Hey Peeps,

I've just finished my first movie score which I am super proud of, so I wanted to share a bit of it to those that are interested. I don't think I'll release it but I'm putting my fave bits up on my myspace player for you to listen to.

"Beautiful" is a low budget aussie movie portraying the darker side of suburbia. It's in cinemas now so be sure to check it out.

Today I've put these tracks up:

1. Beautiful. This is the opening title sequence. It's kind of a fractured fucked up fairytale piece that came to me as I was riding my motorbike.

2. The Backyard of Earthy Delights. This is for when one of the characters Danny goes wandering through the neighbours garden looking for evidence of nastiness.

3. On A Mission. Danny goes to confront the killer - a mash of string and electronics.

4. Sherrie's Lament - This piece is for when Sherrie goes to have an abortion. The pictures moved me so much I wrote possibly the saddest peice of music I've ever written. When I first played this to the producer and director they were both crying. I used the opportunity to ask for more budget so I could have real strings and they ended up saying yes. yaaaaaaay!

So that's it for now, stay posted and I'll chuck up some more music from the film soon.

Feel free to write and tell me what you think.

I hope you enjoy it.

Hey peeps,

From time to time i get some bizarre requests for production stuff, but this latest one is worth sharing.
Vivacity asked me to remix "Greensleeves" (the classic Mr Whippy van theme) for a promotion of outdoor events they've been doing.
At first i thought it was a kind of a strange idea, but when I did it, I ended up loving it! Everyone that's heard it is into it too.
Anyway, they made a short, cool clip for it which is now up on youtube. Check it out HERE.
Also i've added some photos to Myspace of me and DJ Seymour Butz doing our thing around town and most recently at the Sydney Big Day Out in the Silent Disco (Ooh and there's one with this hot chick I met too).

More soon, love ya.
cheers mac!

Paul Mac has written the music for a new show that's just about to open in good ol' Sydney town! Frank Woodley one half of much loved duo, Lano and Woodley stars in POSSESSED. The show has been described as 'a wildly physical feast of comic imagination' a love story set in a basement featuring all original music by Paul Mac.
The show opens at the Sydney Opera House on June 10 and tickets are available from Sydneyoperahouse.com or Ticketek.
Paul Mac has been as busy as ever of late with POSSESSED, writing the title music for Australian film "Hey Hey It's Esther Blueburger" and mixing Mr G's radio and club smash "Naughty Girl", he is also the host for BigPond Music's concert series, Monday Night Live.

The soundtrack to the new Australian movie Hey Hey It's Esther Blueburger is in store now, with the film starring Keisha Castle-Hughes and Toni Collette, opening nationally on March 20.
Paul Mac's lead track "The Only One" sits rather nicely alongside a host of other cool Australian artists including label mate Missy Higgins with her track "The Wrong Girl".

"The Only One" was written by Paul Mac specifically for the film, and features stunning vocals from Sydney songstress Bertie Blackman and the Sydney Children's Choir.
Have you checked out the 'making of' the song and the video clip on Paul's MySpace page yet? Go here!
