TSAP S02E11: Petri Alanko, Composer (CONTROL, Alan Wake, Quantum Break)

Sam Hughes speaks with composer Petri Alanko, about his
recent work on CONTROL, his process and his unique approach to
thinking about music composition as well as much more!


Petri Alanko (aka Lowland) is a BAFTA nominated Finnish composer,
musician and producer. His dynamic repertoire ranges from the
haunting orchestral/electronic score for Remedy Entertainment’s
psycho-thriller, Alan Wake, to elegant and sophisticated
classical arrangements for Imaginaerum The Movie, based on the
album by symphonic metal band Nightwish. His latest opus is the
twisted and ominuous electronic sci-fi score for Remedy’s next
cinematic blockbuster, Control (composed in co-operation with
Martin Stig Andersen), and he composed music for Remedy’s
critically acclaimed Quantum Break, filled with beautiful
haunting and electronic thematic works. Several other titles are
currently waiting for their release. Alanko’s solo album, “We’ve
Been Here Before”, under his moniker “Lowland” was released in
28th August, 2018.
