Very exciting, looking forward to this! Good show on the 'new time' announcement, if purely for selfish reasons - the
announcements came at the end of the workday, so it's nice to go out on a 'good note'

INTRADA Announces: COLLATERAL Composed by JAMES NEWTON HOWARD INTRADA Special Collection Vol. 352 For the 2004 Paramount Pictures Collateral, composer James Newton Howard infused his score with an unusual degree of complexity and architecture. Dark and low-keyed in the first half, edgy and aggressive in the second, Howard adds to the ever-tightening narrative structure of the film by introducing his music in deceptively simple strokes, primarily through lower synthesizer and string colors. As the taut script and pace develop, Howard brings weight to his colors by adding low brass almost imperceptibly. While most of the standard orchestra is present to meld with the electronic keyboards, trumpets are omitted, leaving only French horns and trombones in the brass, adding to the grim texture of the music. Howard’s vivid, thundering percussion figures take center stage in a virtuoso display. Howard enlisted a murderer’s row of guitar players and “sound conceptualists” to create a riotous palette of guitar timbres and effects to paint with, including veteran session musician Michael Landau, composer Charlie Clouser, Page Hamilton of the band Helmet, and scoring stage regular George Doering. Howard recorded about 50 minutes of music for the film—but in the end, only 15 minutes were used (eight of which made it onto the original soundtrack album previously released). Intrada brings this entire score to CD for the first time assembled from the the two-track digital session “print” take rolls archived both on disc and tape (DAT), courtesy Paramount Pictures. In the film Vincent the hitman, subversively played by Tom Cruise, "hires" cabbie Max (Jamie Foxx) for a night of seemingly mysterious errands, dragging Max deeper and more reluctantly into the violent deeds as everything becomes unhinged.

Thank you very much!! Now I'm wondering if Antonio Pinto and Tom Rothrock also composed a lot of music not used in the finished film. |

Got this, at last (knew it was "winter music", so I held out!), and wanted to thank you for tackling this somewhat unusual project. It's a terrific package - the liners are worth admission (neo-Mahler haha!), just a classy package all around. Even the paper stock in the booklet has a different, classier texture & feel! I love slow -burn scores where you have to wade through some perhaps less gripping material to reach 'the reward', so to speak. Good work and composer sounds happy in the interview, so may this lead to more JNH from Intrada! -Sean |
