Film.Music.MediaNathan Barr (Composer: The House With A Clock In Its Walls)[Watch the video interview on our YouTube Channel]
Nathan Barr's passion and curiosity in unique instruments from around the world, including one made from a human femur, has made him one of the most versatile composers working today. His scores for Cabin Fever, Hostel, Hemlock Grove and True Blood have secured his place as a horror composer. But his scores in various other genres like The Americans, Sneaky Pete, and The Son showcase his versatility as a storyteller across any genre.
In this All Access we dive into Nathan's path to becoming a composer as...2019-04-1055 min

This literally could've been called the 'Neverending Podcast Episode,' because I've been working on the track list for months. Every time I thought I had it, a couple new tracks would get released and I knew I had to add them. It's scary too, because just as I finished recording and started on post-production work, there were at least two more tracks released that...2018-10-1800 minFilm.Music.MediaAll Access: Daniel Hart (The Old Man & The Gun)[Watch the video interview on our YouTube Channel]
Daniel Hart may be a relative newcomer to the world of visual media scoring, but he has already established himself as one of the best auteur composers working today. His collaborations with director David Lowery have been extremely notable, and so has his projects with other directors and producers. Daniel is behind the scores to Ain't Them Bodies Saints, A Ghost Story, Pete's Dragon, The Exorcist (TV Series) and many others. We also dissect Daniel's two newest projects. The first is Lowery's latest film The Old Man & The Gun...2018-09-2858 minDJ Pete Savas presents "Press Play"(dog made me) FunkyWhen you want to get your groove on, there's nothing like a bit of house music to get the job done. That's why "(dog made me) Funky!"<BR>
In the beginning there was Chicago, and Chicago had a groove. And from that groove, came the groove of all grooves, and house music was born! Then came Garage House, Acid House, and Gospel House; Deep House and Disco House, Electo House and Euro House, Hard House and Diva House, Big Room House and Melodic House, Soulful House, Tribal House and Techno House.

With three simple words: "Rock the Remix"<BR>
Episode 51 turns the clock back, way back in fact, with a set that's been more than 50 years in the making. Featuring songs from rock legends like Led Zeppelin, The Doors, Cream, Jefferson Airplane, The Beatles and more, this set of classic rock songs should bring back some memories, or maybe help you create some new ones. If you've been to any of the events I've played...2017-06-2700 minDJ Pete Savas presents "Press Play"Triumph!A return to mainstream and house marks Episode 50 of the podcast! Chock-full of fun stuff, this one is a "Triumph!"<BR>
We've hit a milestone for the podcast and arrived at Episode 50! This set in particular, a return to mainstream and house, has been very deliberatly put together. From it's name, to the list of tracks, it's meant to be a celebration of us, all we've been trhough, and everything to come. We were all aflutter when President Obama lit the White House with the rainbow in honor...2017-05-1200 minDJ Pete Savas presents "Press Play"tech-neeqDark, deep, groovy, like molasses for your ears, this is a slice of-tech house through my filter; it's my "tech-neeq."
Another episode that has been a long time in the making; this time, it was a combination of technical and system issues, as well as my depression getting the better of me. But here it is, out at last. Like "Impact," you'll probably either love this or hate it, and as I've said before, that's okay; tech-house is not for everyone, or every mood. I absolutely love the...2017-05-0300 minDJ Pete Savas presents "Press Play"AscensionThey say when you hit rock bottom -- after the impact -- there is only one way to go: up. Join the "Ascension."
This episode has been over two years in the making; not because the music wasn't there, but rather because of the loss of my mother. I kept wanting to record; there had always been a plan for a follow-up to the cycle that was "Escape," "Freefall," and "Impact," but I couldn't bring myself to do it. Then, just as I was ready to get back...2014-06-0100 min

This is an electro/progressive set. You'll either like it or hate it, and that's probably a good thing. This set was pulled together with a minimum of vocal tracks; I was honestly trying not to use any songs with vocals, but that's not always possible.
I will say I had a difficult time pulling this one together, which is why it's been so long since I've released a...2012-01-1200 minDJ Pete Savas presents "Press Play"FreefallThe second in a four-episode set, "Freefall" follows "Escape" in style but not necessarily in theme. This is another mainstream house set you all seem to love so much; and while the music may be upbeat and happy, if you pay attention to the lyrics, you might notice what they have in common.
