For Lynch, he also composed scores for “Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me,” “Wild at Heart,” “Lost Highway” and “A Straight Story.” Among his other scores were “Cabin Fever,” “Auto Focus,” “Before the Fall,” “Dark Water,” “Secretary” and “A Very Long Engagement.”, “Some of the happiest moments I’ve ever had have been working with Angelo. He’s got a big heart, and he allowed me to come into his world and get involved with music.
Born in Brooklyn, he earned a bachelor’s and masters from the Manhattan School of Music and worked in theater and advertising as well as scoring “Law and Disorder” and “Gordon’s War” before meeting Lynch. Badalamenti told Chris Willman for the L.A. Times, “One of the things I just did for ‘Twin Peaks’ is 15 minutes long and called ‘The Lowest Circle in Hell.’ And it’s just very low, dark, sustained things that are so beautiful to me. Maybe a little strange to others, but it’s transcendent, to me. And I love putting those things as a bed against something maybe a little more palatable.”
