Episode #413 of BGMania: A Video Game Music Podcast. Today on the show, Bryan and Bedroth celebrate one of the most quietly essential careers in the history of video game music with a Composer Appreciation spotlight on Inon Zur. Born in Israel and classically trained from an early age, Zur initially built his career in film and television before being persuaded to score his first game... and never looked back. Over the decades that followed, he became the defining voice behind some of the most beloved franchises in gaming, crafting music that consistently prioritizes emotional honesty over spectacle. We explore the remarkable range Zur brings to every project, from intimate character themes and sweeping fantasy epics to militaristic tension and sci-fi wonder. A three-time award winner, a Recording Academy inductee, and a composer whose main theme for a major 2023 release reportedly went through twenty-nine versions before it was right, Zur is an artist who has never stopped pushing. This episode is a proper tribute to a man whose fingerprints are all over the medium we love.

Special thanks to our Executive Producers: Jexak, Xancu, Jeff & Mike.

In this episode, I sit down with Taylor Eigsti, and this conversation goes everywhere I hoped it would. We talk about preparation versus spontaneity, writing music that leaves room for the present moment, and why the best ensembles feel more like carefully cast films than perfectly rehearsed machines.Taylor shares what it's been like working recently with Michael League, Ben Wendel, Kendrick Scott, Antonio Sánchez, and others, and we get deep into his compositional mindset—why quantity matters, why “bad ideas” are necessary, and how composition is a muscle that has to be exercised. We also talk about his Grammy-winning albums Tree Falls and Plot Armor, the long studio hours behind them, and why recognition doesn't always translate the way people expect.Along the way, we hit on collaboration, identity, touring life, teaching, football fandom, and what it really means to show up prepared and fully present for the moment that actually matters—the short window onstage when everything finally comes alive.Music from the Episode:Let You Bee (Taylor Eigsti)Bucket of F's (Taylor Eigsti)Look Around You (Taylor Eigsti)Thank you for listening.

Health Hats walks & floats through ancient Maya caves in Belize with forearm crutches, teamwork, trust, and shared decision-making every step of the way. Watch this episode on YouTube. Audio is published, but not the same Podcast episode on YouTube Summary What does it take to go cave tubing in Belize when you use forearm crutches and have no electric wheelchair? For Danny van Leeuwen, it takes the 3 T’s: Time (a half-mile walk), Trust (in guides and companions), and Talk (real-time decisions about stairs vs. river crossings). HHP245 is a first-person GoPro video of Danny floating through the sacred Caves Branch River — ancient Maya ceremonial grounds — with his wife and friend Linda. It’s part adventure, part health advocacy, and part proof that with the right team, you can push your capabilities further than you thought. Click here to view the printable newsletter with images.

In Belize, floating in a tube through caves and snorkeling stretched me. How can tubing stretch anything? It's passive floating. The event included a mile-long walk to the cave entrance – relatively flat with some steps and wading across the river, a mere six-inches deep. No electric wheelchair, just my forearm crutches. Our guide and my compatriots shared in the decision-making and assisted me. This video episode was taken with a GoPro camera hanging around my neck. Watch the video. Reading will not give you the flavor. Narrative Let me tell you a little bit about where we are what you’ll see. Excuse me, as I will be certainly butchering some of the names of stuff. So where we are is Nohoch Che’en Caves, Branch Archeological Reserve, also called the Caves Branch River. It’s in the Cayo District, and districts are like provinces or states. It’s by far the most famous cave tubing destination in Belize and one of the most unique in the world. So this was sacred to the ancient Maya. They were considered portal to Xibalba, the Maya underworld. This wasn’t just mythology. The Maya actively used these caves for religious rituals and ceremonies, particularly during times of drought when they needed to communicate with the rain God, chaac. I don’t know. Archeologists have found ceramic offerings, jade artifacts and human remains inside; evidence of sacrificial rights dating back over 2000 years. The caves were largely forgotten after the Maya civilization declined and weren’t widely known to the outside world until the 1980s and nineties when the Belizean guides and explorers began documenting them and it became a active tourist destination in the early two thousands. So the Caves Branch River flows through a network of limestone caves carved out over millions of years. The system I floated on. Is part of a much larger Karst landscape riddled with interconnected caves. Some of them still unexplored. Pretty amazing, huh? Reflection That was it. Fifteen minutes of about an hour total time and 30 minutes of recording. I hope it gives you a flavor of what we did. It was awesome. I will be producing a couple more videos from Belize over the next few months. The next video will be of the Mayan ruins, then making tortillas and tamales, and then, we'll see.