There are some definite big hits rolling around in here: Adele's "Rolling In the Deep," Gaga's "Judas," Alex Gaudino's "What a Feeling" (which is sure to be a summer anthem), as...2011-05-2700 minDJ Pete Savas presents "Press Play"EscapeWe are, each of us, besieged. Overwhelmed by this and that, problems and circumstances great and small, some of which we can control, and others still both out of our control and uncontrollable. The world hands us lemons, and we make lemonade for a while, until there is no sugar left. The walls close in. The doors close and lock; the windows shutter tightly. The lights dim, and finally go out.
And all that is left is hope; even if it may be borrowed. Hope for something better. Hope for tomorrow. Hope for clarity to see through the siege.
And...2011-05-1300 minDJ Pete Savas presents "Press Play"Everything Old Is New Again Vol. 2Old songs, particularly the good ones, have a way of hanging around. Catchy "hooks" become the basis for a whole new song, as you'll hear in several of these tracks. Then again, the original versions of other were so popular, or so tapped into the zeitgeist, they've become ingrained in every generation to come after them. And then there are the classics, the songs we've been singing for decades, so they remain a part of the current consciousness, but unless given a "freshening," would be unpalatable on a club floor...2011-02-2600 minDJ Pete Savas presents "Press Play"ShineMainstream sets are the most popular with all of you; I'm pretty sure this one will quickly become a favorite once you hear it. Upbeat, happy and bright, it's full of current chart toppers from the Freemasons, Katy Perry, Cher, Rihanna, Kylie and Britney Spears.
Sets like this one seem to come together without any effort. The music seems to fit together easily, almost as if the songs were written to go together. Nowhere is that more evident than in the transitions between "Irresistible" and "Believer," and "Believer" and "...2011-01-2100 minDJ Pete Savas presents "Press Play"Top of 2010This set is a collection of my favorite tracks from 2010. A few of these actually hit #1 on the Billboard Dance chart, and some never even made it onto the chart at all. Many of these may be familiar as I've used them in previous podcasts, while a few are making their debut in this episode of "Press Play." What binds all these songs together, aside from them being my personal favorites from the last year, is the epic quality they all posses.
But what makes a track "epic?" In some cases, it's...2011-01-0900 minDJ Pete Savas presents "Press Play"Pause AgainIt's been a while since the last one; well over 28 months. Between now and then, things have been the way they always are: hectic, rushed, and at times stressful. I know in the last 28 months, I've reached for "Pause" many times; and truth be told, I constructed Episode 18 more for my own benefit than anything else. However, the reaction I got from that set has been the strongest of the all -- many of you contacted me to say how much you enjoyed it, that I started working on this set right away. Once...2010-12-2800 minDJ Pete Savas presents "Press Play"SurgeThe music is strong, hard, edgy. It pulls you, moves you, drives you to get up and dance. It's progressive, electro, even playful. But it always comes as a Surge!
I haven't given you a progressive set for a while, so I thought it was time. You may recognize one of these songs, or if you've been out to hear me live lately, maybe three or four; you all know how I love to throw a little of the dark progressive goodness into every live set. It's the bass; it practically compells...2010-12-0200 minDJ Pete Savas presents "Press Play"Endless SummerIt was a long, hot summer, filled with lots of songs with great staying power; so good in fact, they still sound great months later. It doesn't happen often; a full range of songs first finding their way onto the dance scene in Apil, May and June, still charting, getting airplay, club play and requests come fall, but this group surely did.
So in the spirit of those days at the beach, by the pool, bar-b-que-ing on the back patio, or just crusing down the highway with the top down and the speakers turned up, I present this...2010-10-1300 minDJ Pete Savas presents "Press Play"Joe.My.God.This episode of the podcast was created for the readers of the "Joe.My.God." blog. My introduction to Joe Jervis, and his incredible blog came after REAL BAD XVIII in 2006 (see Episode 6 for an excerpt of that night's party). When I got back home to Salt Lake City, my very excellent friend Richard Dupler (who has a great podcast called "Danceteria," BTW) sent me an email with a link to Joe's blog.
Right there, was a review of my set. Joe said it "took us on a soaring, triumphant journey...2010-07-0100 minDJ Pete Savas presents "Press Play"SchizosonicIt's progressive! No, it's pop! No, it's mainstream! No, it's progressive! Oh hell, it's a little bit of everything. When you can't make up your mind, you might as well just be Schizosonic!2010-05-2000 minDJ Pete Savas presents "Press Play"Audé-liciousThe power of a remix: It can take a ho-hum song, and make it outstanding! Just as every generation has their artists, so do they have their remixers. In the 80's, it was Junior Vasquez and Shep Pettibone. In the 90's, it was Rauhofer and Calderone. Now, there are too many to list; but one stands out from the crowd with a distinct sound, Dave Audé. This podcast episode is a compilation of remixes by Dave Audé, with songs by some of today's most popular artists. While some of these may not be as familiar to yo...2010-04-1400 minDJ Pete Savas presents "Press Play"BounceYou start tapping your toe. Then you nod your head. Then there's the gentle sway, the shimmy of shoulders, the wiggle of the hips. The beat is so infectious, so captivating, so compelling you can't stop yourself! Don't worry, it's okay, go ahead, Bounce! I won't tell anyone, I promise.
