What can be said first and foremost is that Deepwater Horizon explores a lot of space: reverberated, jangly guitars and lone piano notes cry out alongside sweltering bass that swims throughout on tracks such as "The Rig" and "Taming the Dinosaurs." "Stop the Crane" is something a bit different and a bit more raucous - its arpeggiated synth bass cuts throughout while electronic toms punch through rich, urgent strings and sweeping, ornate synth pads.
Deepwater sounds akin to his score for Berg’s Lone Survivor, which he created alongside post-rock titans Explosions in the Sky. His score for Peter Berg's Deepwater Horizon is a nice example of one of his more evocative, emotion-stirring scores with the occasional gritty action-oriented number. However, it’s his more ethereal, atmospheric works that are the shining gems in his back catalog. Film score composer Steve Jablonsky has made a name for himself over the years with a number of scores for assorted Hollywood blockbusters - everything from children’s animation to Michael Bay's Transformer series - so he obviously has a knack for delivering what’s needed.
