“Human Hunt” is one of the strongest action cues of the past few years. The Goldsmith quotes (instrumentally and in terms of motifs) have been perfectly transformed into a more contemporary Hollywood sound without losing the modernistic flair of the original. Really a great piece! Apart from “Very Clever Apes”, this is unfortunately the only cue in the score that clearly stands out from the expectedly heavily Giacchino-influenced mass. However, I also really like "A New Age" with its brutal 11/8 ostinato. I'm positively surprised by the score. Very refreshing that the producers and their hired composer have finally decided to pay tribute to Goldsmith and that John has delivered a pretty solid score of his own!

Amazing interview! This is a really underrated channel btw, keep it up!
Excellent interview. I wasn't too familiar with Paesano prior to his KINGDOM score, but I've become an instant fan.
What resources (free and paid ones) could you recommend to learn for film scoring?
Thank you!
