The Kid: Chamaco was another project I got involved with via The Composer Collective. It was a good opporunity to work on a film with a name actor - Martin Sheen! Shaun Drew provided the thematic material and lots of different composers wrote cues. I tackled the one where the central character, Abner, finds out that his boxing coach/friend is seeing his sister. The version in the finished film was modified slightly from what I had written - same harmonic structure, guitar part just got chopped up a bit differently. The sample above is the cue as I delivered it.
