Sound Builders: Diego Stocco Constructs Blockbuster Music in His Backyard
Posted by Motherboard on Monday, Mar 29, 2010
In episode 2 of Sound Builders, we travel to Burbank, CA to hang out with sound designer and composer Diego Stocco. In addition to writing music for video games and licensing music to little films like Terminator, Diego has committed his life to discovering hidden sounds in objects most people don’t associate with music. He’s used trees, sand and cornflakes to produce unbelievably listenable compositions. In this episode Diego goes shopping at Home Depot for parts to make a brand new instrument. He spends the afternoon building in his backyard and we then get a private performance.
