Tomandandy is an American musical duo from New York City, consisting of members Thomas Hajdu and Andy Milburn. While they are best known for their work scoring films, the duo has also produced music for television commercials and programs, records and art installations.
Background
Andy Milburn was born in Texas and attended Princeton University. During that time, he contributed to the early computer music system called Real-time Cmix. Thomas Hajdu was born in Canada and moved to the United States to work on his graduate studies at Princeton University.
Career
Milburn and Hajdu moved to New York after graduating and started collaborating with film director Mark Pellington at MTV and film editors Hank Corwin and Bruce Ashley in the UK. Soon their work was being used in commercials, TV shows, feature films, art installations and record projects. Tomandandy quickly grew and they built a number of recording studios in New York and later in Los Angeles.
In 1992, Tomandandy appeared on the Red Hot Organization's dance compilation album, Red Hot + Dance, contributing an original dance track, "Theme From Red Hot & Dance (Gothic Mix)." The album attempted to raise awareness and money in support of the AIDS epidemic, and all proceeds were donated to AIDS charities.
In 2009, Tomandandy won Best Horror Score (runner-up) in Fangoria's Chainsaw Award for their score to The Strangers.
In 2020, Tomandandy's Tom Hajdu reflected on The Strangers soundtrack during an interview.
