Name: The Watchmaker by davidstiles in The Time Machine
Duration: 2 min 26 s
Description: This is another piece from the score I entered in the 2018 Marvin Hamlisch Film Scoring Contest.

Such a magic moment, the horn melody with the trem strings, it made me well up with tears. I've seen friends, (and fiends) tonight that I haven't seen for 2 years. It's so hard to create a simply melody that moves, but you have done so. Love this!

I love this so much! There is a blur, in this current age, (I won't call it modern age..) between composers and music producers. David Stiles is a composer, and a fine one at that.

These tracks are part of my score for the 2018 Marvin Hamlisch Film Scoring Contest. The film we were asked to score was a lovely documentary called "The Time Machine," which was about a watchmaker in Grand Central Station.

The Time Machine

This piece won “Top Finalist” in composing competition by the Film Scoring Academy of Europe (2022)

Fantasy - A Glimpse

"Grand Designs, Humble Life"

Now The Bass Kicks In

This was part of my score for the 2018 Marvin Hamlisch Film Contest. Specifically, the brief end credits to an excellent short film called "The Time Machine." It combines classical orchestral instrumentation with clock sounds that I've produced in a slightly glitch-like fashion.

Maybe You Love Me

This is another of the tracks from my entry for the 2018 Marvin Hamlisch Film Scoring Contest. The film we were assigned to re-score was a documentary about a watchmaker in Grand Central Terminal in New York City.

From Time To The Heavens

Clown Thief Waltz

Daemon

This track was part of the soundtrack re-score I composed for the 2018 edition of the Marvin Hamlisch Film Scoring Contest. The short film in question was called "The Time Machine" (dir: Mark Kendall).

A Sprightly Morning At Grand Central Station

Nothing particularly ground breaking or new here, I was just looking to create a sci-fi  vibe. This started life as one of the Composer Club 30 Second Challenges. I flirted with it for a while longer but kind of quit whilst I was ahead.

Into The Nebula

On The Home Straight

This is another piece from the score I entered in the 2018 Marvin Hamlisch Film Scoring Contest.
