Re-Imagined Soundtracks | D.O.A.

This cue (Sleep Deprivation) was originally written to be a “lab investigation” type cue, but for me there was also a feeling of forward movement. So, when I was looking for footage that might work as a pairing, I thought of D.O.A. and this long walk down the hall.

Still one of the best movie openings ever. The intro starts jarringly, instantly pulling you in… and though the music is perhaps too “groovy modern” for this particular film…, I had to use it anyways because the timing at the end was just perfect!! 🙂

About the 'Re-imagined Soundtracks' Project:  An ever expanding set of video examples for my compositions.   For all of these, the music was created first and then I sought out a film clip that might reasonably connect with what I was imagining and edited them together.   Obviously, the videos are not mine and are only being used as scoring portfolio examples.
