I had the absolute pleasure of interviewing Yoav Goren on the Trailer Music Composer’s podcast.

For those of you who don’t know Yoav, is the co-founder of Immediate music with Jeff Fayman. Together they played an enormous part in shaping the railer music world and even the epic music world as we know it. Yoav and Jeff also went on to found 1 Revolution music which is a production music company focused on producing music for use on TV.

Yoav is also the man behind Globus, the epic music artist that introduced me to epic music. As you can imagine I was very happy to be able to thank him in person for that!

We also shared the same ideas behind the importance of joy and playfulness in what we do and also the plain and simple fact that we must share what we create as a matter of course!

In the show we discuss:

• The importance of joy in music creation
• Realising that what you create is a gift to the world
• How Globus was created
• How to approach writing music for custom scoring work
• The importance of layering live instruments with samples

Links mentioned in the show:

• Globus Cinematica
• Keyscape
• Ascend
• Novo Strings
• Los Angeles Scoring Strings
• Spitfire Audio Abbey Road 
• Cinesamples Brass
• Spitfire Symphonic Brass
• East West Symphonic Orchestra 
• SoundToys EchoBoy
• OTT
• Melodyne

In today's episode we get a question from Stephen Tallamy, in fact it is a string of excellent questions about what composers should expect in terms of timelines; of releases, first placements, receiving royalties, and track performance.

A ton of great info and of course I get sidetracked along the way talking about purpose, meaning and self care.

About five years ago I was asked to write some music for an album aimed at TV spots. Each rack was to be full of character, weird sounds, and all manner of stops.

One of those tracks just landed on a Halo trailer (gasp!)

I want to share with you exactly how I created the music; what I was thinking at the start and how I developed it into an entire piece of trailer (production) music.

I wrote a piece of music for a trailerized string quartet last year. It recently got used on the trailer for The Lost King.

As you know I am a huge fan of sharing, especially sharing my knowledge, experience, and process.

Hooray, the first episode of 'Ask Rich'.  In this episode I answer a question from one of my listeners called Rob.

He asks if I can explain how to leave a review of The Trailer Music Composer's Podcast and if I am planning on launching a TMS version of Pianobook - a place where members of our community can upload their own sample libraries to offer for free to the whole community.

I decided to launch this with my own free instrument, the Chamber Cello.

I know what you are thinking (well I assume at least),

"Is Rich really gonna do an entire episode about DRONES in music!?"

Yes, yes I am and for good reason. There are one of those things that often people completely overlook as they are pretty basic.

I would suggest otherwise. You need to be making some time to get to know your drones and to give them their own life and identity because if you do =you will reap the rewards later on down the line when your drone stems get cut to trailers!

I have even written a really detailed blog post covering all the important stuff about drones in music and how you can make them yourself and even give them some more life.

In this episode I had the absolute pleasure of interviewing Christian Henson (@christianhensonmusic). An absolute legend of a man and a super nice dude! 

Once I got my initial fanboying out of the way Christian and I had a fascinating conversation about his earliest memories as a composer and how he got into the business, the origins of Spitfire audio, dealing with his anxiety and his "secret" to productivity.

I was incredibly honoured that Christian was so open and honest about his anxiety and hearing that one of the composers whom I look up to most has suffered from it too it was like a weight off my shoulders.

You will also be interested to hear that we both share similar ideas of what being "productive" looks like and how you can adapt that to your own life.

All this great stuff aside, I had a really fun chat and I know you guys are going to absolutely LOVE this episode!

In today's episode, I answer a question I received from one of my awesome TMCP listeners (and TMS customers).

The question was simply, "How to I establish genres in trailer music?"

As this kind of covers two distinct areas of the job I decided to cover both in the episode.

As you know I love helping people with this output so that is exactly why I have started asking for questions to be submitted to me to answer on the show.

I have been a working composer for almost 15 years now. I started in custom; it was exciting, it was fast paced, it was way out of my comfort zone. I LOVED IT.

Fast forward all those years and I am only now realising the effect that the custom way of life has effected me, not just as a composer but also as a human bean!

This episode is a bit of a self help for myself episode whilst also hoping that at least one of you will resonate with this struggle and hopefully it will help.

