Klaus has done solid work with scores for Time Machine and K-19. I just think that he needs to distance himself from Zimmer and develop his style a bit more.
I respect the composers at Media Ventures and the work they do. The seems to bit too much handholding when it comes to scoring films. I can understand a collaboration between two composers but seven or eight? Composers who can write their music on their own, orchaestrate, and conduct are becoming a dying breed.
