@jesperkyd.bsky.social and I chat about his latest score collection for Warhammer 40k: Darktide (which is obscenely fun: crunchy, industrial, & danceable), some of his older game scores (including a personal fav, Freedom Fighters) & differences between scoring for film and video games

Check it out:

The BAFTA-winning HELLDIVERS 2 score was a loveletter to my 80s and 90s film music favorites, embracing both modern production as well as traditional scoring, with some of the most demanding orchestral writing I’ve ever composed.

Soundtrack is officially out! Available for streaming or purchasing just about anywhere. I can still remember my first meeting about the first Borderlands game. So cool to see the franchise blow up over the years like it has.
