The first is a piece by Johnny Greenwood, the composer for There Will Be Blood. Though very little score is used in both No Country for Old Men and There Will Be Blood, this piece evokes the kind of chilling tension that Chigur creates throughout the clip I worked on. This type of music was an influence as the the slow, inexorable build up of fear after the protagonist discovers the transmitter adn realises hes not alone.
The second is an amateur musician playing country/western style blues. It is in no way perfectly produced, but its limping, lonely quality fitted well with the situation the protagonist finds himself in. This was an influence to the guitar score I composed myself for the piece but ultimately decided to leave out.
By far the most influential piece was Dustbowl (find via link below) which instantly conjures up images a great dry plains and small hillbilly type Southern towns, exactly the settings to No Country For Old Men. This was a useful grounding influence throughout the whole edit, and especiall during the composition of my own score. . http://www.audionetwork.com/production-music/mood-emotion/ambient-textural-feels/hot-desert-tropical/results.aspx
