Terry Scott Taylor> Klaymen Shuffle
The Neverhood soundtrack combines some of my favorite, paradoxical, elements: cartoon music with avant-garde jazz (with a good dose of old timey stuff). A rare example of truly contemporary cartoon music.
Walt Disney Productions > Who’s Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf?
Composed by Frank Churchill
I couldn’t really neglect the first cartoon hit song ever, yes? 
Scott Bradley > TV of Tomorrow
Composed by Scott Bradley
Scott Bradley was the major scoring composer/conductor of comedy cartoons who gave Carl Stalling a run for his money in the mid 20th century. But, as you can hear in this cool score from 1953, Tex Avery’s TV of Tomorrow, Bradley was listening a lot closer to the modernists than the romantics.
Hoyt Curtin & The Hanna-Barbera Studio Big Band >
Quick Draw McGraw
(Underscore & Syndicated End Titles)
Composed by Hoyt Curtin & Mr. Green
The highly underrated TV cartoon music of Hoyt Curtin was one of the many reasons I was so excited to work at the Hanna-Barbera studios.
Carl Stalling & the Warner Bros. Studio Orchestra > The Good Egg
Composed by Carl Stalling
Since I’m going to be in LA this week on some cartoon business, what better week than Cartoon Music Week? Starting with the most famous theme in the world.
