Cody Matthew Johnson - Devil May Cry 5: Subhuman
Cody Matthew Johnson is a multi-media composer, music producer, sound designer, and multi-instrumentalist. While obtaining his Bachelor of Music in Composition Scoring for Visual Media, he began to work alongside critically acclaimed composer Jeff Rona (“Far Cry 4”, “God of War III”) composing additional music, producing, and mixing a variety of TV, film and game projects. He is credited on scores for TNT’s “Claws”, Sony’s PSN debut series “Powers”, and a variety of feature films and documentaries.
Johnson first caught Capcom’s attention with his remixes of classic Capcom and Marvel character theme songs for “Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite”, including “Devil May Cry 3”, “Spider-Man”, “Captain America”, “Mega Man”, and “Ghosts n’ Goblins.”
In this episode, we continue our exploration some of the music from Devil May Cry 5 - the latest in the Devil May Cry video game franchise directed by Hideaki Itsuno. In episode 73, we heard from composer Jeff Rona and his work on the piece, "Crimson Tide" representing one of game's demon hunters, "V," and now we hear from Cody Matthew Johnson who shares his story about the new theme for another of the game's demon hunters "Dante."
Cody Matthew Johnson talks about how he came onto the project and what it was like to write music for a character that he had previously remixed. He describes how he approached writing his piece for a series which had already established a strong musical history. Like Rona, he talks about the difference in how the music is used in the game itself as opposed to the piece on the soundtrack.
