Ep 221-Chad Hobson on Paying Your Dues and Finding Freedom

In this episode, Chad Hobson reveals how he looked to show a "magical quality" of the two victims and their fateful meeting of Michael Jackson and the over-arching metaphor he used to service as a guide for the tone of his score. Hobson discusses the challenge, choices and goals of writing an actual theme to represent the "abuse," but, at last, why he didn't write a theme for Michael Jackson.
