On the Score
Standard Userer
Tune in to a new edition of the composer audio interview show On the Score at Filmmusicmag.com, as DEATH RACE composer Paul Haslinger and director-writer Paul W.S. Anderson talk about putting pedal to the metal for this brutally rocking soundtrack. It's a look into the creative process that fans of propulsive scoring won't want to miss at www.filmmusicmag.com, or go to:
http://www.filmmusicmag.com/?p=1783Then stay tuned for our archived shows, which feature composer Danny Elfman (HELLBOY II), Trevor Rabin (GET SMART) and Ramin Djawadi (IRON MAN). They're the kind of excusive interviews that you'll only find at On the Score.
Thanks for listening!

Is it funny that Anderson and Haslinger wanted to create a new sound and have an unconventional score, but wound up doing exactly what was expected for a film like this? Whats the difference between this score and most of Trevor Rabin's work? (Gone in 60 Seconds, The One)It also would have been interesting to hear about how it wound up on the Intrada label...which was unexpected to me. And how did that 12 min final race that they both cheer about, and ultimatly got Haslinger the job wind up as a 4 min track on the CD?

I'm not sure I like the dialogue on the score.... Also the album seems to have a different mix than the film version, with more electronics and synth strings instead of the live strings.[Message edited by dgoldwas on 08-21-2008]

I thought it was quite surprising in the first place to see Intrada enter Lakeshore Records territory...mc

Yeah, I think I might skip this now as I can't imagine the dialogue from this movie helping out the album... at all...

New sound my a$$. Listen to 20.Gonzalez from MAN ON FIRE (HARRY GREGSON WILLIMAMS) (2004) and then the "death race main titles" (2nd track) from this. posted 08-22-2008 01:16 PM PT (US) Old Infopop Software by UBB
