Alexandre Desplat's score to GODZILLA is "done and dusted"--- at least as to the score's recording! Wonderful times with AD and the L.A. scoring musicians ( about a 102 of them-- perhaps the largest orchestra EVER at MGM(Sony) PLUS an 80 voice choir) who performed Desplat's score brilliantly.
On the the soundtrack from Watertower Records you will be hearing AD's music and the LA musicians ROAR. With this score, AD proves he's as big an "energy drink" as any of the Hollywood "super composers"-- even if his vocabulary is distinctly his- perhaps refreshingly so, for some. Happy to be "working at home"-- kudos to Dennis Sands, Belinda Broughton, Adam Michalak, Dimitrie Leivici. Eric Swanson, and my associates Clifford J. Tasner, Jay Duerr, Chad Cannon, and my wife Nan Schwartz for their help in realizing, for the orchestra, 2 hours of music. Special thanks to the Godfather of the MGM/Sony lot Lee Hinton for making the lot a home. Great gratitude to all at WB--- Paul Broucek in particular.
As a professional, it gets no better than working with Desplat ( and Lee!). If your job is to "make music"- than AD is the "go to guy" (unless you're talking JW)
! Hope AD returns to LA. It was a blast. Now on to something even more exciting--- at least for me...
