    May 24 2024
    Jon Brown & Sean Wilson are back with a stunt worthy explosive bang and for this latest instalment, they're crashing through the sugar glass windows of your listening space to light up a fire in your ears with the return of the mighty Mr Dominic Lewis as their guest.

    Yes that’s right, the British born, California residing, multi talented musical magician has pulled some sonic stunts of his own recently, reteaming with iconic action director David Leitch on his cinematic adaptation of the TV classic ‘The Fall Guy’ with Hollywood heavyweights Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt starring in a film that goes big on stunts, stars, music, magic, action, adventure, laughs and even bigger on heart!

    So lend us your ear dear listener whilst we get our 80’s on for the best film you never saw in the 90’s, (but will be very glad if you go see it now) - a supremely fun and uplifting ode to movies of those times composed by that super chap that brought you the music for ‘The Man In The High Castle’, ‘Money Monster’, ‘Peter Rabbit’, ‘Peter Rabbit 2’, ‘Jolt’, ‘The Kings Man’, ‘Bullet Train’, ‘Spirited’, ‘Kaleidoscope’, ‘Violent Night’ and many, many more.

    Sean & Jon, caught up with Dom to discuss the musical heat behind ‘The Fall Guy’s’ beat - here on your latest episode… of ‘Scoreheads’.

    Mar 18 2024
    The Oscar & BAFTA winning Sound Editor & Sound Designer Johnnie Burn is our guest for this latest episode, as Jon Brown and Sean Wilson switch things up a bit and speak to a Composer not of music this time, but of sound.

    Working regularly with cinematic masterminds such as Jonathan Glazer, Yorgos Lanthimos and Jordan Peele, Johnnie’s work as a Sound Editor and Designer is a glorious collection of carefully crafted and innovational soundscapes.

    Works of art in their own audible right, Johnnie's craftsmanship can be heard within many critically celebrated films such as 'Under The Skin', 'The Lobster', 'The Favourite', 'The Killing Of A Sacred Deer', 'Ammonite', 'Nope', 'Poor Things' and 'The Zone Of Interest' - for which he won both a BAFTA and an Oscar for his work.

    32: Scoreheads Presents John Powell on the Music of 'Migration', 'How To Train Your Dragon' & more!
    Feb 14 2024
    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)

    31: Scoreheads Presents Laura Karpman on the Music of 'The Marvels', 'What If?' & more!
    Jan 29 2024
    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!