"Bounce" has been hanging out on my hard drive for about a month now. I recorded this on at the end of January after getting a few tracks I was really excited about. It's been waiting...2010-02-2600 minDJ Pete Savas presents "Press Play"ExcursionIt's late, you're restless, not ready for sleep but you don't want to be around a lot of people either. So you grab the keys to the car, pop in a CD, and head out. The music has to be just right though. It starts off just like the drive, easy, smooth and silky. But like any road trip, this drive has a few surprises in store; some moments of excitement, an unexpected twist, a little excitement, and then the return home to familiar streets with turns and stretches you can drive without even...2010-02-0700 minDJ Pete Savas presents "Press Play"Deep SpinA little bit funky, a little bit chunky, a little bit electro, and a little bit tribal; this is peak hour, late night, in the house. It's all "house" music, really, just different flavors. In fact, if you want to really quantify this set, the first half is electro-house, while the second half is tribal house. The one song that separates them, Serge Devant's "Addicted," is actually pure progressive house, and it acts as a transition between the two, with a driving yet less-intense bass line to pull you up out of...2010-01-0400 minDJ Pete Savas presents "Press Play"SolsticeThe Winter Solstice is a time steeped in deep history and tradition. Ancient cultures all over the globe have celebrated this time of the year as the "rebirth" of the sun, the beginning of the solar year, as a festival in the name of the ancient Roman God Saturn, and Mitrha, the Persian God of Light. Monuments -- many of which baffle man to this day -- have been built to capture the Solstice (or "midwinter") sunlight: Stonehenge in England, and Ireland's Newgrange Tomb to name just a couple. So ingrained in the ancient...2009-12-2100 minDJ Pete Savas presents "Press Play"EchoesNo, you're not hearing things. Some of these songs sound like other songs you may've heard before. They're not covers, or remixes, but rather entire new songs based on phrases or themes from old ones. It's not a new trick; in fact, the first new song based on another song that I can remember was "Rapper's Delight" by the Sugarhill Gang, which came from Chic's "Good Times." Much of early rap was created this way, in fact. Sampling is now a time-honored tradition these...2009-12-1700 minDJ Pete Savas presents "Press Play"30 PopIt's all about love, sex, and money; it always has been and always will be. Episode 30 of "Press Play" pays homage to the way the world goes 'round with the latest crop of chart-toppers.
There's a few gems in here for you; a new mix of a song that had no less than six videos when it first came out -- one of which was actually banned by MTV -- by Frankie Goes to Hollywood; the return of Janet ("Miss Jackson, if you're nasty!"); the re-emergence of a genuine...2009-12-0600 minDJ Pete Savas presents "Press Play"SocketYou feel the spark. It's shocking at first. Then energizing. It makes you want to move. It makes you want to groove. It makes you want to let go. The sound is dark, hard, edgy, funky, chunky, positively charged! We're talking electro here. Mild, minimal, deep, chunky and funky; it's all here. Consider it a "primer" on the current electro scene.
You may recognize a name or two in here: Wolfgang Gartner, the Starkillers, Dabruck & Klein. As for the rest...well, trust me, they won't disappoint.
This is the...2009-11-1400 minDJ Pete Savas presents "Press Play"ContempoSummer is just about at an end this year, but that's no reason to turn the fun meter back down and get into school-mode (even if you have started back at school already)! So with that in mind, and following hot on the heels of last month's podcast, here's another excursion into mainstream club music that begs the following question:
What do you get when you take a few fresh tracks (some just minted in fact), and throw in some old familiar songs given a new lease on life, as well as a little...2009-08-2500 minDJ Pete Savas presents "Press Play"ScorcherWith temperatures cresting 100 in many parts of the country, there's no let up on the dance floor either! The "heat" started right after this year's Winter Music Conference in Miami. The music just started streaming out from the labels, one hot song, one floor-filler after another. You have to know I wanted to release podcast after podcast filled with tunes from all the artists who's names are part of our everyday conversations: Madonna, Maria, Beyoncé and her sister Solange, the Pussycat Dolls, Rihanna, Pink, Lady GaGa (who's first single, "J...2009-07-2900 minDJ Pete Savas presents "Press Play"Empyrean Beat"Empyrean Beat" is the third installment in the Trance series, created again for the gang at the Dallas Flaggers' Weekend, held every summer in Dallas, TX.
