Soundtracks and Scores : That Damn Harry Manfredini Sound…

That Damn Harry Manfredini Sound…

One of the unusual effects of watching too many Friday The 13th movies is not that I get nightmares, or get spooked out by hockey masks...it's that damn music. The soundtrack for every Friday the 13th film of the 80s (sans maybe part 8) always had a bazillion little sound effects.

Funny thing is, this guy is apparently a Jazz musician.

That's a great talent for someone to switch genres like that, or, to take elements from one genre and make it work in another.

"Ch--ch--ch--ah--ah--ah..."

I heard that that sound Manfredini created was inspired from Goldsmith's "clang clang clang" sound in Coma. Definitely digs into the psyche. I hear voices...

A jazz musician: Like Johnny Williams began as! Cool! Thanks for sharing.