Atticus Derrickson is a composer and music producer who recently scored The Black Phone 2. He is also the son of Scott Derrickson, director of both Black Phone movies, Sinister, and many others. In this conversation, Atticus and I get into composing horror scores, how to achieve fear through sound design, and much much more.Show NotesMovies and TV MentionedThe Black Phone 2The Black PhoneSinisterV/H/S 85SmileThe WitchThe LighthouseShadow Crawler (Short)People & Artists MentionedChristopher YoungTangerine DreamVangelisCliff MartinezMark Korven (including his “Apprehension Engine”)Throbbing GristleChris Carter (Throbbing Gristle member referenced in gear discussion)Ulver (band whose music is used in the Sinister tapes discussion)Scott DerricksonJoe HillAdam HendricksLou Ford (editor)Luciano (sound designer)Marina Moore (string player)Robert EggersGear and Music Tech MentionedProphet synthesizer, including Prophet-5 and Prophet-10John Carpenter style synthCrystallizer pedal recreation from Dirt Monger InstrumentsLogic Pro XCanter reel (used to create drone textures)Dulcimer (used in experimentation)Atmos and surround mixing formats, including 5.1Physical MediaWaxwork Records vinyl release for The Black Phone 2 soundtrackKey TakeawaysStart early and let tone guide the whole production.Atticus began writing tonal score pieces before the script was even finished. That let production carry his music into the shoot, so the score could help dictate direction. A lot of those early pieces ended up in the final film because they already lived inside the world of the story—and inside the director's head.This is why Atticus recommends avoiding temp tracks: they can be a trap, tying you to a specific (often derivative) sound instead of pushing you toward something new. Working this far upstream also allows for a more holistic approach to scoring the film. The tone and feeling of Black Phone 2 is one of the things that made it so distinctive, and a big reason is that the score was completely original rather than shaped by temp music.Merge score and sound design for unified texture.Atticus describes a constant collaboration with the sound designer and mixer so elements like static, wind, and snowy ambience could interlock with the music instead of competing with it. The goal was one cohesive system—where sound design and score feel like the same organism. As a result, the movie has a very strong sense of surrealism that makes you feel like you're in a very beautiful nightmare.Protect what's working.Atticus told a story about a final music cue that had to be shortened to fit the edit. When he tried to cut it down, he realized it damaged the overall effect, so he fought to keep the full cue intact—and won. As a result, the scene works beautifully. Whether it's a music cue or any other element, sometimes something is perfect as-is and it's the surrounding pieces that need to be reshaped to support it. When something is working, protect it.Follow Atticus Derrickson at:IMBd: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm12279894/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/atticusderricksonSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/1ZAQG5e9sxTTkxKjr5OcLs?si=bT32GgkJTpKHqThqabqT1A

