'Game of Thrones' & 'Westworld' Composer Ramin Djawadi - Variety Artisans

Ramin Djawadi walks us through his process for creating the iconic music of 'Game of Thrones' and 'Westworld,' as well as the development of the Jon Snow & Daenerys Targaryen love theme.

this guy is as important for the show as actors or directos

[JuniorRodigan]

His music WAS the star of the historic LONG NIGHT Battle episode. Hardly any dialogue in the last 15 minutes, the way that piano started and built and built and built. GENIUS.

[HKKetoRecipes]

Probably the best music ever made for TV series. Like the most catchy and incredibly inspiring.

[boginkgo]

Thank you for episode 3 Mr. Djawadi. You are truly a composer of genius !

[michalbotor]

westworld theme always gives me goosebumps and chills. it's a spectacular piece of music.

[youssefhanna]

Love it when people have passion in their work, it really shows. Ramin does a spectacular job in all his projects!

[irfan]

The legend says Drogon is still looking for the writers.

[jeremygiron]

The main theme of Westworld is so good.

[NewsRedial]

Djawadi's music is a bigger factor in what makes GOT great than almost any other soundtrack in TV or movies. It really is the emotional core of the show.

i've always been that kind of person who listens soundtracks while studying or reading, it gives me peace. both soundtracks from the shows above are my favorite of all time and i'm happy this kind of video exists because the music is what really makes a film, so it's nice to know the person behind all that amazing work.

[carejem]

I knew there was a reason the West world music reminded me of Thrones

[NoshuHyena]

It took a third watching for me to notice that during Season 4's sword reforging scene, the music starts out as the Stark theme and flows perfectly into the Lannister theme. It was right there that I realized this guy is one of the greats of our time, always including brilliant musical detail and so much meaning to every moment.

I went to one of the concerts last year, and it was absolutely amazing. Highly recommend!

[dilshaniweragama]

I never skipped the intro of westworld, it gives me chills every time i watch it. Maan this is goals

[JohnBobergMusic]

Had the pleasure of meeting Ramin while I was studying at Berklee (the college he graduated from). Such a genuine and kind man. He was really interested in meeting and hearing from us students. Was incredibly inspiring to me!

[kathrynd]

He is by far my favorite artist ever. No other music has given me the same feeling as some of his music. Especially anything from Westworld.

[phillyjackson]

Can't wait to see what he has cooked up for GOT season 8.

[jwspitz]

I still think Light of the Seven is one of the best pieces of music I've ever heard in my entire life. It literally could not have been more perfect for that iconic scene when Cersei blows up the Sept of Baelor

[AdrianaRamirez-prmc]

I have never experienced so many emotions during a concert until I went to his Game of Thrones concert. A wonderful and very special night. 'Truth' is on my top 3 favorite. My heart sinks every single time it plays.

[MegaVoyager]

he is on his way to be one of the greatest music composer of our time