The artwork for "Empyrean Beat" is once again courtesy of Phillip Bryan, who's tie-died flags are a wonder! There are four different flags represented in the set artwork, created a few years ago for some shows he did in Thailand. Phillip notes the impetus for these designs was an effort "to create a design that conveys dimensionality, a volume that normally doesn't come across...2009-07-0500 minDJ Pete Savas presents "Press Play"Goin' to GayDays!2009-04-1700 minDJ Pete Savas presents "Press Play"Avanti!Let's face it, 2008 sucked! No one I know had a good year. Many of my friends lost their jobs and have been having great difficulty finding work. The price of gas went up above $5.00/gallon in some parts of the country before falling back to more accurate levels at around $1.50/gallon. Banks failed, the automotive industry is in great peril, and companies laid off workers at an astounding rate. About the only good thing in 2008 was the music, and I expect that to continue into 2009.
So this set is something of a send off to 2008, with the first...2009-01-2900 minDJ Pete Savas presents "Press Play"HolidazedAt this time of year, it's so easy to get overwhelmed. There's the shopping, the dinners, the crowds, the parties, the shopping, the incessant holiday music, the shopping, the crowds, the traffic, the shopping... It's so easy to get, well, Holidazed!
Rather than try to fill a set with nothing but holiday music (and believe me, it'd be real easy to do that, given the overabundance of holiday dance music out there), I thought I'd go the other direction, and give you all something fun, frenetic, and upbeat to provide...2008-12-2700 minDJ Pete Savas presents "Press Play"TransitionIf there is one constant in the universe, it is, as Bowie said, "Ch-ch-changes." Beginnings and endings. Finding the unexpected. Looking over the fence and dreaming about how much better it could be. "Transition" is about all of those things, all of those changes, the unexpected twists and turns, disappointments, hopes and dreams, and new directions.
It's odd, actually, how much this set is a reflection of where I find myself right now, at this moment, at the end of one opportunity that didn't work out, and facing another opportunity in the...2008-11-2800 minDJ Pete Savas presents "Press Play"MoreMore beats, more bass, more funk, more chunk. "More" is a bit, well, more. This one is the result of too much good music to fit into one set, but definitely not the "left-overs," or the "B-sides." Honestly, nothing could be further from the truth.
This set is a bit broader in it's presentation. You're going to find everything in here from pop, to house, to progressive, to dark 3:00 am music, to chunky house, and even a touch of trance. It may feel a bit scattered at first listen, and...2008-09-2600 minDJ Pete Savas presents "Press Play"MiracleWhen a song is too good you can't decide between two mixes, what do you do? Why, use 'em both, of course! Using a technique called "bracketing, or "bookending," Miracle wraps 11 other tracks, some of the most popular on the dance floor right now, along with a couple that will be big real soon, between two mixes of Oceanlab's beautiful new single, "Miracle." What you get is a set that comes full circle, right back where it started, but not quite in the same way.
It's a nice...2008-09-2600 minDJ Pete Savas presents "Press Play"BlacklightAn excursion into Tribal sounds, from minimal to layered and progressive, this one will speak to your primitive side. Some of these tracks may be familiar to club-goers (especially if you've hit parties like "Magnitude" and "Aftershock"), some may not. You may even find the same with the artists; there were some I'd known for years and some new names I'd never encountered before, but will certainly be on the lookout for in the future. I had more tracks for this than I had time, and cutting some of them...2008-09-0400 minDJ Pete Savas presents "Press Play"PauseRelax. Breathe. Chill. Pause. In this day and age, where rush, rush, rush; go, go, go, now, now, now, is the way things are done, it's time to sit for a while. As such, I'm really proud to be presenting this set.
Taking a break from the usual, this is my first foray into Chill music. It's a lot harder than you might think, really. The music has to be more in so many ways. Sound and mood and even words become more important when there's not a beat to drive them...2008-08-0400 minDJ Pete Savas presents "Press Play"Heaven's ReachA Trance set that's a bit more on the progressive side. This set is named after, and features images of, another set of flags, made by "Texas Flagger Boy," Phillip Byran, for this year's Dallas Flagger Weekend festivities.
