The VSL Podcast - Show 49 (Interview with Brian Tyler Part I)
30/05/08 16:44
Another busy month for me yet again. Starship Farragut is starting to demand more of my attention with it's new Vignette episode. It's been really fun to work on because the music will be more song-like, than the typical score. And since it's a Vignette (Short Episode) it won't take months to finish. They're still debating over how it should begin so I have some time to brush up the rest of the music. And we're starting to push ahead with music for the new animated show. Which is quite 1970's in style. Although as you can imagine it's not the easiest thing to do those Jazzy Brass hits with a sample library designed for symphonies .. but it's coming together nicely.
Anyways, on with the show. In this months show I play the final pieces of the Podcast competition that I, for some reason I can't fathom, missed out. So Elan Hickler, Matt Gates, and Todd Jones, are played to complete this event. I show a little demo of a piece I did that uses the new VI -Upright Bass which I recently bought from VSL.
And of course it's Part I of my Interview with Brian Tyler. He talks to me about his work, his life and some of his favourite projects from the last few years. We geek out about Sci-fi and fantasy comics and generally put the musical world to rights. A terrific guy and I am really proud to have him on my show. Part II will come on the next show but it will be in July as I will be away for the month of June.