Today ON VINYL VIBRATIONS I FEATURE THE MUSIC OF the MULTI-TALENTED, Camille Saint-Saens. M1 Saint-Saens: Symphony No.1 in E Flat, Op 2, III Adagio, (Saint-Saens 1853), Capitol Records/Angel, 1973 (10:00) M2 SAINT-SAENS: Symphony No.2 in A Minor, Op 55, II Adagio, (Saint-Saens 1859), Capitol Records/Angel, 1973 (3:59) M3 Symphony No.2 in A Minor, Op 55, IV Prestissimo, (Saint-Saens 1859), Capitol Records/Angel, 1973 (7:19) M4 Saint-Saens: Symphony No.3 in C Minor Op 78 (Organ Symphony), Philadelphia Orchestra, I Allegro Moderato, Poco adagio, (Saint-Saens 1886) Columbia Records, 1963 (9:00) M5 Saint-Saens: Symphony No.3 in C Minor Op 78 (Organ Symphony), Philadelphia Orchestra, II Maestoso, Allegro, (Saint-Saens 1886) Columbia Records, 1963 (7:20) M6 The Swan – The Carnival of the Animals XIII, (Saint-Saens 1886), Silhouettes -Virgil Fox/Organ” Capitol Records, 1960 (2:39) Saint-Saens lived from 1835 to 1921, and was born in PARIS. He was a composer, organist, conductor and pianist of the Romantic Era, that's music that was featured throughout the 19th century. He was a musical prodigy, of course. He had perfect pitch. A grand aunt taught him some piano basics at three, and he was a music pupil at the age of 7. He gave informal performances at the age of 5, and his public debut was at age 10 performing the music of Mozart and Beethoven. He and studied at the Paris Conservatoire starting at age 13 to age 18. His first “job” was a ORGANIST at the Saint Merri Church – 26,000 parishioners. That sounds like a typical trajectory for a young musical prodigy. But, unlike other music students, Saint-Saens had a broad focus. He was a multi-tracker of the day, with varying and distinguished interests such as the study of Latin, Greek, Divinity and Mathematics. He was talented amateur Astronomer throughout his adult life. In today's podcast I review portions of 4 SAINT-SAENS COMPOSITIONS, pieces composed between 1853 and 1886, or when Saint-Saens was from the age of 17 to 50. We will hear 6 movements from 4 works – those 4 works are Symphony No. 1 Symphony No. 2 Symphony No. 3 Carnival of the Animals
Composer Sean Hickey joins The Piano Pod to discuss Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind — his monumental piano cycle inspired by Yuval Noah Harari's bestselling book. From imagined orders and human cooperation to empire, biology, AI, and the future of artistic sustainability, this episode explores what it means to create — and remain human — in a rapidly changing world. Performed by pianist Vladimir Rumyantsev, Sapiens translates big philosophical questions into sound, structure, and silence. This conversation moves from macro-history to the deeply personal — from Detroit and electric guitar to leading major recording labels — and ultimately asks: What allows music to endure?

Composer, producer and multi-instrumentalist Emily Wells works in the space between art-pop and neoclassical chamber music using electronic and acoustic instruments: synths, strings, and hip-hop production in elegant layers to support her singular and dramatic vocals. For her 2019 album, This World Is Too _____ For You she expanded her sonic palate to include a string quintet and French horn for a collection of swirling and dramatic chamber-pop showpieces. Together with the Grammy-nominated chamber orchestra the New York-based Metropolis Ensemble, and drummer Shayna Dunkleman (Xiu Xiu, Peptalk), she performs some of these songs, in-studio. (From the Archives, 2019.) Set list: 1. Misconceptions On Forever 2. Stay Up 3. Hymn For The New World

In this episode, I'm joined by Simon Oslender, and I'm not exaggerating when I say his playing lit me up the first time I heard it: pure joy, but with real depth underneath. We talk about growing up in a deeply musical home, starting on drums, and the exact “big bang” moment when a John Mayall live DVD (and Tom Canning on Hammond B3) made Simon lock in on the organ for life.We get into Simon's early recording experiments, how he writes (often away from the instrument, grabbing voice memos before ideas disappear), and his relationship with theory—especially his favorite framing: theory shouldn't tell you what to do, it should explain what you're hearing. And then we go deep on the dream-team reality of All That Matters: recording with Steve Gadd and Will Lee and how that session turned into a tour, and what it takes to keep your head straight when your heroes show up fully prepared to play your music.Music from the Episode:On a Roll (Simon Oslender)In Good Hands (Simon Oslender)Cruisin' (Simon Oslender)Quite Logical (Simon Oslender)Thank you for listening.

Episode 359 features Hannah Sandoz, a performer-composer out of Chicago. In the interview we talked a lot about DIY touring, songwriting, and the ChiTown music scene. I featured “dominator1” on this episode, and if you like it you can stream it wherever you listen to music. Hann Sandoz creates music that holds you while you cry, weaving tender lyrics with lush, intimate arrangements for guitar, vocals, and laptop. After first writing songs as a teen using scrappy recording techniques and candid, emotionally raw lyrics, they went on to study classical composition and production at the Oberlin Conservatory. That background shaped a reverent creative practice centered on tenderness, shared experience, and emotional memory. We also dive into their latest release, MF / HS, which came out in October 2025, four years after relocating to Chicago. To support the record, Hann hit the road for a true DIY run, touring 6,000 miles in just two weeks across the West Coast, playing independent venues like Junior High in LA and Kilowatt in San Francisco. With ethereal vocals and gauzy, rural-tinged instrumentals that will resonate with fans of Adrianne Lenker, Grouper, and Animal Collective, this is a conversation you do not want to miss. Please follow, rate, or review the podcast wherever you are streaming if you'd like to help us out. -- Part-Time Rockstar Productions is available in the DMV for music videos and live filming.

