  • We're taking to the skies once more this week as 'How To Train Your Dragon' master maestro John Powell joins Jon Brown and Sean Wilson for this latest episode of the Podcast that celebrates the people that make the notes that emote.

    For this week’s show we’re set to soar as one of the masters of making the music for flight - the iconic and multi award winning Hollywood film Composer John Powell joins us on this all new Scoreheads.

    He’s a British Composer, now residing in Los Angeles and is known for his incredible work on well over 70 feature films.

    Initially starting out as part of Hans Zimmer’s Media Ventures (now Remote Control Productions) John worked and collaborated on a number of now well loved animated scores including Dreamworks’ ‘Antz’, ‘Chicken Run’ and ‘Shrek’ with Harry Gregson-Williams and ‘The Road To Eldorado’ with Hans Zimmer, as well as feature films such as ‘Face / Off’ and ‘Forces Of Nature’.

    He then went on to make his own mark in the film music space with outstanding work on the scores for the Jason Bourne films, ‘Robots’, ‘Mr & Mrs Smith’, the ‘Ice Age’ sequels, ‘X-Men: The Last Stand’, ‘Kung Fu Panda’ (again working with Hans Zimmer), ‘Knight and Day’ the ‘Rio’ movies, all three instalments of the groundbreaking ‘How To Train Your Dragon’, ‘The Call Of The Wild’, ‘Solo: A Star Wars Story’ and many, many more.

    Recently he’s been celebrated and praised for his inventive work on scores for films like ‘Don’t Worry Darling’, the beautiful and heartwarming ‘Still: A Michael J. Fox Movie’ and the film that’s currently entertaining families in cinemas across the UK - Illumination’s ‘Migration’ - seeing our maestro return to writing for flight in the animated storytelling realm.

    John joined Sean Wilson & Jon Brown for this expanded edition of 'Scoreheads' with an additional 15 minutes of chat, never before heard anywhere else. (A version of this Podcast was recently broadcast on Sunday 11th February at 6pm (UK) on Express FM)

  • In honour of the upcoming Disney+ and 4K, Blu-Ray and DVD debut of Marvel Studios supersonic female led adventure 'The Marvels' and the imminent UK cinema release of the superb 'American Fiction' (for which our guest has since received her first Oscar nomination), here's another chance to hear Jon Brown & Sean Wilson's chat with the outstanding Composer of the soundtracks to both those projects - Laura Karpman.

    If you’re hearing about Laura for the first time, well, she’s a bold, incandescent talent who creates powerful, imaginative scores that push the boundaries of storytelling.

    Her award-winning music, spanning film, television, theatre, interactive media and live performance, reflects an audaciously creative, prodigious, fresh spirit who has collaborated with the most creative filmmakers of our time, including Misha Green, Steven Spielberg, Nia DaCosta, Kevin Feige, Alex Gibney, Kasi Lemmons, Sam Pollard and Eleanor, Francis Ford & Sophia Coppola.

    Her recent foray into the Marvel Universe has her scoring the eclectic animated series ‘What If?’ and the newly acclaimed Ms. Marvel which blends bold, driving, heroic orchestral music with authentic South Asian elements to create a unique sound for this ground-breaking superhero.

    Across concert halls, Karpman is well known for her Grammy award-winning album, ASK YOUR MAMA, a multimedia opera based on the iconic cycle of poems by Langston Hughes.

    A fierce champion for inclusion in Hollywood, after founding the Alliance for Women Film Composers, Karpman became the first woman governor in the music branch of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, and was subsequently elected to be the first female governor of the music branch.

    Presented here for the first time - is a never before heard, expanded version of Jon & Sean's chat with Laura recorded over Thanksgiving 2023, featuring additional unheard interview material that includes wider discussions on Laura's music for ‘The Marvels’, the debut of ‘What If’ Season 2 on Disney+, her role with The Alliance For Women Film Composers & so much more!

  • Jon Brown & Sean Wilson are back on the case, as they search for clues in their investigation to find out the secrets of the wonderful Hildur Guðnadóttir's score for Kenneth Branagh's latest outing as Poirot in front of the camera and once again as director behind the camera for the Agatha Christie inspired 'A Haunting In Venice'.

    Join the lads on this latest edition of the Podcast that celebrates Film, TV and Video Game music and the creators thereof, by sitting down with the many maestro’s involved industry wide to hear their stories about making the notes that emote.

    Hildur is a multi award winning Icelandic musician and composer who has garnered praise for her work scoring cinematic films such as 'Sicario: Day Of The Soldado', Todd Field’s critically acclaimed film ‘Tar’, Sarah Polley’s exceptional picture ‘Women Talking’ and Todd Phillips’ outstanding DC Comics movie ‘Joker’ for which her superb score won her the trifecta - a Golden Globe, a BAFTA and an Oscar.

    She’s also no stranger to home entertainment having garnered much deserved praise and awards for her craft in the creation of the score to hit series ‘Chernobyl’ and has even expertly tackled the soundscapes of the video game realm with her husband Sam Slater on the game ‘Battlefield 2042.

    Lately, asides from working on the much anticipated follow up to 'Joker' for director Todd Phillips of course, she’s been working, as we mentioned before, with director Kenneth Branagh composing the score for ‘A Haunting In Venice’ which is the latest entry into his film adaptations as director and star of the great work of the late Agatha Christie.

    Sean and Jon caught up with the magnificent Hildur to talk more about her creative process and on scoring the sound of Poirot's World….
