HOWA EP 138 - CRISTÓBAL TAPIA DE VEER

I got hip to Cristobal’s work thanks to my recent TV addiction. 

I inhaled all 3 seasons of the white lotus and I think I was only able to get so greedy because of the EXCELLENT music. 

I usually get repelled by TV scores tnh. I feel like I know the tricks and the tones and the emotional devices and I end up paying attention to them in a bad way.

My agitation stops me from getting swept up and carried away. Not so with this man’s work. 

I just felt like it was so deeply connected to the lands and the mystery and power of our animalistic shadows that ride in the narrative. I was taken aback and taken away. 

It’s been a long time since I found myself loving a soundtrack. I had to know more and thankfully Cristobal (I butcher his name in the pod btw to my shame!) has been fantastic to chat with. I reached out, we set a date to chat and it just flowed. I love that. 

Hope you enjoy the fascinating insights he shares. He’s so humble about his ways but he clearly is no pushover, knowing what he believes in and fighting for that. 

I loved this hang. Hope it gets to all to at least buy a shaker if you don’t own one!
