Golden Globes host Nikki Glaser paid tribute to late director Rob Reiner with a 'Spinal Tap' hat at the end of the 2026 ceremony: 'This one went to 11,' the comedian said while she wore the cap.
“Lando’s Redemption” from #StarWarsOutlaws DLC is my most melodically complex piece yet – referencing Williams’ Lando & Rebel motifs as well as @joneverist.bsky.social 's Rebel theme from Outlaws, to convey his suave veneer & grave sense of duty.
Here's a #gamemusic analysis of the themes!
Family themes are a treat to write… especially when paired with apocalyptic terror. 🤘🏻
Director: “The bad guys need a badass theme.”
Me:
A series I scored has its two episode premiere tomorrow at a local theatre in Greenville, SC. It’s a super special project, made entirely in the upstate here. 🥰
Here’s a look at some of the music (thread):

Eternally grateful for @tomjurassic.bsky.social for writing the scene, way back in season one, that naturally pulled this out of me. 🦖

Finally making great progress on some “behind the score” content for #TalesFromAJurassicWorld
Featuring some of the actual notated score and video of all of the talented musicians who took part.
Almost done scoring the first episode of a very exciting series made in the South Carolina Upstate.
Can’t wait to share more soon!

1/3 Last March I had the immense pleasure of working with the folks at FAMES Project for my first recording project featuring a sizeable orchestra.
Official music videos as well as the official track release coming very soon. 🦖

Last night I saw #JurassicWorldRebirth
Dr. Henry Loomis is my favorite character of the World films. Johansson and Bailey’s chemistry was through the roof.
Desplat ate that up - best use of the Jurassic Park theme since the first film.
Film look was refreshing.

Man that SoundCloud news is disheartening. All of my past releases have been on there.
Figuring out a new home for my music.
ok then... deleted all our songs that we uploaded to Soundcloud and now closing account:

This draft names an extremely common. And veterans like Koepp always keep up-to-date with their drafts. Especially with scripts they’re aiming to sell.
Music creation startup Splice buys London-based orchestral sound studio Spitfire Audio, a source says for ~$50M; sources say Splice has $100M+ in annual revenue (Anna Nicolaou/Financial Times)

A confusing mess. Still trying to figure out what happened.
Spitfire being acquired/ dissolving was not on my 2025 bingo card.
Kontakt Screenshot, but here's a more detailed tutorial: (you will need the FULL version of Kontakt for this, not the free ones) 1) Go to Group Editor, hold down a note, and figure out what groups are actually triggering when you PLAY a note; often there's Release-triggered groups for when you let go of a note... you don't wanna touch those 2) In the Expert tab at the left of the Kontakt UI, you can select the groups you want. There'll be a speaker icon next to whatever's making sound 3) Now set these groups to Sampler in the Source section. This allows Kontakt to seek later within the sample when triggering notes 4) Add a Constant modulator within that Source section, and set it to Sample Start. You'll probably want a fairly low % value in the slider for orchestral libraries, like 3% or lower 5) You might have to adjust the Attack time to be *higher* now, down in the Modulation section in the Volume envelope, in order to compensate (in case this causes sound to just pop in). Try setting the Curve to a positive number for a legato attack 6) Lastly, you can get a bit fancy with this via extra modulations! For instance, in addition to the Constant modulator on SampleStart, you can try adding a Velocity modulator instead, so that the harder you press a note, the further in the sample starts (ie. bypassing more attack time). You can even add a Velocity modulator to the Volume envelope down in the Modulation section, and invert it so that there's less attack time the harder you press! 7) MAJOR CAVEAT: Several sample libraries these days have complex scripts that defeat Kontakt's internal velocity, controller, and note mapping, making it impossible to edit certain things. Unfortunately you'll just have to experiment to see which libraries let you do what. Always save backups / never overwrite the default patches - you never know what slight adjustments might royally screw up a patch unexpectedly. :-(
KONTAKT TIP: Some orchestral/acoustic sample libraries have inconvenient slow attack times in the recordings, so adjusting the Volume Envelope won’t help.
Try adding SampleStart modulation instead! Set the Source to Sampler, add a Constant mod set to SampleStart.

Gordy is an obviously great pick, especially with his background in Williams-forward VGM.
What a treat! Desplat joins the legacy of Jurassic composers and becomes Edwards’ first consecutive collaborator!
Also an unsurprising, but very welcomed, return to Abbey Road. 🔥🦖
‘THE LEGEND OF OCHI’ is fresh at 83% on Rotten Tomatoes. Now playing in theaters in NY & LA.
Read our review: bit.ly/DFOchi
Have seen come conflicting reporting about Nicholas Britell’s involvement in Season 2 of Andor - looks like he had some involvement (whatever that means) before stepping away and Brandon Roberts coming in. However, seems inaccurate to say he didn’t do anything for season 2
Stills are from great video from the studio that captured the session. Editing something together once we get further along the season. 😁
