His music for THX 1138 was lacklustre.

From the songs Iโ€™ve heard, it seems like he just wrote generic orchestral music rather than trying create songs that fit the movie, themes, etc. He would then relicense these (e.g. "Tar Sequence", which is used by new channels but was composed for a "Cool Hand Luke", a prison drama)
