09. Tomm Matthews - My Movie DNA
Listen now
Description
In episode nine, Johnny talks to the British composer, producer, DJ and violinist Tomm Matthews. For his soundtrack work, Tomm is a three-time Golden Bell nominee for Best Score/Best Sound Design. He’s written music for TV dramas, feature films & trailers as well as the theme music for a number of popular TV shows. This conversation was recorded in person in mid-January of 2023. We talk about the films of the Coen Brothers and Stanley Kubrick, discuss the cinematic crossover between Kenneth Branagh’s Shakespeare adaptations with the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and we trade tips on the best ways to trick your wife into watching horror movies. Many thanks to James Van As who wrote and performed the brilliant music (check out James' brilliant Loco Looper game), and to Willow Van As who designed the amazing artwork and provided general podcast support.
