Anyone notice how out-of-character the music is in episode 7?

The music that plays as Leo gets shot, and when Catherine and Shelley are in the drying shed as the fire starts are both really different to the rest of the TP score, and pretty cheesy and generic to boot. There may be other moments of musical cheesedom, but these are the only ones that ever really stood out.

Does anyone know if this is stock music, or if Angelo actually wrote it? Seems way, way beneath him.

I don't remember the music playing when Leo gets shot, but I've always kind of thought the music during the drying shed fire scene sounded like something that would play during a climactic moment on an episode of MacGyver. Pretty cheesy, and I too would be stunned if that were something that Angelo had created.

I can confirm that it indeed was a Badalamenti original.

Well, I'm no longer pining for a third volume of the Twin Peaks soundtrack. :)

Well, to be fair, it's quite remarkable that in 25 hours or so of television, that's the only music that seems really out of character. It's a testament to Badalamenti's genius that this one oddity sticks out so obviously.

Thanks for the confirmation, Dugpa!

Indeed.

I just love the overall soundtrack, most especially when julee cruise performs. Both she and her band dovetail beautifully with angelo's score...
