Band member that now do film soundtracks

[AverageJoe]

We all know that Trent Reznor (Nine Inch Nails), Tom Bailey (Thompson Twins) and Clint Mansell (Pop Will Eat itself) have graduated to writing film scores. John Hopkins too.

And fine ones they are too.

But I was a little surprised to see that DJ Sasha has also moved into this area.

It's no real surpise because they are all experts at what the do.

Which other bands/members have become the go-to people to do soundtracks?

 

[Hollis]

Dave Stewart?

 

[colacubes]

Isn’t one of the guys from Tool doing the soundtrack for the new version of Labyrinth?

Jonny Greenwood from Radiohead’s done quite a few scores.

Middle aged potheads might remember 2 Player from Ninja Tunes' Ninja Cuts: Flexistentialism (The Joy Of Dex) in the mid-90s:



One half of the duo, Daniel Pemberton, is currently a big name composer in Hollywood, having done scores for Ferrari, In to/Across the Spiderverse, Motherless Brooklyn, Bad Guys, The Trial of the Chicago Seven, etc.

That cd was quite formative for me :cool;

Mark Mothersbaugh off of Devo does film scores, and Danny Elfman from every Tim Burton film used to be in Oingo Boingo. JG Thirlwell from Foetus has done some cartoon soundtracks, and British Sea Power did the Disco Elysium soundtrack. And a soundtrack for some film about the Aran Islands but I don't care as much about that one.

Micachu, formerly of the Shapes, did the soundtrack for Under The Skin and others.
