Description
ABOUT THE MUSIC
Castaway Clocks is comparable to the music of John Williams, Alan Silvestri, Danny Elfman, Hans Zimmer, Randy Newman, Enya, and Yanni. Some of the tracks even sound similar to music you would enjoy while watching a live show at the Walt Disney World resort, or the Cirque Du Soleil. The compositions themselves are Hollywood-like, meaning this is the kind of music you would expect to hear while watching a movie in the drama and/or suspense genres.
ABOUT THE COMPOSER
Gerardo Betancourt was born on September 9, 1974 in Bayamon, Puerto Rico. He's also known as "Gee" (G.), and "Geebee" (G.B.), nicknames based on his initials. He moved to Orlando in 1990 to further his education. He graduated from Winter Park H.S. in 1992, and was then accepted to the University of Central Florida.
While in college, he developed an affinity for music. He became a disc jockey, though only as hobby. He also turned computer savvy. Through this time, music remained an intricate part of his life, along with design and writing. In Spring of 1998, he graduated from UCF with a B.A. in Film. From then on, he has devoted his time to personal enrichment, documenting ideas, and developing an ear for music composition and arrangement.
In 2004, with a desire to compose film scores, he wrote a children's book called "The Castaway Clocks Of The Castle At Northwind," and composed a score for it. He relocated to Los Angeles to release both. He resides in the west side of the city, but is known to live in the heart of Hollywood. He is currently writing a novel, and composing a second score.
