For these particular spots, The client had mentioned the band “Cake” as a desired feel for the music. We listened, and this is what we came up with.

Well not quite, but still, these guys were on a mission, traveling across the country from city to city and competing in challenges as they journeyed. The tour was sponsored by Thrillist, and when they hit Austin, they were locked in fierce battle to compose a “road trip anthem” at Eastside Music. Here’s a little recap of how it all went down!

The call was for a classical piano piece in the style of Frédéric Chopin. We had one day to write, perform and record this spot. Fortunately, Alex Ballentine dusted off the keyboard and successfully delivered this tune. Probably not what you’d expect from an action movie starring Eckhart, but keep your eyes out for this flick set to premier later this year.

We composed the score for this short video, produced by Lee Rothenflue of Cut to Black. After he approached us with these powerful shots, there was no shortage of inspiration, and we were thrilled to be a part of the project.
