seems like a weird choice
weird choice, have you listened to his score for World’s End, he’s perfect!!!
It’s a very abstract score, and Steve Price is an interesting newcomer. There is a creepy ambient vibe to the score that pretty much serves what’s required. It will be interesting where he he will go in the future.
Was Benjamin Franklin’s “Harmonica” used in the musical arrangements. I thought I saw one in a TV interview with the Producer.
