Composer, Dominik Scherrer (The Serpent, Baptiste, The Widow)

(TSAP S04E15)

In this episode, Sam is joined by composer, Dominik Scherrer.
They discuss his work for Netflix crime drama The Serpent, whilst
also diving into Dominik's journey into music and his career so
far. 


With the Serpent, the majority of the series takes place in
Bangkok, with the rest taking place in various locations,
including: Hong Kong, Paris, New Zealand, and New York. Dominik
composed a lot of the score on location in Bangkok and took
inspiration from the urban, epic, and sinister feel that the city
encapsulates. A portion of the score was recorded in Thailand –
rhythm sections, drums, gongs, and other Thai instruments — all
of which Dominik sampled to create more of a risqué sound to
match the tone of the series.


"Dominik Scherrer has created award-winning music for some of the
finest film and television dramas in recent years. He was
nominated for a Primetime Emmy for the critically-acclaimed
series The Missing, and recently won his second Ivor Novello
Award for his score on Netflix’s Requiem, which he co-composed
with Natasha Khan, aka Bat for Lashes."
