It’s time to kick off Season 3! Today we chat with Jimmy LaValle about his score for the film Something in the Dirt, which premiered in Sundance’s NEXT category on January 23rd of this year.
An established composer also known for his solo work with his band The Album Leaf, Jimmy’s go-to sounds are synths and strings; however, he went out of his comfort zone using woodwinds such as the bass clarinet, and, yes, Levi’s flute.
We chat synthesizers, clarinets, forward motions, studio setup, and the confusion between musicians with common names.
