ASTS 008: Guest Ben Wise, composer and musician

In this episode, my guest is composer and musician Ben Wise. Ben writes, records and performs both with the indie/folk band TINY Goliath and as a solo artist. In the early 2000's, he began a career scoring commercials (i.e. "jingle writer"), a move which then grew to include web series, animated shorts and short films, including winning awards for the latter. We talk about his musical background, pop music, commercial jingles and film music. Contact Ben on Twitter and Instagram at @benwise and on Facebook at facebook.com/benwisemusic. The folk band TINY Goliath can be found at tinygoliath.bandcamp.com.

Om Podcasten

A Score To Settle was initially my blog in which I discussed my soundtrack collection in relation to personal moments and memories. After a number of years, I decided to expand this topic into a podcast, so I could share more about the music. Retaining the same name, A Score To Settle is a podcast about music composed for Film and Television, through my own analysis of specific scores and album releases, overviews of certain composer careers and also interviews, both with those working in the industry and fellow fans.
