. “It was literally my childhood,” she says of the song collection that featured classic ’80s hits including “Africa” by Toto, “Candy Girl” by New Edition and “Jump” by Van Halen.
Her goal was to use music from the year authentically, visually and musically where the lyrics would often match what was being seen on-screen. Dire Straits to Bruce Springsteen were some of the artists whose songs Foerster secured to thread the story together. Cyndi Lauper’s ballad “Time After Time” is featured as Matt Damon’s character Sonny is waiting to learn whether Jordan will sign is played.
Foerster walks through how “Air” landed its iconic tunes, and shares insight into what didn’t make the cut.“Originally, we had ‘Dirty Water’ by Don Henley, and then we tried for ‘Boys of Summer’ for the first main title. It did clear, but we didn’t get it in time. “You can’t set a time better than using a cue from a movie that everybody remembers. Harold’s score from ‘Beverly Hills Cop’ is so well known. We use Axel F’s theme for such a short time, but it’s excellent and it does its job so quickly.”“We didn’t have a composer so we licensed seven cues by Tangerine Dream, the German electronic music band. We had two spots that we needed to figure out, so we hired Paul Haslinger, a former member of the band, to compose music for those moments.
