Default Similar music

As i am a fan of the sam and max music, has anyone heard similar music? You know music from film{live-action or animation} , and video games.

You might like the soundtrack to The Venture Bros by JG Thirwell.

Or maybe The Incredibles by Michael Giacchino.

Possibly the music of Charles Mingus (currently the Mingus Big Band) or Art Blakey.

Or how about the soundtracks to Touch of Evil by Henry Mancini, or The Sweet Smell of Success by Elmer Bernstein.

People have said there's also a little North By Northwest and Bernard Hermann in there too.

The soundtrack is actually pretty unique. Cartoonish, but still managing to create effective atmosphere without losing the jazzy vibe. I'd like to see some more leitmotifs, though.

But if you mean jazz, I have a few:

This, perhaps.

This.

And also this.

This, too.

This.

This one isn't cartoonish, but it's the kind of music I think would have been right at home in the early parts of They Stole Max's Brain. Some of the Pixar movies, like The Incredibles and Monsters, Inc., have some jazzy music in them, though perhaps not quite the right style.

Not a whole lot of that, although one of the series' main inspirations are old detective show themes.
