Clint Mansell
Formerly of Alternative Rock jokesters Pop Will Eat Itself, Clint Mansell is a composer who is mainly known for his work in film soundtracks. And what soundtracks they are...
Characterized by minimalism, high emotional torque, and frequently being horribly creepy, many of his tracks have become just as recognizable as the movies themselves.
He's a longtime collaborator of Darren Aronofsky.
Has done music for:
- Pi
- Requiem for a Dream
- Moon
- The Fountain
- Smokin Aces
- Definitely Maybe
- The Wrestler
- Faster
- Black Swan
- Mass Effect 3
- The Iron Lady (rejected and replaced by Thomas Newman)
Clint Mansell provides examples of the following tropes:
- Amen Break: In the Pi sound track, the first ("πr^2") and last ("2πr") tracks (who's titles represent the area and circumference of a circle) use the break.
- Also, the first measure of the Amen Break meets the golden ratio when visualized.
