The psychological thriller soundtrack is one of the most daunting tasks of any composer, and Greg has exceeded his previous film scores with this one: intense yet melodic, beautiful yet haunting, and disturbed yet tranquil.

"American South" is Greg's ninth film soundtrack, following "Motive", "In No Sense Lost", "Mid-Life Crisis", "Secrets Of A Medicine Man", "Shen", "The Dead Walk", "Z", and "Holiday Season". This work combines Southern gothic melodies with a variety of musical styles, including blues, neo-classical, jazz, gospel, experimental, ambient, electronic, new age, pop, and Americana. You can almost feel the primordial ooze of forgotten bayous, replete with serenading choirs of insects, enveloping you as you listen. The accompanying film is the story of a very small town that has never had a single serious crime, which is suddenly beset by a series of murders. At first they suspect a drifter - surely it couldn't be one of them - until an experienced criminal profiler is called in, who makes the locals realize their worst fears. Greg has thematically scored this storyline by attributing highly individual melodies to each of the major characters. The unique theme song plays hide and seek with the listener throughout the soundtrack, being interwoven with other melodies from time to time. It is an extremely robust collection of instrumental music that follows no set rules, and stands successfully on its own.
