Composer (Music Score) Born: June 17, 1947 in Chattanooga, TN Biography:"George S. Clinton" ranks as one of the most innovative, versatile, and popular film score composers of the 1980s and 1990s. He specializes in creating fresh new sounds from a variety of often disparate musical elements. For example, for the soundtrack to the "Mike Myers" spy spoof "Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery" (1997), he drew upon soundtracks from the James Bond and Matt Helm series of the 1960s, as well as the music from other classic spy movies, combining them with psychedelic pop. An amalgam Clinton calls Techno/Taiko/Orcho has become one of his most famous musical formulas. A combination of synthesizer-heavy techno music combined with a symphony orchestra and traditional Asian drumming, he has used it in "Mortal Kombat" (1995), its sequel "Mortal Kombat II: Annihilation" (1997), and the comedy "Beverly Hills Ninja" (1997).
