HANS ZIMMER's new AUDIO interview on ON THE SCORE

"In a holiday season where the phrase “game-changer” is bandied about like no one’s Hollywood business, few composers truly fit the term like Hans Zimmer. Ascending as an assistant to composer Stanley Meyers on such scores as “Moonlighting” and “My Beautiful Launderette,” the German-born Zimmer now commands the massive, art-filled domain of Remote Control in Santa Monica. In this workaholic studio, the composer and his team have created a distinctly melodic, Oscar-winning sound that’s changed the sound of movies big and small with the diversely numerous likes of “Backdraft,” “The Lion King” “The Dark Knight,” “Black Hawk Down,” “The Last Samurai” and “Spanglish.” In the collaborative process, Zimmer has helped sent out such talent into the scoring world as John Powell (“The Bourne Identity”), Trevor Rabin “(“Armageddon”), Ramin Djawadi (“Iron Man”) and Harry Gregson-Williams (“The Chronicles of Narnia”)."
