Douglass Fake, Prolific Soundtrack Producer and Intrada Label Founder, Dies at 72


Douglass Fake, founder of the leading movie soundtrack label Intrada, and producer of more than 700 albums of movie and TV music, has died at 72.

Fake partnered with other composers for the release of dozens of other soundtrack albums, including Laurence Rosenthal (“Becket,” “The Miracle Worker”), Bruce Broughton (“Tombstone”) and James Horner (“The Lady in Red,” “Troy”). However, the label supplies studios with pristine digital copies of what were often decaying master tapes, which become an invaluable part of the musical legacy of Hollywood. He averaged the release of 40 albums a year at the height of the CD era, and celebrated the 30th anniversary of the label in 2015 at L.A.’s Walt Disney Concert Hall.
