Unlocking the Secrets of Reference Cues

In this episode, I share a simple framework I created to help composers break down and study reference cues. You’ll learn how to listen for the musical elements that shape mood and emotion and how to extract those details so you can use them as a blueprint for your own cues!

Plus we check out a new Trip Hop crime tension cue, "Hard of Red Herring."
