Exploring Television through Sonic Hearts | Redefining Music Discussions via Podcasts
Siddhartha Khosla, a renowned film and television composer, has made a significant impact in the industry with his unique approach to scoring. His work can be heard on popular platforms like Apple Podcasts, iHeartRadio, Spotify, Overcast, Stitcher, TuneIn, Google Play, Soundcloud, YouTube, and other favourite podcast players.
Khosla's music extends beyond podcasts, with his original songs gracing numerous TV shows and major advertising campaigns. He has also scored comedy feature films, such as "Fat Camp", and Hulu's original series "Marvel's Runaways". One of his most notable works is scoring NBC's hit drama series "This Is Us".
Khosla's scoring approach is marked by live recording sessions, often using creative, unconventional instruments for authentic sound textures. For instance, his Emmy-nominated theme for "Only Murders in the Building" featured unconventional live percussion, such as recording with Home Depot buckets to produce street-musician-like drums, emphasizing a raw, organic sound feel.
In addition to live recording sessions, Khosla also uses live orchestras to enhance the thematic depth of his scores. He believes that an orchestra adds emotional weight and texture that elevates the storytelling, as seen in shows like "Only Murders in the Building". His collaboration style extends internationally, working with top-tier musicians and editors to craft scores that blend unique instrumentation and subtle musical clues that support narrative layers.
Khosla's background includes fusion across genres, starting with hip-hop influences in documentary scoring. This broad stylistic palette is enriched by global and diverse musical collaborations. His method balances melodic catchiness and emotional resonance, frequently recorded live to capture authentic performances rather than relying solely on digital or synthesized sounds.
Apart from his work in TV and film, Khosla is also the music producer of the band, Goldspot. He is an award-winning film and television composer, scoring ABC's new comedy series "The Kids Are Alright" and CBS' comedy series "Me, Myself and I".
