On each new episode, host Charles Steinberg will get into it with a different character central in the production of music for the moving image. No doubt, many of these names will belong to composers, but the seat is open to all manner of artists. The skilled technicians and musicians who bring the compositions to life, music supervisors who source the recorded songs that shape the telling of a story, really any and all admirers and connoisseurs of this form of music who want to share their unique perspectives.

FINNEAS Hones His Composer Instincts on BEEF Season 2 Score
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
FINNEAS has been scoring for film and television for a few years now, and he's the first to say he's still figuring it out. In this conversation, Charles sits down with the composer and producer to talk through what the process actually looks like: building the wall-to-wall opening cue for Beef Season 2, navigating temp music when the benchmark is Bach, going back through a composer's catalogue the moment you fall in love with their work, and why deadlines might be the best thing that ever happened to his creative process.
