We're Gonna Need A Bigger Pod

Sunday, 30 July 2023 - 1 hour 14 minutes

Jon Brown & Sean Wilson light the fuse on this explosive, not so top secret new episode of 'Scoreheads' with a motorcycle off a cliff style deep dive into the music of the biggest and best mission yet 'Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One', with the film's Composer Lorne Balfe.

Join the lads on this latest edition of the Podcast that celebrates Film, TV and Video Game music and the creators thereof, by sitting down with the many maestro’s involved industry wide to hear their stories about making the notes that emote.

Lorne has done incredible work over the last few years across a spectrum of media including outstanding music for huge IP’s as 'Assassins Creed', 'FIFA' and 'Skylanders', television series such as 'The Crown', 'Genius', 'His Dark Materials', 'Dopesick' and 'The Wheel Of Time' and blockbuster movies including DC's 'Black Adam', 'Bad Boys For Life', 'Dungeons & Dragons: Honour Among Thieves', Marvel's 'Black Widow', 'Tetris', 'Mission: Impossible Fallout', 'Top Gun: Maverick' and Jon's favourite film of the year so far (at the time of writing this) - 'Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One'.

Sean and Jon accepted the mission and chatted with Lorne for over an hour for this IMF style debrief on the soundtrack to Tom Cruise & Christopher McQuarrie's powerhouse of a cinematic adventure.
