I really like his new album with Brian Eno. Off topic, but I feel it needs to be said.
Definitely. Brian Eno is also someone who can really enhance mood with music. He hasn’t done too much major soundtrack work, sadly, even though with his ambient series, he is arguably best fit for the position.
I just saw David Byrne a few nights ago and he was amazing.
heh I love the song you get on Windows XP
“Submitting unrelated musical texts” is likely more a choice by the director.
I want to see David Byrne live c= Talking Heads are great.
I’d like to hear more. and Byrne is a pretty cool name. David Byrne, Gabriel Byrne, Rose Byrne, Eric Byrne.
I’ve never been to NYC but I’ve heard he designed some pretty cool bike racks. Also check out his short film http://www.ubu.com/film/kitchen_byrne.html

I just thought I’d take time to praise the scores of David Byrne and their excellence. He is someone who crafts his work around the motion pictures he scores, rather than simply submitting unrelated musical texts, as has become far too common these days. His score for Bertolucci’s The Last Emperor is a vital element and adds great lengths to the picture.
