Composer and Producer Clash Over Theme Song Direction

A public disagreement has emerged between a composer and a producer concerning creative decisions surrounding a theme song for a television show. According to composer Tapia de Veer, the initial version of the theme sparked significant controversy, drawing attention from international media outlets seeking comment. De Veer stated that reaction to the theme song change was intense, and he had suggested releasing a longer version to appease disgruntled viewers. However, producer Mike White reportedly rejected this idea, leading to further dispute between the two.

Creative Differences Lead to Professional Rift

The composer indicated that irreconcilable creative differences were at the heart of the issue. “I mean, at that point, we already had our last fight forever, I think. So he was just saying no to anything,” the composer explained, suggesting a complete breakdown in their professional relationship.

Producer Reacts to Composer’s Public Statements

In response to the composer’s public airing of grievances, producer Mike White addressed the situation during an appearance on The Howard Stern Show on April 8. White characterized the composer’s decision to discuss their disagreements publicly as a “b–ch move.”

Producer Disputes Composer’s Account of Feud

“I honestly don’t know what happened,” White stated, expressing surprise upon reading interviews where the composer discussed leaving the show. “I just don’t think he respected me,” White added, suggesting a lack of professional courtesy from the composer.

Differing Perspectives on Collaboration

White downplayed the composer’s description of their interactions, stating, “They ‘never really even fought’,” and clarifying, “He says we feuded…It was basically me giving him notes.” White asserted that their collaboration had been productive during the initial two seasons, citing a shared exchange of ideas. However, White noted a shift in season three, alleging that Tapia de Veer “didn’t want to go through the process with me, he didn’t want to get notes from me, he didn’t want to go to sessions,” indicating a growing reluctance from the composer to engage in the collaborative process.
