Some time ago, we sat with Atli Örvarsson who not only is the man behind the BAFTA winning score of Apple TV's hit series 'Silo', but also a composer of album music (including works in collaboration with artists such as Ólafur Arnalds), and formerly a close collaborator with Hans Zimmer at Remote Control Productions. In this episode, we explore the wild and wonderful elements that make the musical world of Silo, alongside numerous nuggets of wisdom such as the beauty of soft-playing and close-micing.

We're also delighted to be joined by our good friend Haukur Karlsson, who guest hosted with us on the episode!
