The Haunting of Hill House Free download on SoundCloud. I loved this Netflix series from writer/director Mike Flanagan. The music by The Newton Brothers almost acts like an additional character (or ghost). If you’ve seen the series, you’ll agree the music and film are inextricably […]

Isolated System Free download  on SoundCloud. I love this instrumental piece by Muse. It worked perfectly as the theme song for Brad Pitt’s World War Z in 2013. That was a great movie and it’s unfortunate that Paramount shelved the sequel just last month due […]

Lily’s Theme Free download on SoundCloud. Lily’s Theme, by composer Alexandre Desplat, is one of the most poignant pieces of music from the Harry Potter films. This was was one of the first songs I ever posted — way back in 2011. It was time […]

Free Download on SoundCloud My 2019 Oscar prediction If you’re mildly interested in the Oscars — Best Score is only a competition between: If Beale Street Could Talk (Nicholas Britell) and Isle of Dogs (Alexandre Desplat). Desplat won last year for, The Shape of Water, […]

Bird Box Free Download on SoundCloud I just watched Bird Box (Netflix) and I loved it. Obviously the film draws comparisons to The Happening and A Quiet Place but it still feels highly original. The performances in Bird Box are really…really strong — and the […]

Glass Free download on SoundCloud. Having been a fan of Unbreakable from way back, I’m super excited to see Glass. M. Night Shyamalan fans can take solace that Unbreakable was reviewed just as poorly when it came out, but over time (when people actually saw […]

Sendero Free Download on Soundcloud I originally posed this song in 2012, but I’m much better at sound quality now and wanted to update Sendero (Path) for 2018. I love how Gustavo Santaolalla stays tight to the beat, almost like fingerstyle funk. As per usual, […]

Welcome To Marwen Free download on SoundCloud. Alan Silvestri (The Polar Express, Avengers) has always been one of my favorite A-list composers. The music from Welcome to Marwen is just beautiful. I love the transition at 0:55 of the video. Although I haven’t seen the […]
