An Interview with Nathan Micay

My latest guest is DJ-turned-media composer Nathan Micay! While those fans of techno, house, and trance clubbing across the world might be familiar with Nathan's work in those scenes, he's recently branched out into scoring for film and tv. In fact, his first big break was with HBO's Industry, season 2 of which has just released. Of course, Nathan and I dive into his work on the show (including the palette, creating motifs, and putting together the forthcoming score release), while also touching on far-flung topics like his love of David and Thomas Newman scores (especially for the first two Mighty Ducks films) and the state of the music industry.

Both seasons of Industry are on HBO in the US and I believe season 2 has just released on BBC Two in the UK. Nathan's score should be out later this November, with a vinyl release coming early 2023, but you can hear Nathan's season 1 score (and much the rest of his music) on various digital platforms or in physical formats.
