28	!! Tropes associated with this composer:

30	* AssociatedComposer: For Creator/JamesCameron and Rowdy Herrington.
31	* ElectronicMusic: The majority of his scores are rendered electronically, including those for the first two ''Terminator'' films, although he does occasionally use acoustic instruments and on rare occasions a full orchestra.
32	* HellIsThatNoise: The eerie whistle motif heard in his score for ''Film/JustBeforeDawn''.
33	* UncommonTime: The main theme to ''Film/TheTerminator'' is in 13/16. This is actually an unintentional example, the result of the instrumental tracks being improperly synchronized, but it was kept as it was because it matched the film's grim tone.
