It doesn’t really matter what style of music that we decide for a movie, what matters
is how it affects the drama and how it helps the movie reach its full potential.
Of course I love emptying my entire bag of saucy colors over great scenes,
but when a moment captivates me so much that I leave the score
completely empty, I still feel I’ve done my job as a film composer.
I'm a film composer, but more importantly; I'm a film maker!
