Film scores without films

While he takes a break from Owl City, Owatonna native Adam Young has decided to pursue his love of film music — despite not having any films to score. He's writing a score for one historical event each month this year, starting with last month's score for the Apollo 11 moon landing. The inspiration for March's music: the Titanic disaster. "I tried to make sure that whatever I was doing would stand alone and not be too influenced by Horner’s amazing score," says Young. He's writing the music "solely on computer from his home in Minnesota," reports Billboard.
