EP6: Soundtracking ft. Matt Biffa, U2 & Bono's Alter Egos
The gang welcome TV & Film Music Supervisor Matt Biffa to discuss his career and impressive CV which includes Netflix's Sex Education, After Life (Ricky Gervais), The End Of The F**cking World and Top Boy.
We also discuss his involvement in Harry Potter. Matt not only pulled together The Weird Sisters feat. Jarvis Cocker alongside Jonny Greenwood and Philip Selway of Radiohead for The Goblet Of Fire, but he also placed the Nick Cave song 'O Children' in the Harry and Hermione dance scene in Deathly Hallows Part 1. Keep your eyes peeled for a bonus episode featuring our whole conversation with Matt.
We also explore the world of U2 and try to dispel the animosity towards the group alongside a deep dive into Bono's alter egos and his other business ventures.
