Background: VH1 is going BEHIND THE MUSIC again in 2009.
BEHIND THE MUSIC emerged from the cable television jungle of the 1990s to become the most celebrated music documentary series in TV history. BTM blew up the small screen with true tales of drugs and debauchery, breakups and makeups. Bombastic managed all the visuals and Radium created all the music and sound design on the impacts, crashes and smashes.

How we did it: We scored all musical elements and sound elements, working in a very unusual technique we decided to work opposite to how we normally construct sound elements - no details on this [sorry competitors] however we can say that detail was the key to our refined music & sound.

Sounds we created include: dust, crash, smash, glass, impact, dramatic chipmunk tension, post impact and music.

"I am thrilled that a colleague recommended Radium to compose new music to rebrand a show package of an Emmy Award winning show franchise. Andrew and his team began work with our creative brief, but at the end of the project brought so much more to the table than what was requested. We were so impressed by their work that we threw them into another project and they over-delivered in quality and quantity within a super tight deadline. Although they are across the pond, the 5 hour time difference was transparent as they were always available to our team as a creative sounding board. Their talent, attention to detail, enthusiasm, wit and professionalism made the collaboration process effortless."
