Intro scene music - Please help

[backlash]

Hi,

We are completing the edition of our latest short movie. The story is a black comedy about a kidnap. This is the very initial scene.

I'm not sure about the music so I would like to know your comments.
On one side it works with some changes that fit the action but on the other it might not fit properly.

Find it here:

Please help with comments about what works and what doesn't. We can't do much more about the editing of the scene, we are late on that

Some more info about the project would be appreciated.

From the current sound bite - which is a boring loop - it seems to be a comedy.

Basically this is the opening sequence. Then we have the credit title and we start on a kidnap scene. She's on a chair and a kidnapper... all goes a bit scary... until things go wrong for the kidnapper due to a simple mistake. From that moment on, there is comedy... kind off...
Not sure if this helps.

We have had several arguments about setting the tone to a neutral one, to allow the other action develop... I would have preferred a more scary, but neutral, score...

Oh, we finished it. I coudln´t convince our editor (and more) to remove it completely... Lengthy discussion...

But finally he removed part of the music, making it work better, mainly being a recurrent theme later on:
