Bent Myggen ‎– Number 4 - Versatility

could have sworn I'd gotten this here on the forum and, finally getting around to listen to it but ...

was I dreaming  ,,, 

[stackjackson]

I don't think it came from LMT, but I do have ptrond's 320 rip from July 2011.
Is this the same rip?

[puppydog]

Wanted to hear it too and found it here https://librarymusicthemes.com/index.php?topic=1811.0
Thanks Dylan , Stack and Ptrond

[Mr]

I think I got this from Ptrond, too. Great composer, great record!

Enjoy

Bent Myggen, that first release does not exist. Don't believe everything posted on Discogs, it has tons and tons of errors.

[Greta]

Yeah right, I always forget not to trust discogs everytime.
Thanks Mr.

Hi DylanDylan here's some information supplied by Mr.


Curiously, Bent Myggen is Danish - probably brought to the US by Capitol's Ole Georg, who was born in Denmark.
Again, curiously, "Myggen" isn't actually a 'real' name, roughly translating to "The Mosquito". It was actually his father, Arne Hansen's nickname.
It does seem he legally changed his name to Bent Myggen, though - it does have a nice ring to it, I'll admit!

Cheers,
- Mr

The only alias he is known under is "Bent Sten", which he used for some later Capitol work, among other things.
Another fun fact - he wrote the title song for the Burt Reynolds film "Hooper".

It seems he's very much alive and even still active as composer/musician, now residing in California.
He has a website, with some images and history about him and his journey from Denmark to the US:

- It even has some cool studio photos from back then:


A great setup! I spot a Rhodes, Prophet-5, a Roland TR-808 and a TEAC 80-8 among the gear.



edit: Heck, another related fun fact!
"Piece of Cake" served as the opening theme to the 1985 Mexican action film "Escuadrσn de la Muerte":

[DylanDylan]

manoman, nice setup indeed and, very clean.  his shelving/mounting looks more than ideal wow.  thanks for the info Mr.  I'm going to track down a copy of "Escuadrσn de la Muerte" -- love those titles and the rather awkward resonating moment from 49seconds-60seconds - the dub at the end   

[puppydog]

Thanks so much for Many Faces And New Ways Mr. Some of the most uplifting library tunes i've ever heard
Wouldn't you love to know what titles are in that pile of records on the ground!
