    38: Scoreheads Presents Stephen Schwartz & John Powell on the music of 'Wicked'
    2025/01/04
    As 'Wicked' fever continues to thrive, for this latest episode we’re taking a walk back to an illuminating interview that Jon & Sean conducted with the entirely brilliant Composer John Powell, who returns to this very Podcast following on from his chat about ‘Migration’ earlier last year.

    Joining him, an incredible treat in the form of iconic songwriter and lyricist for songs of the stage and screen, the masterful Mr Stephen Schwartz and both discussing the music of the feverishly popular and hugely successful film adaptation of ‘Wicked'.

    The interview, originally broadcast back in November on Express FM in line with the film's theatrical release, was, we are very happy to say, well received and now, for the first time and to celebrate the home release of the film this weekend, you can hear it completely uncut, in it’s full form, here on the ‘Scoreheads’ Podcast.

    Stephen Schwartz, is a multi award winning titan of the musical stage and screen in his role as a famed musical theatre and musical film Composer & Lyricist, who has written such hit musicals as ‘Godspell’, ‘Pippin’, and of course, ‘Wicked’.

    He has also contributed lyrics for a number of successful films, including ‘Pocahontas’, ‘The Hunchback Of Notre Dame’, ‘The Prince Of Egypt’, and ‘Enchanted’ and recently adapted his celebrated work on ‘Wicked’ for the silver screen, with our next guest.

    Our second guest, John Powell, is a returning guest and has worked with Stephen on both the score for ‘Wicked’ and in the late nineties, as part of Hans Zimmer's team on the soundtrack to Dreamworks first huge animated theatrical release ‘The Prince Of Egypt’.

    Since then of course and in-between both ‘The Prince Of Egypt’ and ‘Wicked’ he has composed music for some huge films, both animated and live action, including creating sensational music for ‘Antz’, ‘Chicken Run’ and ‘Shrek’ (with Harry Gregson-Williams), ‘Face / Off’, the 'Jason Bourne' films, ‘Robots’, ‘Mr & Mrs Smith’, ‘X-Men: The Last Stand’, the ‘Ice Age’ movies, ‘Happy Feet 1 & 2’, the ‘How To Train Your Dragon’ films, ‘Star Wars: A Solo Story’ and many, many more.

    They join Jon & Sean, on this latest episode of 'Scoreheads'.

    36: Scoreheads Presents - From The Archives - Doyle W. Donehoo on the Music of 'Aliens: Dark Descent'
    2024/09/07
    Presenting to you the next in our series of ‘From The Archives’ episodes where we revisit an interview with a Composer that was perhaps previously only heard via the medium of Radio and not yet available online or presented on another platform in another format in a shorter form or just to revisit to celebrate an anniversary or special occasion.

    In the case of this episode it’s all of the above as we celebrate the anniversary of the brilliant turn based video game based on the phenomenal ‘Alien’ franchise - ‘Aliens: Dark Descent’, the flurry of love for the superb DLC for the game in recent months, as well as the surge of ‘Alien’ mania that’s been going on recently with both the launch of ‘Alien: Romulus’ in cinemas and the announcement of ‘Alien: Earth’ on streaming this year.

    With all of that in mind, then who better to revisit for this classic episode from just over a year ago than one of the biggest, if not THE biggest fan of ‘Alien’ scores there is - Mr Doyle W. Donehoo, a Composer who himself got to live a lifelong dream of composing for the franchise with his superb score for ‘Aliens: Dark Descent’.

    No stranger to scoring for games - Doyle’s now infamous work in the 'Warhammer' universe has seen him write music for huge titles such as 'Warhammer 40, 000 Dawn Of War II', 'Dawn Of War II - Chaos Rising', 'Dawn Of War II - Retribution', 'Space Hulk: Deathwing', ‘Sniper: Path Of Vengeance’, ‘Sniper: Ghost Warrior’ and many, many more.

    Last year, Doyle joined Sean Wilson and Jon Brown to discuss his life, his work, his passion for science fiction, his love of music for the ‘Alien’ and ‘Star Wars’ films and much more.

    So please sit back and do enjoy this chat now for the first time ever to be released anywhere in it’s full, uncut, expanded glory as we revisit, at the height of ‘Alien’ fever - the music of the game ‘Aliens: Dark Descent’.

    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.
