Certainly nobody without a time machine can crank out that much music on a weekly basis.
Most television composers these days are both composers and brands. They score the pilot and key episodes and scenes, while farming out other cues to a stable of composers who work for them. They typically instruct the composer on which themes to use, what tone to go for, etc. And as the brand, the credited composer is responsible for approving the cues he doesn't write and changing them if he doesn't think they work. In a way, yes, this is ghost-writing, but in all cases I know of, the supporting composers receive credit on cue-sheets, meaning they receive the proper royalties. They are allowed to post their music on their websites to promote themselves. They just don't receive screen credit.
I'm certain this must be the case with Neely.
All true, except for one thing, the main composer has the choice to give cue sheet credit. Many times the "help" is paid through the composer themselves and there is little to no paperwork that involved the studio or production company. They don't know who wrote what and don't really care a lot of the time. That is up to the main composer and only them if they want to give cue-sheet. If they have "help" on projects and they don't want to give any cue sheet, they can and that's that. Just because someone writes a piece of music and it's coded as arranging or additional music, that doesn't mean that person WILL get cue-sheet. I wish it was, but it's not. I have heard from many composers who have worked with other composers and they've received nothing. They do get paid upfront, they all get that, sometimes per minute of music, sometimes a flat rate, but often times they get no cue-sheet credit and no royalties. I even heard a story of a composer telling another "helper" and I'm paraphrasing, "this cue you just wrote will put my daughter through college." The "helper" got no cue sheet. I have always felt that if you have help, it's not that hard to always give cue sheet to your "help" even if it's some small percentage like 5% or 10%, ANYTHING speaks volumes to your character and helps the "help" out.
Blake at Comic Con had some of his staff who worked on the show(s) signing CD's next to Blake, THAT IS AWESOME on so so many levels. I always had huge respect for Blake, after seeing that, I have much much more

Enjoying the show very much. I'm about halfway through the run, and I'm glad to see a second season is coming despite the cancellation on the original channel. Have to agree that the music has generally struck me as generic sadly. Perhaps if my collecting urge succeeds in compelling me to buy the cd, I might get to appreciate it more. It doesn't help that this and it's (now) sister shows don't have decent title sequences that give a proper opportunity to at least give us a great theme.
