    LOL - snap!!!

    Politics aside, my point was that we got a LOT of great coverage of the session - which was the last one at Paramount - so do check out the video and stuff.

    No worries, Dan, just couldn't pass up the opportunity to get political again. wink

    That theme is very elegiac, and I was reminded of Westwing...not sure why. Maybe the tempo and instrumentation. Quite possibly it was just the name that invoked the association. smile

    Great stuff Dan. Thanks.

    Blake's theme is very nice, not typically Americana (which is good), but has its own character. Very grand orchestral passage with a nice expansive melody to match.

    Earlier this summer, composer Blake Neely recorded the music for Life as We Know It, the feature film debut for Greg Berlanti. Neely, who has provided music for most of Berlanti's television projects, conducted his score for the film at the Eastwood Scoring Stage at Warner Brothers, and ScoringSessions.com is pleased to bring our readers the exclusive photos from the session!

  1. I recommend everyone take a listen at the clips of Blake Neely's score for a new documentary Space Shuttle Columbia: Mission of Hope:

    I am glad that I came across this one!

    BTW, a horrible piece of artwork for such a beautiful score (it's Neely's company/label style I think).

    Neely's RESURRECTION, from this year's abc show, is very beautiful too; restrained, melancholic, wholly orchestral with piano and strings prominent. Check it out.

    Love Maintitles. It's full of Wanders.
