003, 010. Kurt Oldman has scored an impressive number of films and television projects in a variety of genres, all with strikingly original music. The intense disharmonic and frightening score for the dramatic thriller Babysitter Wanted; the violent orchestral intensity to Marco Polo; the propulsive pounding orchestral techno rhythms of Restless Dead; the darkened vocal infused Out Of Mind; the romantic and upbeat comedic All Along; the haunting chords of Fortune Cookie; the eclectic jazzy grooves of Harlem’s Beauty and many others are the work of this surprisingly versatile composer.
Several of the films he has scored have garnered awards including:
- All Along: Best Feature Comedy, Hollywood Film Festival
- Learning To Swim: Showtime Award

008. Matt Gates attended the University of Arkansas, the Pacific North West Film Scoring Program, the University of Southern California and the ASCAP Film Scoring Work Shop. He majored in musical composition and film scoring. “From the first moment I understood the mechanics of music I began writing it.” Gates stated in an autobiography.
“I remember those first moments of creative bursts as being the most exhilarating experience of my life to that point. The most important thing in my life from that moment on became recreating that experience for people other than myself. I want to give this gift to people in mass, billions of people would not be too many.”
