102. Cristobal Tapia de Veer live at M for Montreal
For the 102nd episode of Creative Mood, I’m thrilled to unveil my conversation with Emmy Award–winning composer Cristobal Tapia De Veer, recorded live at M for Montreal’s 20th anniversary, presented in collaboration with Billboard Canada, within the framework of SuperVISION.I had the honour of co-hosting this live conversation alongside Heather Adamo of Vapor Music, in front of a packed room of industry professionals from around the world.Cristóbal’s work on The White Lotus, Utopia, Black Mirror, Babylon Berlin and National Treasure treats music as an integral part of the storytelling, not just a background element.In this conversation, we retrace his early life, from his childhood and his parents’ work, to how those influences shaped his worldview growing up in Chile. We explore his first steps into music through various bands, his early fascination with evolving technologies, and how those tools expanded his creative language. From there, we move into his current body of work and the philosophy that underpins his uncompromising approach to composition.Moments like this mean a great deal to me. Creative Mood continues to be recognized for its sensitive, human, and deeply intentional approach to creativity. Being trusted to hold conversations of this depth, on real stages, within meaningful professional ecosystems, feels incredibly affirming.Big thanks to the whole M team for the trust and care. To everyone who stayed after, who shared reflections, who said this approach felt necessary, even healing, thank you. Holding someone’s creative story is a responsibility I never take lightly.Thank you, Cristóbal, for your openness, your honesty, and for meeting us right at the heart of your work.This conversation took place as part of SuperVISION, an international gathering dedicated to music supervision, co-created by M for Montreal and Mundial Montreal, bringing together leading professionals working across film, television, advertising, gaming and screen-based media.For everything Creative Mood 🧿https://linktr.ee/Creative_MoodTo dive into Cristobal Tapia de Veer’s universe 🎶https://www.instagram.com/cristobaltapiadeveerAnd by the way, here are 3 good reasons to subscribe to the channel:👉 It allows me to keep producing the podcast.👉 The more subscribers there are, the more people say yes to my invitations.👉 It also makes partnerships possible, which helps finance the project.
