Recommended Posts

i noticed that pistolero was playing during a scene of the once upon a time in mexico movie...was that one of the rmx of the juno reactor track (i have the cd with the remixes but it sounded a little bit different) or is this a famous tune that juno reactor remixed themselves? just wondering...

Sounded like they just made a shorter more intense mix for the movie,

juno reactor stuff is showing up all over the place in movies nowadays.. :)

That was absolutely the worst movie I have ever seen. And to make it even worse, it was 2 hours long. The first time I ever fell asleep in a movie multiple times! I fell asleep during Dogma too, but only once.

 

All because my stupid gf wanted to see johnny depp.

Ben Watkins is used to working for movie score :

 

Interview excerpt (http://www.nativeinstruments.de/index.php?watkins_us)

 

Q:Did the Matrix production team approach you because they were familiar with your music?

A:I think the Wachowski brothers were really into Juno Reactor's music, mainly because it's very filmic.

 

Q:How long did you work on the soundtrack?

A:Two and a half months. I think I had like 3 days off. Yeah, it was a bit insane. When I came back, my body and my brain were just completely drained; I don't think I've ever been that tired in my life.

 

Q:Was the soundtrack for Matrix your first work for the movie world?

A:I've done others, but nothing like this.

 

Q:What other films have you worked on?

A:I worked on Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Lost in Space, Mortal Kombat 1&2, Virtuosity, I did an electronic score for Beowulf But in that instance I never met the directors or the producers, they just took everything I did, and I wrote and recorded it in a month for that film. Matrix was a totally different thing, this was like going to college. It was like a massive, really massive learning experience. Everyone told me that the Wachowski brothers are very rare, because they really know what they want. It was brilliant working for them.

 

Q:Is this something you're going to do more often?

A:I've been asked to go back in July to write for the next one, Matrix Revolutions It's exciting working with people that have got a lot of ideas, and I really like L.A, there are so many people who are either doing things or wanting to do things or trying to get things together. You know, it's a great creative environment to work in.

 

Q:How has this project affected the way you produce music?

A:I think it 's going to take me about a year to digest everything (laughs). When I was writing on the film it made me think that writing tracks for albums is really easy. I shouldn't scratch my head so much when I work on a track for an album.
