The Soundtrack Surgeon

Welcome to The Soundtrack Surgeon: a new podcast about soundtracks and music supervision, hosted by aspiring music supervisor, Riley. The main idea of this podcast is to talk to music supervisors about their work and creative process, as well as to hear some of the stories about how specific projects came together. Other episodes will feature people adjacent to the job in the music and film industries, along with some family and friends along the way. Let's dissect some soundtracks!

On today's episode, I talked to Billy Gottlieb. Billy is an LA-based music supervisor from the Baltimore area. We discussed what led him to the job, his work as a music coordinator on the movies Pulp Fiction and Clueless with Karyn Rachtman, a number of both his past and upcoming projects, and some of the differences between supervising for film vs. television.
