Corner Stone Cues

Corner Stone Cues (CSC) is a label and music production house based in Los Angeles. CSC is best known for debut release and title song “Requiem for a Tower” featured in the trailer for The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers. “Requiem for a Tower” is the re-orchestration and arrangement of Clint Mansell’s “Requiem for a Dream” by Daniel J. Nielsen, Simone Benyacar, and Veigar Margeirsson.

In 2006 CSC collaborated with electro rock band Kinky from Monterrey, Nuevo Leon, Mexico. The 5 song E.P. titled "Sassy" included Kinky's cover of Wall of Voodoo's, "Mexican Radio.". Kinky later included a remastered version of Mexican Radio on the re-release of Reina. Both Reina and Sassy were originally distributed by Nettwerk.

In 2008 "Eton Path" was released which included the London Studio Orchestra, Purcell Singers, Azam Ali, Dierdre Dubois, Riffat Salamatt, Bryan "Brain" Mantia, Buckethead, and Damian Marley. Eton Path includes the adaptation of Led Zeppelin songs "Ten Years Gone” and "Kashmir." CSC re-orchestrated two movements titled "Ten Years Kashmir Mvt I& II.”

"In Situ" the most recent release, features songs mainly composed by Daniel Law Heath.

There are tentative plans to record a future hybrid orchestral album in the style of "Eton Path".[1][2][3][4]
