Kurt Oldman is a Swiss born[1] composer of music for television and film.[2]

Early life and career

Oldman was born in Switzerland to parents who were both musicians. His father attended the Conservatory of Music in Fribourg. His grandfather and great-grandfather were also classical musicians. Oldman received musical training at the Fribourg Conservatory and the Lucerne Swiss Jazz School in Lucerne, Switzerland.[3] As a young child he was inspired by several film music scores, including the score for E.T. The first film that Oldman scored was Endless Escape, a 2.5 hours Swiss-produced feature docu-drama. After this he attended film scoring classes at UCLA during the beginning part of his career.[4]

Career

Oldman produces music mainly for films and TV. His early film work includes the independent films Killer Holiday, (Lionsgate) 2013, Babysitter Wanted, Neighbor, All Along,[2] Holiday Baggage, King of Paper Chasin and Tapia, a documentary about the world champion boxer, Johnny Tapia, which aired on HBO.[5] He has also served as music programmer and arranger on Guardians of the Galaxy, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 and The Spy Who Dumped Me.

In 2015, Oldman started scoring Sony's stop motion animation series SuperMansion, which airs on Sony Crackle and Adult Swim.[6]

Oldman is known for using alternative sounds as a part of his scores, implementing them into his electronic instruments for musical adaptation.[7] The kinds of guitars he has worked with include acoustics, electrics and mandolins.[8]

Michael Allen, a horror reviewer, described the score for Killer Holiday as "a definite must have".[9]
