The arrangements, sound design, music direction, and original pre-show/intermission/ and exit music are by Peter Adams. The production was nominated for 5 LA Ovation awards. <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/3/111114/1644714/ReAnimatorRevisedPoster4-edit_400.jpg" width="400" height="587" width_o="1000" height_o="1469" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/3/111114/1644714/ReAnimatorRevisedPoster4-edit_o.jpg" data-mid="11374587" border="0" align="left"/> "Synthesized with valiant gusto by musical whiz PETER ADAMS, it alternates mock-heroic anthems worthy of Bernard Herrmann's trunk with cute ditties in a Gilbert & Sullivan jugular vein, all teeming with tricky rhymes and wit ("His psychosis gives me chills/He cannot love, he only kills")." -Variety "The keys to this kingdom, however, are the combination of the brilliant comic ensemble and Gordon's pristine craftsmanship as a director — his perfect unity of styles, and his sculpting of each short scene to bring narrative turning points to the fore, supplemented by musical director/arranger PETER ADAMS' building of suspense. Adams performs the score on a synthesizer tucked into the side of the hall, creating the slightly cheesy ambiance that's the life force of Grand Guignol." - LA Weekly "The pre-show and exit music, composed by PETER ADAMS, are wonderful, eerie before-and-afters for the chaos on stage." - WEHO News http://spotlightfloodlight.com/Maidenhead-film http://spotlightfloodlight.com/following/spotlightfloodlight.com/Maidenhead-film Sat, 16 Jul 2011 12:44:06 +0000 Spotlight, Floodlight 1644718 MAIDENHEAD a film by Jim Spanos musical score by Peter Adams Here's what one reviewer said about the music; "The music also helps immensely with the feeling of everything being wrong. Expertly handled by PETER ADAMS, it almost becomes a character unto itself as, for the most part, dialogue is kept to a minimum. The version I got a chance to see did not have all the sound corrections done to it that are needed, so I can only imagine how much more effective it will be when the music really has a chance to stand out." - DREADCENTRAL.COM read the full review here Maidenhead (soundtrack) by Peter Adams Synopsis - Poor Martin doesn’t have much of a life. He doesn’t have a girlfriend, he hasn’t been sleeping well, and he still lives at home... with his father, who is an obnoxious, bloodthirsty monster strapped to a bed. Martin (AJ Bowen of House of the Devil and The Signal) spends his days going numbly about the business of tending to his Dad’s grisly needs. Every day is just like the last, until Martin meets an innocent church-going girl named Meredith, who gives him hope of something more. But what about Dad? *Maidenhead is currently unreleased http://spotlightfloodlight.com/Polarized http://spotlightfloodlight.com/following/spotlightfloodlight.com/Polarized Fri, 15 Jul 2011 23:57:19 +0000 Spotlight, Floodlight 1640794 <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/3/111114/1640794/polarized.jpg" width="325" height="289" width_o="325" height_o="289" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/3/111114/1640794/polarized_o.jpg" data-mid="8046343" border="0" align="left"/> Polarized by Spotlight, Floodlight Credits: All music composed and performed by Peter Adams with Craig Macintyre - drums John Wicks - drums and percussion Brett Simons - acoustic bass also Sean Hurley - electric bass on May Butch Norton - percussion on May Tim Curle - percussion on Untitled Michael Eisenstein - electric guitar on AM Recorded, mixed and mastered by Bruce Macfarlane Recorded @ Happy Ending Studios, Silverlake, CA with additional recording by Peter Adams © LOWER YOUR VOICE MUSIC 2010
