This week I’m joined by Martin Gratton, an amazingly prolific media composer specialising in library and production music. Find out how Martin releases 150 tracks per year!
For all podcast links, resources, and episodes, head to https://soundtrack.academy/podcast
If you own a television, you’ll have almost definitely heard Martin’s music at some point. With syncs on all major television networks, on shows such as The Apprentice, and on campaigns from the likes of Samsung, Wilkos, and Fanta, to name a few - Martin is an incredibly prolific writer. Alongside his production music, he’s also written for many short films, contributed to feature films, and is even writing the music for a musical.