Haitink Conducts Mahler 2 by CSO Association
What is a cover song? It's an act of devotion, an organic transmission from the essence of one soul into and through another. And, sometimes, by way of the revelations of time and lived experience, one might even surpass the original. Prior to the era of electronic recording, no one “owned” their songs; they were passed on from generation to generation, and neighbor to neighbor - shared and mutating like the living organisms they were. We still retain an instinct to study art through imitation, but if the original exists, why bother? Because we are inspired - (meaning our beings are filled with the breath of their genius) - and we want to capture, and share a bit of that magic. The Splendid Bohemians are proud to present a new series called “Cover Art - The Splendor of the Cover Song,” in which we'll choose a selection of great covers of artists we cherish, by other artists that we love, or want to know more about, or have been surprised by. For our maiden voyage we chose Van Morrison - one of the most dynamic and multi-faceted songwriters of his generation. We'll go beyond the expected choices like “Gloria” and “Brown Eyed Girl” (two of the most covered numbers in Rock) to explore the deeper recesses of Van's catalogue, and excavate some precious musical gems. Enjoy!Below is the list of selections, the artists, and the source material:WILD NIGHT / JOHN MELLENCAMP AND MESHELL NDEGEOCELLO ( From: Tupelo Honey, 1971)BRIGHT SIDE OF THE ROAD / RAUL MALO (From: Into the Music, 1979)INTO THE MYSTIC / ALLMAN BROTHERS (From: Moondance, 1970)THE WAY YOUNG LOVERS DO / JEFF BUCKLEY (From: Astral Weeks, 1968)GLAD TIDINGS / MERRY CLAYTON (From: Moondance, 1970)MOONDANCE / GREG BROWN (From: Moondance, 1970) SLIM SLO SLIDER / JOHNNY RIVERS (From: Astral Weeks, 1968)MADAME GEORGE / MARIANNE FAITHFUL (From: Astral Weeks, 1968)FULL FORCE GALE / ELVIS COSTELLO (From: Into the Music, 1979)BRAND NEW DAY / ESTHER PHILLIPS WITH THE DIXIE FLYERS (From: Moondance, 1970)

On today's episode of The Jimmy Rex Show, Jimmy sits down with Kurt Bestor — two-time Emmy Award winner, Grammy-nominated composer, and one of the most recognized musical storytellers in the country.They talk about what it means to create work that outlives you, why music can carry emotion further than words, and how Kurt thinks about legacy as impact, not ego. Kurt shares how the industry has changed from the early days of recording and networking to the modern world of streaming, social media, and constant noise — and why live performance still matters more than ever.Jimmy and Kurt also go deep on creativity, curiosity, and the mindset that keeps Kurt evolving at 67. They break down the role of technology and AI in music, what AI can actually help with, what it can't replace, and why the “human” part of art is the whole point. Then Kurt tells the real story behind “Prayer of the Children” — how it came to him, what was happening in the world when he wrote it, and why it continues to resonate across generations.A powerful conversation about art, purpose, staying sharp, and making something real.
SEASON 2 - EPISODE 180 - Nicholas Britell - Composer In this episode of the Team Deakins Podcast, we speak with composer Nicholas Britell (JAY KELLY, DON'T LOOK UP, MOONLIGHT). "How can a score function within a film?" is the question driving most of our conversation with Nicholas, and throughout the episode he generously provides insight into his process and recalls several examples from his own work to demonstrate how he and his directors arrived at specific pieces of music. We also reflect on the varying natures of scores across film history, and Nicholas shares the challenges of composing for television. He also shares the types of conversations he has with directors after he's brought onto a project, and we learn how he developed the themes for JAY KELLY, DON'T LOOK UP, and THE BIG SHORT. In addition to composing full scores, Nicholas has also contributed music heard within a film's world—during the development of 12 YEARS A SLAVE, he was brought on to compose the songs played in individual scenes, and he reflects on how he balanced the music as both a dramatic element and a piece of history. - Recommended Viewing: DON'T LOOK UP - This episode is sponsored by Picture Shop & Aputure
