Seen some of this NAPOLEON DYNAMITE / EDWARD SCISSORHANDS Universe feeling Netflix show and noticed the music is very Danny Elfmanish /Tim Burtonish. Seems like they gave the composer the instructions "Make it as Danny Elfmanish as you can! We can't afford to pay you what he gets, but hey, your working!"

Music sounds pretty good and very Elfmanish/Burtonish.

The composer is: Amotz Plessner


What do you all think of the show and the music, if you have seen it?


I found Colleen Ballinger's original youtube Miranda Sings offerings kind of fun and interesting when I first became aware of her. As a series, the main character of Miranda becomes very unlikable very fast and I think the concept would have been a better 1 time movie. Stretching it out into an 8 episode TV show was a big pill to take. But the production values are top notch and much better than the content they were created to serve. A show made about a gal with a tremendous ego by a girl with a tremendous ego.


Listen to the main title here starting a 2:21:

At 3:43 more Edward Scissorhand Universe Elfman sounding music.

I've not seen it or heard the music, but I've come across Plessner before and liked what I've heard.

I think he may have been the one who did this wonderful eBay commercial, "Toy Boat":

It used to be on a demo compilation on the composer's site, but now I can't find it on any of hte composers I think did it, though I think it was him. It's frustrating as hell, I even contacted Elias Music since it was done under that composer's agency, but never got a reply (no, it wasn't Elias who did it -- that much I know).

You can hear more of the "Haters Back Off" score on Mr. Plessner's site -- along with selections from other projects.

Shouldn't this be in the "General Discussions" area?

Anyways, I listened to the clips on the site, and must say I didn't hear much Elfman. Perhaps just a little bit. Just because there are a lot of waltz figures, doesn't mean it's EDWARD SCISSORHANDS. But pretty decent music nonetheless!
