This week I have three music cues to share with you, in a sneaky indirect way. They’re embedded in my recent interview with Massively.com, specifically in Justin Olivetti’s “Jukebox Heroes” blog, where I discuss my music for Hex: Shards of Fate. Enjoy!
Every now and then I get to have fun doing something like this.

The 2002 film Home Room featured Erika Christensen and Busy Philips as survivors of a school shooting who become unlikely friends. The end credits music for the film, presented here in extended form, is a trio for piano, cello, and alto flute.

This cue from the film Against Time is one of my favorites, doubtless because the scene had just about everything a film composer could ask for. (Tears, father-son bonding, and baseball.) I’m indebted to the Budapest Film Orchestra string section for a particularly lovely performance.

This week’s selection is some 40s-esque big band swing with an impish clarinet solo in the Benny Goodman / Artie Shaw tradition. (I wish I remembered who performed it. Public service announcement: annotate your soloists!)
In the accompanying film scene, a group of feisty seniors goes on a shopping spree at Guitar Center – which hopefully explains the cue’s seemingly anachronistic guitar solos.
