Disco Stu 15,495 Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 Randy Newman has scored the upcoming Noah Baumbach film The Meyerowitz Stories. http://filmmusicreporter.com/2017/05/09/randy-newman-scoring-noah-baumbachs-the-meyerowitz-stories/ Quote The movie is based on Brian Selznick’s novel of the same title and revolves around two adult siblings contending with the influence of their aging father. This may not be notable for most people, but as a huge R. Newman fan I'm pretty interested. It's the first non-animated film he's scored in many many years. Doesn't sound like the kind of film that will have a lot in the way of score, but hopefully there's a nice end credits suite or something. It's funny, just yesterday I watched a 2014 interview with Newman on Youtube with this exchange: Quote Interviewer: Any upcoming projects? ...... a film score? Newman: I don't know, I just hope it's not another cartoon, you know, I'm tired [of them] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the part about wanting to score "Meryl Streep looking up for two minutes" or "someone floating around in space." As always, most everything Randy says comes through about 5 layers of irony.

Richard Penna 3,692 Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 If he wanted to do it and M. Night had budget issues, he'd likely lower his fee for a friend - loads of composers have done that. He's got The Nutcracker and Fantastic Beasts 2 on his plate right now. As with Snicket, I'm still going with him not having the schedule for it. But I'm just looking for nice reasons why he hasn't done these projects Maybe he did just not want to do them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leeallen01 2,136 Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 Well damn... I have heard it from JNH himself that he is working on Glass. He said, West is scoring it, but he will be doing something on the film. So there's still hope JNH will perhaps write a suite of his themes for West to use.

DrTenma 116 Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 That's quite disappointing, but @leeallen01 you might be right and maybe JNH is composing some themes and West is making the rest. Although it would be strange not to mention JHN involvement in the movie at this point in postproduction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Stu 15,495 Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 Press release and tease for John Carpenter’s Halloween score. Not much of a tease but what the hey Quote The new soundtrack pays homage to the classic Halloween score that Carpenter composed and recorded in 1978, when he forever changed the course of horror cinema and synthesizer music with his low-budget masterpiece. Several new versions of the iconic main theme serve as the pulse of Green's film, its familiar 5/4 refrain stabbing through the soundtrack like the Shape's knife. The rest of the soundtrack is just as enthralling, incorporating everything from atmospheric synth whooshes to eerie piano-driven pieces to skittering electronic percussion. While the new score was made with a few more resources than Carpenter's famously shoestring original, its musical spirit was preserved." The original is the only soundtrack I love that includes film audio. I think because the music is so simplistic it just works better with the dialogue included Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
