I'm going to go the the mix today for the Gold Museum documentary I cut a few months ago.
I recommended the composer without ever having worked with him and he's been very discreet about giving us previews of his music, as in...nothing! It's the first time I decided to use someone because I had a good feeling about him, but he's a friend of a friend and had left a lucrative dental practice to write music for films, and in that way I am an "enabler" and want to help people in some way to accomplish what is in their hearts to do, art-wise.
He had a nice demo, but that's very different from underscoring. I've worked with many composers who thought their music should always be center stage, wich doesn't work for a film like this. This is often the mark of inexperience---meaning they haven't been beaten into submission enough to understand that the score should serve the purposes of the film.
I'm hoping this guy is already there, but it's still a bit scary. And I hope to report that I was pleasantly surprised and pleased!
