    With word on NACHO, I emailed Richard Kraft, Danny’s agent to ask whether the news was true and if he could shed some light on the subject. He replied with:

    “Ryan,

    Danny Elfman has not removed his name from NACHO LIBRE. He elected not to take a “Music by” credit.

    Danny Elfman was brought in to do a replacement score on for the film. The final mix of the movie includes about 2/3rds of the score Elfman composed with the other third comprised of music retained from the first score (composed by Beck) as well as other music. For this reason, Elfman chose not to take a “Music by” credit on the film or advertisements. Instead, he decided to take credit for the cues he composed in the End Titles to properly identify his contributions to the final film.”

    Hmm, makes sense. I assume then that if a Nacho album comes out, it’ll be a compilation. (Man, is Elfman’s music going to overshadow Beck’s.)

    I guess the film will be worth seeing after all. Concerning Beck, the only thing I know about him is that he’s a Scientologist.

    hey, I like Beck.

    I just don’t know about him writing a film score.

    that’s good news to hear the way the news was represented sounded like he didn’t want to be apart of the project at all, but glad to hear this.

    Interesting info. Thanks… good for Danny, I wouldn’t want the Music By: tag either with that situation.
