Cue of the Week: Flying From Arcadia

One of the more fun cues from The F-Zone, this music accompanied an air flight montage over some beautiful scenery and, ultimately, to a llama farm. (Yes, the old hero-visits-llama-farm-by-air cliche.) The plane, a small Cessena-like affair, was not only flown by built by the film's writer and lead actor.

By the way, the Arcadia in the title refers to the municipality north of Pasadena rather than the idyllic city in ancient Greece.

Cue of the Week: HB Groove

Taking a brief break from the piano-and-accordion music, here's one of my cues from the thriller feature HellBent. Thus music's been given a bit of a contemporary remix. (At least, contemporary as of this particular moment in cultural history. In about two years it will become "quaint".)

Guitarwork by the ever-talented Tom Strahle.

Cue of the Week: The Uninvited Guest

Here's the next cue in the Audrey and Einstein series, a pianistic waltz that underscores a moment of impish comedy. Sadly, the impish comedy isn't easily conveyed in short text summaries, but hopefully the music will stimulate your imagination to compensate.

Cue of the Week: Audrey and Einstein Main Title

Here's the main theme from Audrey & Einstein, the same film featured in last week's cue. The stylish accordion playing comes courtesy of Bear McCreary, talented composer of the music for the new Battlestar Galactica series.
