ELFMAN ONCE AGAIN HAS ACHIEVED A KIND OF ARTISTIC LIBERATION ON THE RECORD THAT HAD BEEN ELUDING HIM FOR DECADES AND CONNECTING HIM TO BRAND NEW AUDIENCE. BORN AND RAISED IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA ELFMAN BEGAN HIS CAREER AS PART OF A SURREALIST AVANT-GARDE MUSICAL THEATER TROUPE KNOWN AS THE MYSTIC KNIGHTS OF OINGO BOINGO. THE GROUP WOULD EVENTUALLY MORPH INTO THE CRITICALLY ACCLAIMED ROCK BAND OINGO BOINGO WHOSE HIGH-ENERGY PERFORMANCES AND GENRE-BENDING SOUND GARNERED THEM A FANATICALLY DEVOTED CULT FOLLOWING IN THE 1980S AND 90S. AMONG THE GROUPS EARLY FANS WAS FLEDGLING DIRECTOR TIM BURTON AND PAUL REUBENS (AKA PEE-WEE HERMAN) WHO ENLISTED ELFMAN TO SCORE THEIR FIRST FEATURE FILM PEE-WEES BIG ADVENTURE. THE COLLABORATION WOULD PROVE TO BE THE START OF A LONG AND FRUITFUL PARTNERSHIP FOR ELFMAN AND BURTON WITH ELFMAN GOING ON TO SCORE A STRING OF ICONIC BURTON FEATURES LIKE BATMAN BEETLEJUICE BIG FISH EDWARD SCISSORHANDS AND THE NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS. TO DATE ELFMAN HAS SCORED MORE THAN 100 FILMS.
