Hi Intrada-ites
It's a plethorda of soundtrack pinata pieces!
First off, tune into a new edition of On the Score at Filmmusicmag.com, as composer-editor JOHN OTTMAN and director BRYAN SINGER talk about their newest collaboration on VALKYRIE. It's a free-wheeling discusion on a conspiracy of creativity that's fueled both men from THE USUAL SUSPECTS to their most powerful thriller yet, the kind of insightful conversation you'll only hear at On the Score. Check out our home page, or go to:

Then stay tuned for our archived interviews, which include Clint Mansell (THE WRESTLER), Jon Brion (SYNEDOCHE N.Y.), Tence Blanchard (THE MIRACLE AT ST. ANNA) and composer Paul Haslinger and director Paul W.S. Anderson (DEATH RACE).
Thanks again for your listenership, as On the Score marks its third year delivering exclusive composer interviews. Cool things are definitely ahead for our show (as well as our past programs), especially thanks to Mark Northam our new sponsor La La Land Records.
Secondly, you can read my props to William Ross' wonderful DESPEREAUX score and 9 TO 5 in my December What iF soundtrack picks at:
