Sound for our OTS

Due to copyright law we're going to use 30 second extract of a few songs. Two songs we've chosen are by 'James Robert Belden.' He is an American saxophonist, arranger, composer, band leader and producer. One of his songs we're using, 'City of angles' is part of a Grammy award winning jazz orchestral recording titled 'The Black Dahlia.' We thought his songs fit in the the era of film noir. 'City of angles' is used in our intro as the arrangement is very dramatic but the tempo is slow to intertwine with an introduction. Secondly 'Before' by Bob Belden is a fairly up beat piece with a sense of caution foreshadowing the tension coming Thelma and Louise's way. For the runaway scene we've used 'Any day now' by Elbow. It slowly fades in which goes well with the realization from the detective that they've escaped. After he realizes the camera cuts to T+L running away where the music gets up tempo -fitting the ambience of a get away scene.
