Webster. “I… wanted to do something that’d surprise me, and be true to what I’m looking at.”

In this score I am trying to emphasize the insanity of Godzilla and the humanity of Kong. In the spirit of the film, it was fun to get my mad scientist coat on and make some monstrous sounds!”

The score is, at times, fully electronic, and at other times fully orchestral. It included many global elements, rock and even trap. And it was all written during Covid, so it was an incredibly hands on, isolated and intense experience; and I think that comes out in the score…”

Score Album Review: WONDER WOMAN 1984
Hans Zimmer/WaterTower Music – digital
Hans Zimmer’s score to WONDER WOMAN 1984 is full to the brim with bright, heroic, rousing orchestral themes, and those who have complained about too many drones in recent years are going to be very surprised at the melodic richness of this new superhero score [as for me (I willingly digress) I’ll go on record as having found much to treasure in the music of DUNKIRK and other of Zimmer’s tonally oriented scores]. WONDER WOMAN 1984, logically enough, fast forwards from the 1940s of Patty Jenkins’ 2017 WONDER WOMAN film as circumstances in 1984 find her riding lightning across the sky, donning wings of gold, and chasing a dream while in pursuit of two new formidable foes: ruthless what-do-you-wish businessman Maxwell Lord and co-worker-cum-nemesis, Cheetah.

SCOOB! Original Motion Picture Score Now Available on WaterTower Music – Score by Tom Holkenborg
“This isn’t a traditional score. It’s really out there—with nods to industrial, hip-hop, and even gabber.

We used players on surf guitars and Hammond organs, and it was a great chance for me to get my hands dirty on the bass guitar and iconic drum machines, like the Emulator SP1200. I had a blast working on this!”