Flaggers and Poi Spinners are such an integral part of a club experience for me. They add beauty and grace to a night out, giving the music another dimension, and expressing so much emotion through movement and color. It's an art; these guys practice constantly, and it take just as much strength and stamina...2008-07-0500 minDJ Pete Savas presents "Press Play"NextAre you ready for summer? The heat has already arrived, and I'm not just talking about the weather. Episode 16 of the podcast is ready to get your summer off to a rollicking start with some scorching tracks. Representing the circuit tribal and diva grooves, the progressive scene, a little retro fabulous, and good old reliable house music, you'll find a little bit of everything (just how I like it) in this mix. In addition, there's an exclusive remix of a hot new track, "I Remember" by Kaskade, done just for me (and...2008-06-2100 minDJ Pete Savas presents "Press Play"MorningMorning comes. For some, the promise of a new day; for others, the end of an amazing night. Or is it? "Morning music" has a sound of its own. While gentle in one respect, it's still got enough punch, enough drive, to keep a crowd going long after the sun has risen. My first real understanding of "Morning music" came as I prepared to play REAL BAD in 2006. I knew what the sound was, but had never really called it "Morning music" before then. Lately, however, there's been a new...2008-06-0900 minDJ Pete Savas presents "Press Play"ZephyrThe zephyr winds are blowing, hot and fresh. They surge from the heat of creation, bringing with them the familiar strains of warmer music, happier times, and the light, carefree feel of the summer-to-come. "Zephyr" is my attempt at catching this spirit, and of setting the tone for what is surely to be a fantastic summer season.
This set starts off a little on the darker side, with an unexpected sound from Cosmic Gate, best known for there trance sound. But this progressive kicker from them sets up a nice groove from which to start a set. At...2008-05-2600 minDJ Pete Savas presents "Press Play"Golden BasketMusic from "The Golden Basket;" KUMA|SF's monthly party, held April 2008 at Club 8 on Folsom. Filled with funky progressive tunes, this episode of the podcast was put together before the night of the party; it's not a "live" recording, but I used all of the songs in this set (except one) that night. If you were there, this should take you back to that night; if not, why the hell not? :)
See you bears in May for the final (?) Basket! Don't forget to bring your toga!2008-05-0400 minDJ Pete Savas presents "Press Play"ThawIt's been a long, hard, cold winter; so bring on the Thaw! This set is dedicated to the return of spring, of longer days, warmer weather, fewer clothes, and just plain fun! With that in mind, you'll find this episode filled with songs to warm you up, lift your spirits, make you bob your head, shake your butt, smile, laugh, and generally bring the sunshine back into your life. So go get out in the Springtime air, Thaw out!2008-04-0400 minDJ Pete Savas presents "Press Play"HeartIt's February, and time for as much love as you can handle. Thus, I present "Heart," dedicated to the two loves of my life:
First is David, my husband of 10 years, my rock and my wellspring, my first, and my reason for remaining in Salt Lake City. And now there is Paul, my heart, my soul and my inspiration; the man who came out of nowhere, and wove himself so completely into my being I feel as if he's always belonged there. I could not ask for two better men in my life, and...2008-02-2000 minDJ Pete Savas presents "Press Play"Et tu, Paco?"Et tu, Paco?" was constructed using only tracks given to me by my friend (and fellow DJ) Paco, this set is my way of thanking him for the gift. The name of this set is a play on the words spoken to Brutus by Julius Caesar right after being stabbed in the back by Brutus. Rather than convey a sense of betrayal, as was Caesar's intention, my use of "And you, Paco?"

It's something to be grateful for, actually; especially in light of the track listing for this set. Here are some old favorites, made fresh again, and honestly, they've never really sounded better! Spanning eras from the '60's to the '90's, from "classic rock" to "new wave," with artists as diverse as Pink Floyd, Aretha Franklin, Donna Summer, the Eurythmics and David Bowie to name a few, each of these songs has been tremendously...2008-01-0500 minDJ Pete Savas presents "Press Play"PassionistaWhat is "Passionista?' I think of it as passion with an attitude.

The tracks...2007-10-1800 minDJ Pete Savas presents "Press Play"Real Bad XVIII (Excerpt)This is a segment of the set from REAL BAD XVIII, held at 1015 in San Francisco on September 24, 2006.

These songs, some new, some old, have a particular resonance to them. Perhaps it's the minor key most are composed in; or the powerful bass lines; or the haunting vocal quality; or even the sadness that pervades them in one way or another. Whatever it is, they all have a certain feeling of melancholy to them, that drove me to bring them together this way.
This set also marks my first foray into "...2007-08-0900 minDJ Pete Savas presents "Press Play"SoarFrom pop to trance, this set covers the bases; high and happy, deep, funky and progressive, with a smooth, calm finish.
