Elfman’s score for the new Gus van Sant film, DEAD MAN’S WIRE, has been put up on the composer’s own site at https://www.dannyelfman.com/.
Not terribly exciting. Minimal instruments, no themes. Lots of percussion, some piano, some strings, HARP, a contrabass.Some of it sounds like an unplugged version of DEAD PRESIDENTS, although not on that level, of course. But still, better than some of those bombastic affairs he’s done in recent years.
I wonder if this means it will get no soundtrack release, neither digital nor physical. Now that he’s put it up on his own site, I mean.
