Score to Screen with Ludvig Forssell (Death Stranding)

Ludvig Forssell is the featured guest on this Score to Screen podcast. The Death Stranding composer recalls his efforts experimenting with everyday household objects to create alien-like sounds which became the backbone of the eerie score. From legendary game creator Hideo Kojima, comes a genre-defying open world action adventure for PS4, starring Norman Reedus, Mads Mikkelsen, Léa Seydoux and Lindsay Wagner. In the near future, mysterious explosions have rocked the globe, setting off a series of supernatural events known as the Death Stranding. With otherworldly creatures plaguing the landscape, and mass extinction imminent, it’s up to Sam Porter Bridges to travel across the ravaged wasteland and save humanity from impending annihilation. Ludvig Forssell is a Swedish composer, songwriter, and voice actor, as well as an audio director at Kojima Productions. For the Metal Gear series, he composed the soundtracks for Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes and Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain. Forssell also wrote the lyrics for "Sins of the Father," performed by Donna Burke and “Quiet’s Theme,” performed by Stefanie Joosten. As an actor, he provided the voices of minor characters and the likeness for the Shago Platoon commander. The Score to Screen podcast series is produced and hosted by Crossover Media's Max Horowitz.
