A collection of things and ideas I'm either working on or thinking about.Remembering James Horner
Growing up, there was never a time where a James Horner film score wasn’t playing. Be that on a movie screen, TV, headphones or in my memory. As a child of the ‘80s, I grew up on a steady diet of some of the most fantastic films ever to grace the screen and a number...
