He produced (along with Rob Schnapf) Elliott Smith's albums Either/Or, XO (on which he also created the drum loop for the song "Independence Day") and Figure 8. In 1997, the duo's recording of Smith's tune 'Miss Misery' in Gus Van Sant's film Good Will Hunting received an Oscar nomination for Best Original Song. The duo also produced the Toadies, Supreme Beings of Leisure, Fu Manchu and Richard Thompson.
Rothrock, along with Schnapf and partner Bradshaw Lambert started Bong Load Custom Records in the early 90's, which is notable for releasing Beck's Loser single. Rothrock first heard Beck when he saw him jump onstage to play inbetween bands during a show at Jabberjaw and approached him afterwards about recording his songs. Together Rothrock, Schnapf, Beck, and Karl Stephenson recorded what would become Loser, and subsequently, Mellow Gold, Beck's critically acclaimed major label debut. Rothrock and Schnapf would continue to record with Beck, working on material for what was intended to be his follow-up to Mellow Gold, a somber acoustic affair meant to silence detractors that claimed he was a one hit wonder. Beck eventually went on to record his Grammy Award winning Odelay with The Dust Brothers, including one song from the Rothrock/Schnapf sessions, "Ramshackle", as the album closer.
In film, Rothrock produced the original songs for the About A Boy soundtrack and score with Badly Drawn Boy. He composed music for the film Collateral directed by Michael Mann and is credited on the song 'Goofy Goober Rock' on the SpongeBob SquarePants: The Movie soundtrack. His recording of R.L. Burnside's 'It's Bad You Know' was included on The Sopranos original television soundtrack release.
In 2005, Rothrock produced, recorded and mixed James Blunt's album "Back to Bedlam".
In 2007, Tom Rothrock released his own instrumental solo debut titled, 'Resonator' on the re-launched Bong Load imprint.

Mark Ruffalo theme
@johnishikawa2200
That music goes so well with the movie , Collateral , and I'll tell you , Collateral is THE MOST underated film of ALL TIME !!! The film was released in 2004 , and I saw it in theaters . But just recently I and a lady friend who knew NOTHING about the picture , watched it , and she was blown away ! She had no idea that Tom Cruise had made a film like this , and she never saw Cruise like THIS !
@TheLordEmperorBlkrse
I love seeing how many other people appreciate this obscure piece of music. It’s so good.

Kind of theme song you would play as you and your team gets ready for a battle, loading the bullets and getting ready to kick ass

It's used by the Dilley meme team - not quite the same, but close enough!
@darkstranger777
