Mark Mancina (born March 9, 1957 in Santa Monica, California) is a composer, primarily for Hollywood soundtracks, such as his collaboration with Trevor Rabin on the soundtrack for Con Air. He arranged many of the songs behind Disney’s The Lion King (while Hans Zimmer wrote the orchestral score with Lebo M for the African chants) including the Broadway musical. He also notably composed the score for the thriller Twister (1996) as well as the blockbuster action flick Speed (1994).
Mancina has also been associated with a number of progressive rock projects. He toured with Rabin in support of Rabin’s Can’t Look Away album and then went on to produce tracks on the Yes album Union. He has also worked with Emerson Lake & Palmer.
He is known to be influenced by the Beatles, favoring their early years.
Mancina also composed the music for the popular 2005-2006 anime TV series BLOOD+ alongside Hans Zimmer.

I've been listening to the Blood+ soundtrack for several years, but only recently picked up August Rush (thanks to Spotify). I've gotta say, August's Rhapsody is an awesome song, particularly that part in the middle where the vocals come in. Chills, man.

They misspelled Caribbean as "Carribean" and Geiger as "Gieger" on the album cover of Speed 2 - now what; stay true to the erroneous track titles, or correct them in your tags? ;)

I am very glad to finally see the Speed 2 score released. There was originally only a songs soundtrack, which didn't interest me. I can't wait to see how it sounds from La La Land Records now officially.

Con Air has an awesome main theme but also credit should go towards Trevor Rabin on that one. Mancina composed some of Hollywood's biggest action flicks of the 1990s.
