Nathan Tyler Johnson is a film composer, songwriter and music producer. He was born in Washington, D.C. in 1976 and grew up in Colorado. After living in England in the mid-2000s, Johnson relocated to the East coast of the U.S. where he launched a live touring project with his band, The Cinematic Underground. His work with the band opened up doors into film composing and his first musical score was for the award-winning film ''Brick''.〔(The New York Times )〕 Johnson is also a member of a small design workshop called The Made Shop. He designed the album cover for ''How to Save a Life'' by The Fray as well as their follow up album artwork which was a collaboration with brother and founder of The Made Shop, Marke Johnson. ==Film score composing== In 2005, Johnson composed the score to the neo-noir film ''Brick'', which was written and directed by his cousin Rian Johnson. The score features traditional instruments such as the piano, trumpet and violin, and also contains unique and invented instruments such as the wine-o-phone, metallophone, treated pianos, filing cabinets, and kitchen utensils. The entire score was recorded in Johnson's Bournemouth apartment using a single microphone and a PowerBook computer. The score was hailed by The Chicago Tribune as "perhaps the most arresting soundtrack of the year to date" and Johnson was nominated for the Satellite award for Best Original Score from the International Press Academy. Johnson finished the score for Rian Johnson's second film, ''The Brothers Bloom'' (2008), expanding the pallet used in ''Brick'' to include strings and woodwinds for the sound of a "back porch orchestra". Members of The Cinematic Underground have been involved with all of Johnson's scores. As well as producing the music for ''Brick'' and ''The Brothers Bloom'', Johnson has produced albums for The Cinematic Underground, Katie Chastain, and New Volunteer. In 2012, Johnson composed the score for Rian Johnson's critically acclaimed third film, ''Looper''. Through his collaborations with Rian Johnson, Johnson then teamed up with Joseph Gordon-Levitt (who starred in ''Brick'' and ''Looper'') to score Gordon-Levitt's directorial debut ''Don Jon'' (2013). In 2014, Johnson composed the score for science fiction action film ''Young Ones''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Nathan Johnson (musician)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
