The score can really make or break a film, especially if it’s one that requires atmosphere and tension. Want a taste of what’s in store for viewers of Nimrod Antal’s upcoming Predators and listeners of John Debney’s spine-tingling score for the flick? Look no further!
Academy Award nominated composer John Debney keeps his fans in tune via @JohnDebney on Twitter and his own YouTube channel, and below is a peek inside one of his Predators scoring sessions on the Fox scoring stage. Predators marks Debney’s fifth collaboration with the film’s producer Robert Rodriguez, and the score will be available through La La Land Records on July 20.
Debney, who was honored to be part of the Predators franchise, said, “When I first learned that Robert Rodriguez and Fox studios were planning a re-boot of one of my favorite films of all time, ‘Predator,’ I was thrilled. Having worked with Robert on four films previously, I knew that if anyone could do justice to a remake such as this, it would be Robert. Learning that Nimrod Antal was going to be the director, I was doubly thrilled and knew I had to be a part of this one.” He recorded many custom sounds and instruments, including Tibetan long horns to create squeals and screams. He manipulated metal scrapes and ethnic percussion to highlight the advanced yet brutal primitive quality of the Predators and their world.
