Danny Bensi and Saunder Jurriaans, recently placed amongst On The Rise 2014: 12 Film Composers To Watch, are multi-instrumentalists and classically trained musicians. Bensi is an internationally raised cellist and composer, while the mostly self-taught Jurriaans (“I had a few classical guitar lessons”) dropped out of the Rhode Island School of Design and, after playing with a few pick-up bands and working some graphic construction jobs, reconnected with high school friend Bensi, with whom he formed the acclaimed
rock band Priestbird. The band spent about six years recording (they have released five albums) and touring, evolving what can only be described as the ‘dramatic, cinematic’ blend of music to which both Bensi and Jurriaans are naturally attracted. By 2010, Priestbird had run its course, but the pair continued to hone their skills.

September 30, 2014 Film Music Daily Staff 2 Comments

Garth Stevenson’s score seems to take its cues directly from nature, undulating in sync with the film’s shifting rhythms.
–Hollywood Reporter

Available now: Tracks (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), original music by Garth Stevenson. Stevenson, a classically trained and renowned double bassist delivers a score which follows the inner struggle and emotional journey of Robyn Davidson, a young woman who defied convention in 1977 to embark on a 1,700-mile personal odyssey across the Australia Outback (from Alice Springs to the Indian Ocean).

Tracks, the film, is based on the inspiring real life adventure of Robyn Davidson (played by Mia Wasikowska) who traversed across the Australian Outback in 1977, over 1,700 miles (from Alice Springs to the Indian Ocean) on a personal trek. Much of the journey was documented by National Geographic Photographer Rick Smolan (played by Adam Driver), who discovered her while on assignment. The resulting photographs and Davidson’s subsequent memoir became a worldwide sensation, and forms the basis of the film.

#44 Gamer
“I’ve Got You Under My Skin” by Sammy Davis Jr.
Gamer (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)

Download The Album: iTunes | Buy CD

Set to the utterly appropriate sounds of Sammy Davis Jr.’s rendition of the Cole Porter standard “I’ve Got You Under My Skin,” Castle and his minions boogie and bop like refuges from the creepiest Busby Berkeley film ever made, then break formation to test Kable in hand-to-hand combat. Hall dances like a puppet on strings, playing up the themes of control inherent not only in gaming, but also in fight and dance choreography.

#18 Buffalo ’66
“Heart Of The Sunrise” by Yes
Buffalo ’66 (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)

Download The Album: iTunes (UK Only) | Buy CD

To the minor extent that Vincent Gallo’s directorial debut has a plot, it involves his character, Billy, seeking revenge on the Buffalo Bills placekicker whose missed field-goal attempt ostensibly ruined Billy’s life. Near the end of the film, Billy finally shows up at the strip club owned by the retired player, gun in hand. Rather than accompany this surreally staged, grotesquely violent scene with music that might actually be heard in a strip club, or even music that would conventionally heighten the intensity of a shootout, Gallo chooses—yes!—Yes. Not only does the track’s sinuous groove provide plenty of offbeat tension as Billy walks in, it thrillingly shifts into high gear at the precise moment that he spots his victim. Prog kill! —Mike D’Angelo

Rudderless Soundtrack Available Tomorrow Ft. Billy Crudup, Anton Yelchin, Ben Kweller & Selena Gomez, Original Score By Eef Barzelay

September 29, 2014 Film Music Daily Staff

So let it be known throughout the land: William H. Macy has balls of steel. In addition to juggling a busy, successful film and television career, he’s taken on a new role — filmmaker. His first feature film, “Rudderless”, is a poignant story that explores finding happiness in the midst of loss and pain. And you know what? It’s really damn good. –The Playlist

The highly anticipated soundtrack to Rudderless is available tomorrow on iTunes. In William H. Macy’s directorial debut, Billy Crudup plays Sam, a former high-profile advertising executive whose life is torn apart by the sudden death of his son. Living off the grid on a docked sailboat, he wastes away his days while drowning his pain in alcohol. When Sam discovers a box filled with his son’s demo tapes and lyrics, his own child’s musical talent is a revelation for him, a grieving father yearning to reconnect with his son. He begins to explore his son’s unknown talent, obsessively learning his songs, until one day he decides to play one of them at a local bar. The song captivates Quentin, a young musician (Anton Yelchin) in the audience, and the two unlikely friends decide to form a rock ‘n’ roll band called Rudderless that becomes surprisingly popular and revitalizes both of their lives.
