It IS Halloween! This spooky season Andy chats with Killer Klowns movie composer John Massari! John talks about adapting the Klowns score to a live to film concert, music education in the 70s, and his love for vintage synthesizers. John has some juicy behind the scenes stories while working on the music for B-movies like the Snake Eater Trilogy, Retro Puppet Master and Kickboxer 5. They also chat about how music production has changed over the years, scoring mobisodes, and being a kid on Halloween during the Cuban missile crisis. And to keep things Halloweeny, Andy is joined by Mike Mendoza to, sort of, talk about Halloween stuff.
