With an intrinsic understanding of an environment’s power, perhaps it’s no coincidence that Bates has become not only an artisan at architecting music for film, television, and video games, but an in-demand multi-instrumentalist, writer, and producer. Through the nineties, he logged 1,200-plus live shows in his bands, including Pet, and released on Igloo/Atlantic records — under the guidance of Tori Amos — before segueing into the world of film score. He started to make waves by creating the menacing audio backdrop for Zack Snyder’s popular Dawn of the Dead reboot in 2004, followed by his soundtrack for the filmmaker’s 300, which remains one of the 21st century’s biggest-selling score albums. His oeuvre expanded to include Watchmen and Sucker Punch, both helmed by Snyder, several collaborations with Rob Zombie — including The Devil’s Rejects, Halloween, and Halloween II — and Killer Joe, directed by Academy Award® winner William Friedkin. To date, he has composed music for 11 feature films that have opened #1 at the box office, with more surely to come.
