All right, well I’ve been working on the music for the film. I’ve actually been modeling a lot of stuff for this film after The Social Network, because I think the two are trying to make some of the same points and they will therefore be stylistically similar. A couple weeks ago I downloaded the soundtrack for The Social Network and gave it a listen. One of the songs, a “remix” I guess of “In the Hall of the Mountain King” gave me some inspiration and I took that to my keyboard. The film takes place in the minutes leading up to midnight, and so I started playing “Moonlight Sonata” in this weird synth. I messed around with it for a couple hours and realized this would be the song to play over the title sequence.
Next I decided to duplicate my success by “remixing” The Turkish March. It came out dance-like so I decided to lengthen it and play the song during the girl’s sleepover scene in the film. Over the next couple days, I continued to mess around with various electronic sounds and that has resulted in about twenty minutes of music, that I’ve linked to below. Please check it out and comment on this post, I’d love to hear what you think!
