My orchestral action track ‘Titan‘ was used in last night’s opening ceremony for basketball team the L.A. Lakers at the Staples Center in Los Angeles. Among the crowd were Jack Nicholson, Denzel Washington and David Beckham.

The music introduced the Lakers in this introductory video clip just before they played their first game of the NBA season against the Houston Rockets (the Lakers won 112-110; maybe the music gave them the edge ;)

Update: You can also now view the original full quality intro clip to the right which was projected onto the huge screens among the crowds at the Staples Center.

Thanks to Peter Bailey at Sideshow Studios (www.sideshow-studios.com) who wrote, directed and edited all the graphics and video for the promo.

You can get the full orchestral track ‘Titan‘ to download or license for use in your own projects from my mp3 shop here:

  1. I love the crowd’s reaction to “TITAN”.

    Congratulations, Simon!

    I’m curious – who are some movie soundtrack composers that you admire?

    Thanks Bolaji,

    OTT orchestral stuff like this is fun to do occasionally but not really what I want to focus on. Some of my favourite composers are people like Clint Mansell, Philip Glass, David Shire, John Carpenter, Ennio Morricone, Arvo Pärt, Alexandre Desplat, the list goes on… Rich atmospheric and textural music.