You know I love walkthroughs and you do too (I know you do). This one is a different one today. It's another trailerised "solo" violin track. This was one of thirty tracks I composed aimed at (pretty unashamedly) HBO promos, BBC dramas, and other thrillers alike.

Basically it is not necessary anymore and still very confusing for me and everyone else. Hee hee.

In this episode I walk you through my experience of recording strings and brass at Abbey Road Studios for an action adventure trailer music album.

As you can imagine I was super excited about this so I thought it would make an amazing podcast episode where I talked you through what was going through my head before and after the recording.

The great thing is that there were 6 clear lessons that have come out of this experience and I wanted to share them with you guys - my awesome listeners.

In this episode I talk to the award winning trailer music composer Kati Falk-Flores. Kati shared how she went from studying the French Horn (among other instruments) to learning the ropes of writing trailer music.

We talked a lot about the importance of a positive mental attitude and how it can help not only get you out of a funk but also lift those around you.

Kati Falk-Flores is a composer known for her start in trailer music. Her work has been recently featured in trailers like Venom 2: Let There Be Carnage, the Xbox Series X trailer, and Finch.

Kati has additionally written music for advertising and sonic branding, choral and orchestral works, and just finished a film scoring project.

In today’s episode I walk you through the Trailer Music that was used in A Very British Scandal.

This was a bit of a double win for me as this track was a track that I wrote when teaching how to write Emotional Solo String pieces for the Protege Pro students.

I’m gonna be totally honest here, I still suffer from bouts of imposter syndrome and fears of it all falling apart (ie not winning any more trailers and everyone finding out that I am a fraud).

Not easy to admit but feels pretty good and hopefully helps you realise that that stuff doesn’t just go away.

So, winning this trailer with this track was the proof in the pudding that I needed to remind me that the stuff I am teaching is relevant and useful still.

This after all is one of the purposes for Protege’s existence; to teach people how to write in many different styles and to make each track ready for sync (sale).

I hope you get a lot out of this walkthrough, I always really enjoy doing them.

Hey Guys,

In today’s episode I talk to trailer music and video game composer Sigurd Jøhnk-Jensen.

A few months ago he reached out to me on Instagram to tell me about his journey.  I was so inspired by Sigurd’s story that I had to get him on the show. 

Sigurd is a composer and live musician. Having toured Europe multiple times most recently with Blindstone and Walter Trout. Music composition credits mainly in video games and trailers include; Killing Floor, Marvels Eternals House Of Gucci, Scream and many more.

This episode was such a joy to record. Sigurd has a very wise head on his shoulders and delivers some absolute gems when it comes to your mental health and balancing your work with your life.

I came away from this interview wanting to be more kind to myself and I think you will too.

In this episode I show you how I composed the track ‘Monument’ that was featured in the trailer for the Netflix show, Archive 81.

This track was one of the ten tracks written for Elephant Music’s album, Throat 4.

The focus of this album was to bring throat singing to the fore and let vocals replace the cello that had become so popular.

I sketched out the entire album using only my voice and then slowly replaced those parts with other instruments and we even got a throat singer in to really hammer home that sound.

I really enjoyed writing this album as it felt so fresh and exciting.

In this episode I talk about feeling like I had lost my passion for writing music and how I re-ignited my spark.

Recently, maybe even over the last couple of years, I have been feeling a bit meh about writing music.

I didn’t really want to openly admit it, especially on my show/blog, but as you know I think being open about these types of struggles we all face is incredibly important to keep the mental dialogue open.

I have felt like I have just been running through the motions.

It wasn’t until I had the help and advice of some of my colleagues and fellow composers that I realised that I needed to get myself excited about writing music again.

In this episode I show you what tools I used and how they can help you to get you excited about your creative process again.

I really do hope it helps.

In today’s episode I take you behind the scenes of a track of mine that was used in the trailer for Netflix’s special, Britney vs Spears.

The track was a track I wrote for a two album release from Mammoth. The albums were solely epic drum intros aimed at action comedy trailers.

The effect of each track was to give the editors percussive tracks that started small, gave them good cut points, and also supplied enough drive and impact to create enough drama for their trailers.

I really enjoyed writing all of these 20 tracks and as this track was one of the first I was really happy to see it land on this trailer. 

I am also a huge fan of Britney Spears, so doubly awesome really.
