Pieter’s music is sparse, dark, painstakingly well produced, and obviously filmic in its quality, but it’s still Wa brave Hollywood director that hands over the reins of a soundtrack to a relatively unknown composer from Melbourne. But it happened. Pieter Bourke is well known in the ambient fraternity for his project, Soma. His pairing with ex Dead Can Dance vocalist, Lisa Gerrard, led to the moody, and critically acclaimed, Duality album. Then Hollywood heavyweight, Michael Mann, got on the phone asking them to work on his film, The Insider. A Golden Globe nomination followed. Not bad work for a man who only now is deciding that he better trade in his Atari for something that can run Cubase VST. Christopher Holder: So how did the gig for The Insider eventuate? Pieter Bourke: It mainly came about through the Duality album which Lisa and I recorded in 1997. Also, Lisa had worked with Michael Mann when she contributed to the soundtrack for the film, Heat. So there was already a connection there. He approached us to license two pieces off Duality, because at that stage he had Graeme Revell working on the soundscore. Lisa and I had a meeting with Michael in Los Angeles where he gave us a detailed presenta- tion on the film and a copy of the script. When Score a major Hollywood feature film in a studio we returned to Australia we began writing, and based around a Mackie 8-bus, an Akai sampler and initially sent Michael a DAT tape with seven or eight cues which were not synced to any image an Atari running Cubase – and garner a Golden at that stage. He really loved what he heard, so he started sending videos of certain scenes for Globe nomination in the process? Christopher Holder us to work to. After a couple of months work it became obvious that we were becoming the finds out from Pieter Bourke that, yes, it can be done. major composers on the film. So eventually he asked us to relocate to LA to complete the project. CH: In the early stages, I imagine it wasn’t easy doing the work in Melbourne and com- municating across the Pacific. PB: No. But I think the fact that we were initially writing in Lisa’s home studio in Australia without any images was a good thing. A number of main themes were actually developed in that way – the music could ‘breathe’ without being restricted to any image. Once we started receiving video tapes and had everything synced via SMPTE code we developed a system for sending our music ideas to the production company in LA for appraisal and/or approval by Michael PB: Our main sound sources for the project were our Mann. Lisa and I would make a new video tape that Akai samplers. We have a huge library of sounds that we combined the image and dialogue from the original tape know really well which is essential when composing with our musical cue. This would be sent, along with a under a tight schedule. Most of my playing duties were stereo DAT mix of the cue to LA. Once a cue had been on keyboard, dealing with samples.

We used a left/centre/right the skins much – it’s just faster with the samplers. For the panning configuration and kept to this set-up for every project we had my Akai 3200XL, and Lisa bought an Akai cue.

So there’s a lot of tweaking gone on, even though the pieces are very minimal and it sounds like there’s not much happening, there’s a lot of tweaking to get it to sound organic.

EDEN’s debut performance was at the Baden Powell Hotel, Prahran. The band quickly established a local following that saw them perform regularly as a fixture in Melbourne's burgeoning alternative music scene. EDEN’s initial 12 inch EP ‘The Light Between Worlds’ was released in 1990 on Nightshift Records, Scotland. The EP caught the attention of BBC Radio's John Peel who featured tracks on his show, resulting in rapid support of EDEN by The Alternative Press Magazine in the USA. A 7” single version of ‘Searching for Angel’s Hands’ was released by Ultimate Records Australia the same year, broadening EDEN’s growing supporter base through a live appearance on Australia’s national pop music TV series Countdown Revolution. In 1991 EDEN moved to London based label Third Mind Records who continued to grow the band’s profile in Europe and the USA through the 1992 release of their first full length CD ‘Gateway to the Mysteries’ (released in Australia under Elysium/Shock Records). The album was described by the music press as sounding akin to 'the Cocteau Twins had they existed in the 1890s'. In 1993 EDEN joined the roster of Projekt Records, USA releasing the ‘Healingbow’ EP. In 1993, EDEN established a new lineup, Bourke leaving the band as drummer Peter Barrett, keyboardist Paul Machlis, guitarist Tracy Ellerton and bassist Ewan McArthur joined Bowley to form the next iteration of EDEN.

  • Adventures in Film Music Redux Composer Profiles
    Adventures in Film Music Redux - Composer Profiles ADVENTURES IN FILM MUSIC REDUX COMPOSER PROFILES A. R. RAHMAN Elizabeth: The Golden Age A.R. Rahman, in full Allah Rakha Rahman, original name A.S. Dileep Kumar, (born January 6, 1966, Madras [now Chennai], India), Indian composer whose extensive body of work for film and stage earned him the nickname “the Mozart of Madras.” Rahman continued his work for the screen, scoring films for Bollywood and, increasingly, Hollywood. He contributed a song to the soundtrack of Spike Lee’s Inside Man (2006) and co- wrote the score for Elizabeth: The Golden Age (2007). However, his true breakthrough to Western audiences came with Danny Boyle’s rags-to-riches saga Slumdog Millionaire (2008). Rahman’s score, which captured the frenzied pace of life in Mumbai’s underclass, dominated the awards circuit in 2009. He collected a British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA) Award for best music as well as a Golden Globe and an Academy Award for best score. He also won the Academy Award for best song for “Jai Ho,” a Latin-infused dance track that accompanied the film’s closing Bollywood-style dance number. Rahman’s streak continued at the Grammy Awards in 2010, where he collected the prize for best soundtrack and “Jai Ho” was again honoured as best song appearing on a soundtrack. Rahman’s later notable scores included those for the films 127 Hours (2010)—for which he received another Academy Award nomination—and the Hindi-language movies Rockstar (2011), Raanjhanaa (2013), Highway (2014), and Beyond the Clouds (2017).

Lisa also received an Oscar nomination for ‘Gladiator’ along with two further Golden Globe Award nominations for her scores to ‘Ali’ and ‘The Insider’. Lisa’s film work also includes ‘Whale Rider’, a feature which received an Academy Award nomination and garnered Lisa an international award for the score. Her musical journey began in the early 1980s when she and fellow Australian Brendan Perry formed duo ‘Dead Can Dance’. In 2012 the band reunited for a sell-out world tour. With nine albums released between 1984 and 1995, the duo's musical canvas expanded with each release to take in a timeless mix of world-music influences, medieval chants, folk ballads, baroque stylings, Celtic flavours, electronics, samples and anything else that took their fancy. Several solo and collaborative albums were well received and Lisa made a natural progression to composing for films.

Rio Conchos was in many ways a reworking of 1961’s The Comancheros (FSMCD Vol. 2, No. 6, music by Elmer Bernstein), but it lacked the buoyant presence of John Wayne and told a far darker and more nihilistic tale of social outcasts thrown together on a mission to find a hidden community of Apache gun-runners. It was the dawn of a new breed of grittier, more psychologically hon- est westerns, and Jerry Goldsmith was the perfect composer to provide these arid and violent tales with a new musical voice. Goldsmith had already scored several westerns before Rio Conchos, including the acclaimed contemporary west- ern Lonely Are the Brave. But Rio Conchos saw Goldsmith marshal- ing his skills at writing complex yet melodically vibrant action music, with several early highlights of his musical output contained by Jerry Goldsmith within. The composer’s title music is characteristically spare and One-Time Pressing of 3,000 Copies folksy, belying the savage intensity of what is to follow, yet his main theme effortlessly forms the backbone for the score’s violent set- pieces and provides often soothing commentary on the decency and nobility buried beneath the flinty surfaces of the film’s reluc- tant heroes.
