PostScore Music

About us

It's really not about us.

It's about the picture.   It's about finding the tone, riding the wave of emotion or action, does it need energy or space.   Should it feel real, or is it a fantasy?   Do we want the viewer / listener on edge or lulled, slammed or calmed, what kind of ride is it?   Is there a place or a time to be evoked?   Is it the Ohio River valley in 1842, an LA rave today, or Vienna, Morocco, Katmandu, or your neighbor's driveway?   You have a vision, the picture, dialog and narration captured most of it, but ..... what's missing?   Does it need music, at all?   What does your gut say?   What does the client want?

The answers to these questions are as varied as the project.   Finding the answers and executing them in an elegant, energetic and sensitive way is an art. At PostScore Music, we practice that art.   Here you will find sensitive, talented and energetic people with rich resources to draw on, and an uncanny ability to meet even the most demanding deadlines.

We combine youth and experience in a way that really 'gets' the varied cultures of our time.   Experience is important, both for the wisdom and perspective it offers, as well as the assurance that you can feel, knowing the job will get done -   on time - on budget - on message.   Youth is important, ......... well youth pretty much speaks for itself.

PostScore Music is really about you, about completing your vision, making your job a little easier, bringing out the most in your film, or commercial or TV show.   So, welcome to PostScore Music.   But wherever you go for your music, may your results be powerful and your process a blast.
