    EDWARD SCISSORHANDS by Danny Elfman

    Amazing!! So deep, thank you! Love your take on the arrangements and instrument choice. He’s so brilliant at utilizing an almost blatantly incorrect choice of instrument at times and completely makes it his own. Now, you couldn’t imagine anything else in its stead :rainbow-mushroom:

    EDWARD SCISSORHANDS by Danny Elfman

    :syngates: Yo family! Alright, this completes my Danny Elfman trifecta. Edward Scissorhands is quite possibly the most touching collection of music I’ve ever heard. I walked down the aisle to Ice Dance at my wedding. The flawless execution of the boys choir - I’ve read both that he used...

    BEETLEJUICE, by Danny Elfman

    Great question. Back in the day, Beetlejuice easily but now I have such great respect for Batman’s composition. It’s a masterpiece without leaning on novelty.

    BEETLEJUICE, by Danny Elfman

    :syngates: Yo Family! I couldn’t cheat the public of my favorite Elfman score in existence. Beetlejuice epitomizes what Danny Elfman means to me. This was Jimmy’s favorite Elfman work as well. The main theme is brilliant and still gives me goosebumps EVERY single time I hear it. This is quite...

    BATMAN by Danny Elfman

    I wish I could say I did more but it was mainly feedbacky ambient stuff. I showed up with a guitar and basically shoved it into the studio speakers for a few hours to make some weird noises. I was never called back.

    BATMAN by Danny Elfman

    :syngates:Yo Family! This month’s #AOTM is a special one. I went with one of my favorite soundtracks by the master himself, Danny Elfman, in this dark epic, Batman.

    String tension and playing fast

    10-52’s has always been my jam. Light top, heavy bottom(refraining from teenage joke) is what they’re called if u haven’t heard of em. They do well in heavier music and lower tunings. Can I get an upvote mother fuckers??

    THE ROYAL SCAM by Steely Dan

    :syngates:Yo Family! This months #AOTM rec is quite possibly the most awe inspiring record songwriting wise that I’ve ever heard. Most of you know that The Beatles are my favorite songwriters of all time but Steely Dan are the most superior writers of complex harmony(chord changes simply put)...
