Tension forward for HBO
Posted: Mon Aug 28, 2017 7:56 am
Hi All,
Recently had the following forwarded for this listing- TENSION-BUILDING INSTRUMENTAL UNDERSCORE CUES are needed by a NON-Exclusive Music Library that’s supplying music to a hit HBO TV show. They’re on the hunt for great Instrumental Cues that can generally match the vibe, style, and serious intensity of these references we got from the library: Sicario Soundtrack - The Border: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tREkYd7B2Fs “Area 51” by Alexandre Desplat: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mFTDNRdjTyE Sicario Soundtrack - The Beast: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hdm5EkaPdeY Please submit well-crafted Instrumental Cues that have a serious tone/mood, yet are somewhat subtle, and can still move a scene forward. If your Cue can add some tension to a scene without being busy or frenetic, you could be in the ballpark! Build your submissions around a simple, focused melodic theme, while adding and subtracting various instruments as it progresses to give your Cue some interest, dynamics, forward movement and to keep it from sounding overly repetitive. TAXI Tip: The examples above are really your best guide for this pitch, but they’re not looking for clones! Your Cues should be approximately 90 seconds long, give or take. Non-faded endings with a natural decay/ring out are recommended. This TV Series has a high standard for the music they use, so please make sure to submit your very best material for this pitch! Broadcast Quality is needed (great sounding home recordings are fine). This Library offers a NON-Exclusive 50/50 deal.
My Version was kind of a Desplat/johansson hybrid..
