On this special episode of Piecing It Together, composer and podcaster Brian Skutle joins me to take a look back at 2024 and some of our favorite film scores of the year! It was a big year for movies and we get into a lot of great picks from some of the more celebrated scores like The Brutalist and Conclave to some more more out of left field picks like Daddio, The Colors Within and A Different Man!

As always, SPOILER ALERT for any of the movies we discuss!

My latest David Rosen album MISSING PIECES: 2018-2024 is a compilation album that fills in the gaps in unreleased music made during the sessions for 2018's A Different Kind Of Dream, 2020's David Rosen, 2022's MORE CONTENT and 2025's upcoming And Other Unexplained Phenomena.
