Chatting to our host Charles Steinberg at his LA-based studio, Michael shares his perspective on the different sounds of strings, the indisputable horror of rabbits, and the surprise that often comes when watching the finished film, as well as his other initiative outside of scoring: the Composers Diversity Collective.

The gumption of Son Lux has landed them in some unusual places, not least of which was at the helm of scoring one of the most unusual films ever made – Everything Everywhere All at Once.

Leopold Ross

Season 2 · Episode 7

Monday, January 27, 2025 • Duration 44:01

Leo Ross’s occupation as a composer has certainly been gaining steam. After an early music career of playing in and writing music for his bands, Ross transitioned into scoring under the wing of his older brother Atticus, merging the ethos of band culture into his new field while collaborating with Atticus and others on all of his projects. Now Leo Ross’s immersion into the scoring life is full fledged. His collaborative score for Shōgun was the belle of this TV season, and his solo score for Monarch: Legacy of Monsters has given him room to explore his individual style. Before all of this, Leo sat down with Charles at a hotel in Los Angeles. Here is their conversation.

Season 1 · Episode 3

Monday, January 27, 2025 • Duration 37:13

Two seasons in, the HBO/BBC series Industry has become one the sharpest, most riveting productions on television.
