It has permeated that before Cliff Martinez was selected to create the brilliant soundtrack for the fantastic art-house flick Drive, Johnny Jewel (of Glass Candy and The Chromatics and now Symmetry) was in the running to compose it, however he was dropped for fear that he may have been too in-experienced.
